Half glazed, half unglazed, these earthenware water jars have remained unchanged in terms of production since the 11th century.
In Myanmar, the Myanmarese bury them in the ground to keep their water stocks cool. They are considered indispensable for the storage of fresh water.
Another view of the former administrative building of the HypoVereinsbank, currently under renovation as part of the revitalisation of the Tucherparkviertel under the project name Eisbachviertel.
The area was initially developed end of the 1960ties by the Bayerische Vereinsbank (became HypoVereinsbank, now Unicredit Bank) with office spaces and a hotel. Most of the buildings are empty, under renovation and they are listed structures nowadays.

For Looking Close...on Friday's #round theme
A row of watercolour crayons. (slightly less macro, a little more "close up" this week)
Quartier du Polet, Dieppe. Un déjeuner chez un ami qui a ouvert un restaurant que je conseille : La Cale. Atour une ambiance de port sous la brume. Le Polet est un vrai quartier populaire qui n'as pas encore été poli par la tendance vintage post BoBo... ça ne saurait tarder !

District Polet, Dieppe. Lunch with a friend who opened a restaurant that I recommend: The Cale. Atmosphere around a port in the mist. The Polet is a real popular area which has not yet been polished by the trend vintage post BoBo ... it will not be long!

I considered posting one more snow image, but instead decided to go into my archives and post something very different for me. I took this while on a road trip around Vancouver Island last September. I can pretty much bet you didn't know this was mine when you first saw it :)
My attempt at the "Smile on Saturday" theme "multicolour bubble bokeh".

Memories of Copenhagen - a beautiful town I fell in love with ;))
The circular Rundetårn (Rundetaarn / Danish for round tower) is a tower in the centre of Copenhagen, which served as a observatory of the University of Copenhagen until 1861.
It has a diameter of about 15 m and a height of 34.8 m. Apart from the last few metres, it is not climbed by stairs, but by a 209 m long spiral corridor that winds around the centre of the tower in seven and a half full turns.
This equestrian staircase made it possible to deliver books, instruments and the like by horse and carriage.
And it is said that the king he went up there comfortably by carriage, too :)

Erinnerungen an Kopenhagen - eine wunderschöne Stadt zum Verlieben ;))
Der kreisrunde Rundetårn (Rundetaarn /dänisch für Runder Turm) ist ein Turm im Stadtzentrum Kopenhagens, der bis 1861 als Observatorium der Universität Kopenhagen diente. Er besitzt einen Durchmesser von etwa 15 m und eine Höhe von 34,8 m. Bestiegen wird er, abgesehen von den letzten Metern, nicht über Treppen, sondern über einen 209 m langen, spiralförmigen Gang, der sich in siebeneinhalb vollen Drehungen um die Turmmitte windet. Diese Reittreppe ermöglichte es, Bücher, Instrumente und dergleichen per Pferdewagen anzuliefern.
Und es ist überliefert, dass König Christian IV. sich hat mit der Kutsche nach oben fahren lassen (ganz bequem - bis auf die letzten Stufen ;))
The "Super Moon" will be full tomorrow night and will be closer to earth than any time since 1948. As the forecast for tomorrow is not great, here is what an almost full moon looks like tonight. It won't come this close again until 25 November 2035.
I don't think I'm ever going to better the conditions I had the first time I went up to shoot the Boxing Gloves on Kinder Northern Edges. This time it rained for 6 of the 9 miles I was out 😁 The walk wasn't without drama. I narrowly escaped being attacked by an owl when ambling along, minding my owl business on the footpath back to the car. Only some vigourous flapping of my arms persuaded it to change course 😂
P.s. some clown knocked the OIS off on my lens. Please excuse the slight lack of sharpness!
