Here we are on tram tracks while in the distance one line 12 tram is about to leave (away from me, just to state that).

St. Johannes der Täufer (John the Baptist) is a very old church located in Taufkirchen, south of Munich.
The church building was originally Romanesque and dates back to around 1150. The church was converted to Gothic style around 1500 and later the interior was converted to the current Baroque style in 1738.
Here's a detail of the altar picture.

An over 180° panorama of the Schrannenplatz in the town of Erding. The red building on the left is the Schrannenhalle, built 1866 in gothic revival style. A Schranne in southern Germany is a storage and trading place for grains, mostly wheat, barley and rye.
In case the town name Erding rings a bell:
Yes, this is the town where the Erdinger beer comes from. 🍺

This building originally dates to 1502 (completion). It served as one of the main granaries of the town. The name Mauthalle (= customs hall) dates to the 19th century when the building served as the customs headquarters of Nuremberg (Maut = customs duties). The building is 84 m long, 20 m wide and 29 m tall.
During an allied bombing raid in the night of March 8th/9th 1943 the roof structure burned out, the building was covered with a provisional roof afterwards. During another allied bombing raid on October 3rd 1944 the walls received just slight shrapnel damage, but finally during the bombing raid on January 2nd 1945 the building was hit heavily, the eastern gable and the southern walls collapsed, the building burned out completely.
Reconstruction after WWII lasted from 1951 to 1953 in slightly simplified form.
Today it serves as an office building with shops in the ground floor, the basement houses the restaurant Mautkeller which features a microbrewery.

Two trams again - this is a similar traffic situation as in the previous upload, just a different point of view.
The background tram is coming out of the Arnulfstraße, entering the Bahnhofsplatz square; while the foreground tram comes out of Prielmayerstraße from the Stachus square, entering the Dachauer Straße.
Single exposure, no "tricks" used.

Looking north along the tracks of the abandoned S-Bahn station "München Olympiastadion". Last train was 1988... - 35 years ago...
The station was built especially for the 1972 Summer Olympics held nearby. After the Olympic Games the station was used only if football matches were held at the Olympic Stadium. In 1988 operations ceased finally, since then the station is left for decay - despite being a listed building as part of the Olympic ensemble.

A "top" location. High above the traffic noise, unobstructed view over the city... - unfortunately a bit hot under the searing sun (that may actually be the reason why it is coated with gold leaf).

Detail shot of the Jilin Watch Factory "Jixing" and the Jilin Watch Factory "Hangtian". Two vintage Chinese wrist watches from the late 1970ties.
The "Jixing" (吉星) brand name means "Lucky Star". The red 軍用 on the Jixing means "military use" (Jūnyòng) in traditional Chinese characters. These watches were issued during the China-Vietnam conflict in 1979.
The "Hangtian" (航天) brand name is also nice - it means "Spaceflight" in English - just notice the "orbit" style logo above the brand name.
Both watches feature handwound 17-jewel (17 Zuan) "standard" movements and are rather small by modern watch taste.
Here are both watches with bands attached.
And here you can see a wrist shot of the gold colored Jixing.
And before somebody asks - the thing the watches are propped up against is a watch case opener.
The photo is an archive find from years ago - but I still have both of them and they are still running strong.

Macro Mondays - Time
I had quite a few shots while coming up with the one I liked.
Time is such the bewildering thing. I love movies that play on the time theme.
Happy Macro Monday
