Sidewalks (dates and names)

El carrer Cavallers es correspon amb l'antic camí ral de Madrid a Barcelona.
Els cavallers i gent benestant de l’època, van anar edificant cases, per això avui es coneix amb el nom de carrer dels Cavallers.
Un passeig per aquest carrer és com fer un recorregut per l'arquitectura des del segle XVII endavant. Podem veure finestrals gòtics i renaixentistes, portals adovellats o façanes vuitcentistes ricament ornamentades.
On our small photo walk, we passed this underground car park entrance. I really liked the light and atmosphere in it.
Hope you like it, too :)
In the streets of Munich.
The two singing accordionists made me smile immediately when I was passing by: their music sounded so happy and they had an impressive presence. The lady in front of me must have felt in a similar way!
I kinda liked the photo as it radiates the vibe of this unique moment :)
Munich City Center
when I walked back to the hotel after enjoying my dinner, I spotted this beautifully tiled sidewalk, cleaned up for the night.
There are only a few of such beautiful in the streets of the heritage district George Town. This one id to complete my sidewalk series from Penang.

It is hot and dry, so stopping to enjoy the small busts of life along the sidewalk 😉 Happy Crazy Tuesday!!!!!
It is a public holiday for the Chinese New Year, in Penang, Malaysia. The shops are closed and there is nobody and nothing out at the sidewalk.

Sidewalk threw an ecological park abandoned for the year due to flooding. Heavy rains this year left many of the lakes and reservoirs in Kansas swollen. The recreational activities they are known for and the dollars they bring to local communities have been severely limited. As the water recedes I explore.

"Spiegel der Geschichte"
An der Stelle des ehemaligen Wohnhauses der beiden jüdischen Familien Levi und auf einer Achse der Erinnerung zur jüdischen Gedenkstätte in der Zeyherstraße entstand im Januar 2013 die von dem Künstler Matthias Braun aus Würzburg geschaffene Gedenkstätte "Spiegel der Geschichte". Vier lebensgroße Menschensilhouetten aus spiegegelpoliertem Edelstahl stellen eine Familie und eine Einzelperson in der typischen Kleidung der 1940er Jahre dar. Sie sind durch Flucht, Vertreibung und Verfolgung in Bewegung. Auf den Figuren spiegelt sich der Ort wider, an dem damals Unrecht geschehen ist. Zugleich erkennt der Betrachter darin sein eigenes Spiegelbild und wird in das Geschehen zur Zeit des Nationalsozialismus hineingezogen. Vergangenheit und Gegenwart werden so miteinander verknüpft und der Bertrachter versteht, dass jeder jederzeit zum Opfer werden kann.
Eine Gedenktafel mit Namen ergänzt die Gedenkstätte und nennt die derzeit bekannten Todesopfer, darunter Personen, die wegen ihres Judenseins, wegen ihrer Behinderung, ihrer politischen oder regimekritischen Einstellung, als Zwangsarbeiter, als soziale Außenseiter, wegen ihrer sexuellen Ausrichtung oder aufgrund menschlicher Willkür verfolgt wurden und zu Tode gekommen sind.
Walking along the sidewalk in Leucadia, CA...I had to duck under the curtain of flowers to get through to the other side. I have no idea what kind of tree it is...anyone?
Blood is thicker than 'water'
This scene seems to endorse how waterproof some families truly can be.
:)
Heavy rains didn't seem to dampen the spirits of this cell phone photographer as he crouched down to capture a photo of his family posed in front of a popular Vancouver landmark.
Gastown is the historic core of Vancouver, and is the city's earliest, most historic area of commercial buildings and warehouses.
World's first steam powered clock
Raymond Saunders' first steam clock was built in 1977 to solve the issue of a steam vent in a popular sidewalk for the renovated Gastown district of Vancouver. Owned by the City of Vancouver, BC Canada
I kind of liked the quite strict composition of the lines in this one. And there is a little detail I recognized after taking the shot: I got busted! The man passing by watched me closely in the reflection of the window pane. Hi there! :)
In a prior version of the image (in post production), I also created a version with a corrected perspective in order to get an even cleaner look. But then I decided to go for the more summery, analogue and grainy look, where - in my taste - the slight lens distortion fits in quite nicely.
I hope, you like it, too!
Stay home, stay safe, stay healthy!
In the east of Munich.
