The RX10M4 is such an awesome camera. Autofocus is comparable to the A9. Best travel camera with 24-600mm equivalent lens. Crop of the RX is 2.73.

This building has been abandoned for many years. It looks like it was a store of some kind. There are no houses next to it and it is at the end of the earth :-). I can’t imagine what was sold here. It might have just been a workman’s or farmer’s shed used for repairing equipment.

I was testing out a wide angle lens attachment, which I got for Christmas, which attaches to a 18-55 mm lens, Very interesting. I am standing on the stone road right in front of the building and still managed to get in the entire building and then some. It actually works quite well for an inexpensive attachment.

The Kranhaus ("crane house") is a 17-story buildings in the Rheinauhafen of Cologne/Germany. Its shape, an upside-down "L", is reminiscent of the harbor cranes that were used to load cargo off and on to ships. The building is approx. 62 meters in height and is designed by Aachen architect Alfons Linster and Hamburg-based Hadi Teherani of BRT Architekten. (see Wikipedia)

Hrvati mercenaries in the 30 Years War (1618-1648) wore scarves with a characteristic knot, often tied for them by their ladies. This entranced Louis XIV and the French court, who adopted the style, calling it “cravat”. Somewhere along the line “Hrvatska” just proved too hard for non-Slavic speakers, and devolved into the English word “Croatia”, which isn’t as different from the original as it looks. The country is still rife with necktie stores like this one. The checked pattern is also traditional. Didn’t actually see a Starbucks anywhere.

Photo taken on Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence, Kansas. Blocks and blocks of nicely decorated storefronts and lights on trees made for a very picturesque downtown area this time of year. And with colorful lights, "sale" signs, cold weather outside and warm weather inside, the stores looked especially inviting! Of course, virtually none of them were open at 7 a.m. when I was walking around with my camera, but they still provided me with some good photo-taking opportunities!

I think it appropriate that the deli where I get my German foods is in this Euro-esque building. All the Liverwurst, etc that I have been told to cut back on.
