The Rococo interior of the Freising Cathedral - some change history below:

 

The cathedral of Freising was built in Romanesque style from 1159 to 1205. First change to the interior was the replacement of the flat Romanesque wooden ceiling by a Gothic vault ceiling during 1481 to 1483. In a further change during the Baroque period the Gothic vault ribs were removed, the final change was the Rococo decoration created around 1724 by the brothers Cosmas Damian Asam and Egid Quirin Asam.

Sunset at the Regattastrecke. Short telephoto version, last upload of this sunset.

 

This means - go out and catch another😁!

 

The Regattastrecke Oberschleißheim (Oberschleißheim Regatta Course) is an artificial lake that was build for the 1972 Olympic Games as the rowing and canoe sprint venue.

 

The lake is 2,230 metres long and 140 metres wide. Since 2018 it is under Denkmalschutz (scheduled monument, historic landmark).

 

It is still used as training facility for local rowing clubs and for related sports events, e.g the World Rowing Cup 1997 and the 2007 World Rowing Championships.

I don't often use a DX lens with my full-frame camera but I wanted the reach that my Nikon 200mm DX gave me to get this tree, situated well into Loch Eck, nicely framed..

.

I've kayaked out to this tree a few times and got out ... standing in the middle of the loch is a weird experience :)

Taken a few weeks back when the heather was still around on the moors.

 

Hope everyone enjoys a lovely weekend.

As seen from the Holmenkollen, Frognerseteren in Oslo

Still shocked about the Nice horror...

 

Freedom someday

 

Somehow life goes on

but when it's said and done

it's such a bitter pill

when you think the battle's won

you hear the distant guns

of all those fighting still

the battle's in our heads

one we alway lose

whichever side we choose

we can paint the planet red

or black and blue instead

but we are one world.

No, this is not the actual name of this recumbent bronze statue.

 

The four recumbent statues on the Wittelsbacherbrunnen in the Brunnenhof of the Residenz palace in the city center shall symbolize the four main Bavarian rivers: Donau, Isar, Inn and Lech.

Due to weathing of the fountain base it is unfortunately not quite clear which of these figures represents which river exactly.

 

BTW: Munich has 2 fountains named Wittelsbacherbrunnen, the other is located on the Lenbachplatz square.

Exploring the sand dunes along the shores of Lake Michigan in Michigan City, Indiana. The sunset was a bust, but a day at the beach still beats a day pretty much anywhere else.
