to a new week which will probably get gloomier when the tighter lockdown begins on Wednesday ...
Happy Blue Monday!

If you love Anemones like I do, you can find more of them

The Gäuboden is a region in Lower Bavaria in southern Germany without any clear geographic or cultural boundaries, that covers an area about 15 kilometres wide south of the River Danube and the Bavarian Forest, beginning opposite Wörth an der Donau and stretching as far as Künzing. The largest town in the region is Straubing, which is often called the centre of the Gäuboden. The Gäuboden is one of the largest loess regions in southern Germany. The farmland is nearly flat, no field borders or trees that might hinder the usage of huge machines.

This weekend started with a full-size storm, we used Saturday afternoon for a trip around the Schiedersee, an artificial lake in the Lippe area. The weather was extremely dull and nature did not really offer the typical Autumn colours. Finally I found these fun boats to add some colours to the scenery. Schieder-Schwalenberge, Lippe, Germany
So the new year has begun. Scary, it didn't start very well right here, hope it will get better soon enough. Anyway, pictures must flow! I've got quite a few from this autumn, I couldn't manage any visit lately, pity, the snow was beautiful this weekend. Hopefuly I will get my chance to shoot it once more!
Wanted a Sunrise, but poor planing meant I didn't get here till gone 10am, it was one of those days when everything went against me.
Butternut squash with a dollop of blue cheese on a wee piece of crisp bread......delicious, healthy! Gone fast....
I was up early on the day I had a long drive (this picture was taken at 4:00am) and this gave me the chance to see another lovely sunrise. The fishermen in this trawler were obviously up even earlier than I was as they leave for the day's fishing!
Coming south into Broad Pass, the extra work train heading for Crown Point comes into view amongst the fast changing fall color. The work train was needed to help aid in repairs to the line to Seward after a glacial dam failed and washed out the line.
