Essen central station, obviously. And buses swooshing by, long exposure style.

A seashell is never empty. It is filled with many things.

It holds the sounds of crashing waves and songs that mermaids sing…

Two tourists are standing in the church square between the cathedral and the baptistery in Parma, Italy, discussing the selfie they just took. In the background you can see the seminary of Parma.

I wanted to walk on this pedestrian bridge but my time at this terminal didn’t allow it..... this time..! ;)

This carpet of Lobelia in the warm evening light was quite lovely.

The architecture of this room is so rich that it almost seems to cause nausea while your brain trying to process all this texture from the ground to the ceiling, it really makes you all chicken skin.

 

I cannot resist to transcript the text about this hall from wikipedia in here, it's really amazing:

 

The Sala de los Abencerrajes (Hall of the Abencerrages) derives its name from a legend according to which the father of Boabdil, the last sultan of Granada, having invited the chiefs of that line to a banquet, massacred them here.[citation needed] This room is a perfect square, with a lofty dome and trellised windows at its base. The roof is decorated in blue, brown, red and gold, and the columns supporting it spring out into the arch form in a remarkably beautiful manner. Opposite to this hall is the Sala de las dos Hermanas (Hall of the two Sisters), so-called from two white marble slabs laid as part of the pavement. These slabs measure 500 by 220 cm (15 by 7½ ft). There is a fountain in the middle of this hall, and the roof — a dome honeycombed with tiny cells, all different, and said to number 5000 — is an example of the "stalactite vaulting" of the Moors.

A thick layer of snow had remained on my skylight window. Now at a sunny day with clear blue sky, it began to melt. HMM

Down we are now, at the ground of the Sianok Canyon in West Sumatra/Indonesia.

 

The photo was taken in 1983 with my analog Nikon FE camera and 35mm slide film, and now scanned with Nikon Coolscan film scanner.

"St. Marien and St. Nikolai" became an exhibition place for flowering plants and works of art included in the garden canopy.

 

The historic parish church in Beelitz was first mentioned in 1247. Over the centuries it has been the victim of several fires and has been rebuilt several times. In 2013, a significant need for renovation was identified. The desolate condition does not remain hidden. I guess, that's why the church was included in the state horticultural show in order to generate some money for the refurbishment.

Very softly processed with Flypaper Textures as they were lovely au naturel too :-)

Saint Brigid’s Day (or Imbolc / Là Fhèill Brìghde in Scottish Gaelic), on February 1st, marks the start of Celtic Spring. Snowdrops are the first sign of spring and are called Saint Brigid's footsteps.

 

It is time for hibernating animals (like us) to wake up, rise and shine. Let's celebrate the arrival of longer, warmer days and the early signs of spring!
