Remote Controlled Sailboat


Yesterday when I was walking through the city and the outer areas of the city, I saw people navigating remote control sailboats at a lake. It was a very sunny day and not like an October day, we still have mixed weather but the last week was very sunny and then it’s great to see all the people outside with different hobbies and activities. Most of the RC sailboats were far away on the lake, but one of the guys noticed me with my camera and navigated his RC sailboat close to me so that I can take pictures, that … Continue reading Remote Controlled Sailboat

Half And Half: Heaven And Water Divided By Industrial Architecture


I shot the photo in this post a few weeks ago when I walked a long march to the Schellbruch in Lübeck. Before I arrived, I had to walk along the Trave River and through the industrial area you see in the photo. To be honest, this is a photo I find very attractive.

I also like how the warehouse does cut the heaven and … Continue reading Half And Half: Heaven And Water Divided By Industrial Architecture

Here I will show you the original and the cropped photo of the water pump in our garden and the water jet, you need to click on the images to enlarge them. Continue reading Water Pump In Our Garden

Excursion to the Domsee in Ratzeburg


We had a ride yesterday and visited some places in our federal state Schleswig-Holstein. On our tour we also drove to the village called Ratzeburg. This is a small town but surrounded by much nature including several lakes. On the photo above you can see a smaller lake that is called Domsee. You see a small cathedral in the background that is probably the reason why the lake is called “Domsee”, because “Dom” is German and means something like “Church” or “Cathedral” and the ending “see” means “sea” or “lake”. There was a small bistro where we bought some scoops … Continue reading Excursion to the Domsee in Ratzeburg
