The cold and the first snowstorms lurk in Berlin. Our planes can hardly move through the snow and flights are delayed, but the Luft Hansa pilots do not give up and check the weather to be able to fly as soon as possible.
There is always a glimmer of hope after the storm.

The Stockholm Rederi AB Svea´s turbine steamship Regin photographed by Malmö photographer Otto Ohm in the 1920s (prob.). The ship, built by Oskarshamns Varv in 1921 (several years late because of lack of metals during WWI). The 71 m passenger ship (which also carried some freight) was from 1921 to 1939 on routes from Copenhagen (alternatively Malmö) to Stockholm and either Sundsvall or Luleå further north.
After WW2 Regin was primarily used on routes from Stockholm or Norrtälje to Turku, Finland.
In 1963 the ship was sold to Rederi Ab Göteborg - Frederikshavn, for use on the route Göteborg - Frederikshamn (Denmark). It was renamed Prinsessan Regina.
Prinsessan Regina was scrapped in Göteborg in 1967. See Less
(November 14, 1906 – August 8, 1985), generally known by her stage name Louise Brooks, was an American dancer, model, showgirl and silent film actress, noted for popularizing the bobbed haircut. Brooks is best known for her three feature roles including two G. W. Pabst films: in Pandora's Box (1929), Diary of a Lost Girl (1929), and Prix de Beauté (Miss Europe) (1930). She starred in 17 silent films and, late in life, authored a memoir, Lulu in Hollywood.

CORNELIA: "Oh my! It's 12:02 and I said I would meet my best friend Moesje at 12:00, however it's not anyone's fault. Fairy Mum is kept very busy weaving her magic all over the place. But now on my way to Moesje after walking through the magic portal between Daddy's house and Mummy Marian's house. Goodness! It's raining like cats and dogs here in Groningen! Luckily I remembered to bring my umbrella as well as my fancy old handbag that Daddy calls by another name.
I am nearly there, my best friend! Please wait for me! I can't wait to see you and go shopping!"
*Gasps and sighs with relief when she sees Moesje standing under a red umbrella, awaiting her arrival.*
"There you are Moesje, my best friend! I'm so sorry to keep you waiting! Poor Fairy Mum was a bit late opening the portal between Daddy's house and Mummy Marian's house because there was a girl who needed a pretty gown to wear to a ball, but she only had rags to wear. Still, Fairy Mum sorted a pretty dress for her, and now I am here!
I hope you are ready to shop up a storm!" *Giggles.* "We'll buy nail polish for your paws and lipsticks that suit both our muzzles, oh and lace for you Moesje, so you can have a new frock, and perfume and ribbons and some chocolate too! We mustn't forget the chocolate!"
My bear Cornelia has made friends with a little bear named Moesje www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/galleries/721577217879.... Moesje is a beautiful Bukowski Bear from Paal in Belgium. She has come to live with Mummy Marian (Marian Kloon (on and off)).She had been waiting in the dark corner of a shop with other bears for a long time, hoping someone would pick her up. All the bears were picked up, except Moesje. An appeal was made on the Internet and Mummy Marian sprang into action immediately! Moesje needs friends to love her, and Cornelia did not hesitate, for she has so much love to give to Moesje. Now Moesje's days are full of happiness. Moesje is awaiting Cornelia underneath her own red brolly as you can see here: www.flickr.com/photos/66094586@N06/53698250463/ or in the first comment below.
I love and collect vintage and antique accessories, including umbrellas and parasols, some going back as far as the mid 1800s. However, Cornelia is holding a stub handled Art Deco parasol from the 1920s, as can be clearly seen by the gaily coloured Jazz Age stylised floral pattern on the inside. It is a rarity amongst my collection, which is made up mostly of British pieces. This is an American example, made by The Perfection Manufacturing Company, which was located at 826 to 830 South 18th Street, St. Louis, Missouri.
Cornelia, I found in an antique and vintage market quite recently. She is a vintage edition Russ Bear from their Mohair Collection. She is made of deliberately mottled mohair to give her that vintage look. One of a limited edition of 10,000, she was designed by artist Carol Hosfstad and is completely handmade.
Four members of a German middle-class family posing in a small open tourer on a country road in summertime. It's hard to tell from this angle, but the vehicle is most probably registered in the German state of Mecklenburg (M = Land Mecklenburg). Can anybody help identify the car in the photo?
Country of origin: Germany
Taken last Saturday while out with one of my Flickr friends Sue.
As the sunset was a little disappointing, I mainly tried long exposure shots, this was one of a very few shorter exposures with just a 0.9 ND hard grad.
It's not often that a classic Bugatti pulls up behind you in a petrol station, but this one did exactly that, and I was quite excited and just had to get a quick shot of it.
I was expecting the driver to have a long leather coat with a flying helmet, but it fact it was middle-aged lady, dressed normally, who emerged from the shop, climbed in and drove off, with the car making a very authentic noise from the exhaust. Of course, things are often not what they seem, and a bit of research revealed that this is a replica of a 1920s Bugatti T35 and has a high quality fibreglass body in vivid French Blue.
Based on a June 1970 VW Beetle donor car, it is classed as a Historic Vehicle. Although the V5C records it as a 1.2-litre, the owner believes that it is actually fitted with a twin port 1.6-litre VW engine. With so little weight to lug around, it is said to be remarkably quick and will easily cruise at 70mph in 4th although the wind buffeting puts you off going much faster!
It is not known when the car was built but the current owner acquired it from a rally driver after it had been in storage for several years.
