A nice old building in Norrköping, by the water.
This is my second REAL HDR. I think it's about time I learn how to do these properly. Single-raw HDRs are just not the same thing.
An old Ford (or maybe a Mercury) and Chevrolet truck wait out their last days before being recycled. Both with dual rear wheels. This scrap metal place had all sorts of neat old trucks. They perhaps do a lot of farm clean ups.
We walked past this old man sitting on a stairway, all alone smoking. After walking maybe 50 meters I went back to him and asked if I could take a photo of him. Well, I could.

This small and old company only has 6.4km railway in the countryside and that's enough for me to be crazy about these attractive trains, views and the atmosphere.
View of Heidelberg's old city center from the castle.
The gloomy and cold weather did not prevent us from capturing the beauty of the city.
Heidelberg has been labeled a romantic town, as a relic of the period of Romanticism. This is used to attract more than 3.5 million visitors every year.

on the horse track at nad al shiba i met this old french man who represented AP and he was waiting for his wife to come back from the horse stables. . . . while waiting he was telling me about how this was the first time for him in dubai and his insight about our city.
These old Barcelona Hazelnut trees are at my folks' place, and have been there 50-100 years.Looks a bit "Middle-Earth-ish" today. Click the tag "hazelnut" for others I've posted.
If anyone can guess where this is I'll give you something cool! The answer.
Comments & Faves are greatly appreciated! :D!
Nothing like a hometown parade. Here we see the towns first fire car, and the latest edition to the fleet.
A neglected old house located just underneath the wonderful Seven Sisters. Tried to keep this one finetuned but I so easily get carried away. Not too much, though :)
The feeling which i got from looking at this couple, was how they are not looking at each other or talking, but obviously derive comfort from each other's company.
This place and I have quite a history. Around twenty years ago I lived in the Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti area and spent most of my days here. A2 is great but it's full of college students and I preferred the company in this place in downtown Ypsi. The whole place save the bar stools and restrooms was just like they'd been in 1910 or so. Old, gorgeous wood, tin ceiling, a hand carved bar with hunting scenes along the edge and those solid old wooden booths along the walls bellow tiny windows. Nice and dark.
The clientele was a dozen or two old geezers, some of whom had been drinking there for twenty, thirty years. They had a little club, "The Losers Club", and it only took me four months to be welcomed as the only member bellow sixty. Great guys who had all, for one reason or another, given up on life and retreated into the bottle. They were right up my alley.
I'd take the bus in and drink fifty cent drafts of Blatz and, when the ancient bartender was in a good frame of mind to turn off the country western radio station, play Patsy and Hank and Roy Orbison on the jukebox. I must of heard, "boy, you sure do love music", hundreds of times. Literally. If I was really in my cups I'd bring my guitar and play country tunes for the group. I dearly loved the place.
I just moved back to Ypsi and the place has been gentrified. Kinda' broke my heart. I wouldn't go in anyway as I haven't had a drink in years and they don't serve food.
Old times, good times. Though now I try to take life on it's own terms instead of hiding in a glass of Blatz.
Old Faithful Geyser eruption viewed from north east of the geyser on a cool clear spring morning. I like this view of the geyser, better than from the viewing area, in the early part of the day.

old letter in pencil from early part of Twentieth Century. Reads in part, "... must not allow yourself to become depressed. You must fightt it or someone will suffer besides you then think how perfectly selfish of you to want things your own way then cry because they can't be!
Portrait of an old woman (with an amazing laugh) who I met hiking up to a monastery in Axum, Ethiopia. She lived on the top of the mountain and helped take care of the grounds at the monastery. She had a hard time keeping a straight face for this photo...
Old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
