Hollycross Mountains

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Today was a beautiful, mild winter day. First signs of spring were visible as you can see: this snowdrop was one of many in a forest near our house. The illuminated bokeh in the background is from a birch tree with still most of its (brown) leaves hanging at it. So, this picture is taken in winter (februari), first blossom as a sign of spring and in the background still some old leaves giving a beautiful golden bokeh representing autumn. (Taken in Herzogenrath Worm-Wildnis - Germany)

Ahem.

This is one of the photos I took for the theme 'Fill the frame' of the 'This may not be Old San Juan but ...' group. I originally chose another photo for the theme as the my sheep don't fill the frame completely but now I have decided to post this one too. The sheep are too cute to be ignored. :)

Beautiful evening light and goldeneye females enjoy peace and quiet. And only one photographer with the quiet camera, so it is not too bad 😄

Deutlich sieht man den blauen Dunst des Eukalyptuswaldes. Der feine blaue Nebel stammt von dem ätherischen Eukalyptusöl das die Blätter der Bäume verdunsten. Teile der Blue Mountains sind UNESCO Weltnaturerbe.

On 9 May 2019, three years ago, Timmy moved in with me. In short, these three years together can be described as follows: they were never boring :-))).

This is the anniversary treat on the 60-year-old family birthday plate: smoked Stremel salmon.

Timmy was estimated to be 4-5 years old in 2019 by the vet at the shelter, my vet was more for 5-6 years. So he should be about eight years old now - a lad in his prime. As the vet said the other day, "He's all bone and muscle!". Well, fur and a bit of brain is there too, I add ;-)

But despite all the excitement with him, this quote is true:

Where man and cat live together,

a house becomes a cosy home.

Nina Sandmann

I wish us many more healthy years together.

I have taken this photo on June 10, 2023.

This is of a church in Munich. If you look at the church from the front the big dome is in between the smaller two.
