International Mother Language Day is a worldwide annual observance held on 21 February to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and to promote multilingualism.

Therefore I placed a spoon on the Kindle Reader on my iPad and captured this Welsh novella , not that there are many Welsh Language Books available on Amazon.
The leopard (Panthera pardus) is one of the five extant species in the genus Panthera, a member of the Felidae.It occurs in a wide range in sub-Saharan Africa, in some parts of Western and Central Asia, southern Russia, and on the Indian subcontinent to Southeast and East Asia. It is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List because leopard populations are threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation, and are declining in large parts of the global range. Contemporary records suggest that the leopard occurs in only 25% of its historical global range. (Wikipedia)

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
It's International Cat Day today and I have always thought Milu has something international about her with her Latvian name and her Parisian style. Even though she is 15 years old, had most of her teeth removed a few months ago and has to take daily medication for thyroid issues, she is still our sweet glamour puss
A Slovak flatbed, Polish and Czech coaches, and a German carriage for oversize loads. That all in one special train, headed by SM31-021.
Every now and then there is a train heading out from Wrocław. On its hook is a power generator (they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes), which is headed for the harbour of Gdynia for further shipment abroad. The train takes the least used routes to not interfere with standard train traffic. The last part of the route usually leads via Czersk, Kościerzyna and Somonino (on the old coal mainline).
However, yesterday the train was routed differently. After a night spent in Chojnice, it set out in the early morning towards Czersk, and then further down the old Ostbahn towards Starogard Gdański, where it was to spend the night between 07.12 and 08.12.2024.
I was very happy to catch a train here because usually nothing really interesting uses the Ostbahn between Czersk and Tczew, and there are a few interesting spots to make use of here.
The pictured train was running as 553000 from Czersk to Pszczółki. In Pszczółki it will most likely wait until the coming night to make the last stretch to Gdynia. Here it is seen in very humid conditions, as it was arriving at Kaliska, to wait for an upcoming regional train from the other direction.
I must say that I'm personally extremely happy with this picture, must be one of my personal favorites of the last few months.

Die Älteren von euch werden sich erinnern, Werner Höfer moderierte die oben benannte Sendung sonntagsmorgens im WDR-Fernsehen (Erstes Programm, deutschlandweit).
Man sah ihn und seine politischen Gäste vor lauter Zigarren- und Zigarettenqualm kaum. "Das waren noch" Persönlichkeiten und Kaliber, die WH ruhig und mit Autorität durch die Sendung führte.
Er war mit der Theaterkritikerin und Solotänzerin der Kölner Oper, Elfriede Scheurer verheiratet. Aus dieser Ehe ging Candida Höfer hervor, die, dank Becher-Schule, zur international anerkannten Fotografin wurde (Professur, Documenta Kassel, Biennale Venedig etc.).
Verzeiht mir die Verwegenheit, dass ich mich neben ein Bild der berühmten Fotografin gehängt habe. Ich konnte der Versuchung nicht widerstehen ... warum erzähle ich später ...
Der Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, das Höfers Bild in einer Verkleinerung und signiert, in einer kleinen Serie für 1300 Franken verkauft, wurde im Jahr 2000 eröffnet. Eine 2015 eröffnete Erweiterung dient als Ausstellungsgebäude der Hilti Art Foundation.
Mit der Ausstellung "Candida Höfer, Liechtenstein" präsentierten das Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein und die Hilti Art Foundation die erste gemeinsam konzipierte und integrative Ausstellung.
Beide Museen haben einen gemeinsamen Eingang und sind unterirdisch, über ein Untergeschoss miteinander verbunden.
Zwischen den beiden Gebäuden besteht eine Gasse, die Höfer hier fotografiert hat. Jedoch sieht man hier nur die Kunstsammlung. Das grüne Glasgebäude gehört nicht zum Museumsensemble.
Candida Höfer reiste im September 23 kurz an, um mit einer Kleinbildkamera Motive zu suchen. Sie fotografierte die etwa 1,8m hohen 20 Ausstellungsbilder dann, innerhalb von 10 Tagen, mit einer großformatgen Digitalkamera, in beiden Museen und der Stadt (dem Land, dem Staat).
