These boaters sure know where to spend a wonderful summer evening.

Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!
A closer view towards the altar of the late renaissance Michaelskirche in Munich.
St, Michael was built from 1583 to 1597. It was massively damaged during an allied bomb raid in 1944 and reconstructed from 1946 to 1948.

A sculpture of 15 wild horses has crowned a barren Central Washington hillside for more nearly two decades, but the rusted sheets of steel still are an inspiring sight to travelers along busy I- 90.
The 200-foot line of life-size charging horses, the creation of David Govedare of Chewelah, Wash., captures a mystical spirit from a time when real wild horses roamed the steppes.
Titled "Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies," the scene symbolically re-creates the Great Spirit turning loose a herd of wild horses above the Columbia River's Wanapum Lake.
While I've got lots of celand photos to post, I thought it would be good to post a church in Easter Sunday. Iceland has lots of these little churches, almost every settleent has one.The weather was terrible on the day I took this (I now understand what fuels all the waterfalls!) hence the choice of the long exposure.
"Münchner Freiheit" is a quite busy bus and tram station with a futuristic roof structure, located in Schwabing.
And, even if the structure looks like "plastic fantastic", it is actually a steel construction, total weight 400 metric tons.

Of all the shots I took this particular evening, this photo is the one most in focus. The red color is accurate, too; I didn't "add" it in. ;)
From a geological standpoint, Iceland is a very young country, still in the midst of its own creation.
This is an Aluminum statue of Maximilian Graf von (Count) Montgelas located on the Promenadeplatz square in Munich.
The 6 m tall statue was made in 2005 by Karin Sander. She digitized pictures of the count, then calculated the shape. Finally the statue was CNC machined from Aluminum, the weight is about 9 metric tons.

At the northern end of the Kornstraße is the Einlasstor (roughly "admittance gate") city gate. The gate got its name from being the only town gate where late arrivals could enter the town in medieval times - but only for a special fee.
The gate with its 19 m tall tower was first mentioned in 1469.

Qu'est-ce qui fait le Charme d'Anglet? Son littoral, unique au Pays basque, avec ses 4,5 km de plages de sable fin.La promenade du littoral angloy longe les 11 plages, pour certaines de renommée internationale.
Mais aussi la belle pinède pour le plus grand bonheur des marcheurs.
La Plage des Cavaliers accueille chaque année d'importantes compétitions internationales du surf. Les vagues de 'shore break' peuvent etre très dangereuses.

Anglet forms part of the Biarritz-Bayonne-Anglet 'conurbation', on the Atlantic Coast in south-west France and running along the Adour River to the north.
The coast and beaches are the principal attraction here, and the beach at Anglet is pretty much the southern end of the very long (200km) stretch of beaches that run in a more or less continuous row from Arcachon to Biarritz.
As with most of the beaches along this part of Atlantic, the five kilometres of beaches in Anglet are typically long and sandy. Behind the beaches the landscape is mostly of open grassy areas and small forested areas, and there is a promenade popular with walkers, cyclists and joggers behind a large part of the beach.
To me, it was a wonderful experience to walk the 4,5 km trail close to the Ocean along Anglet's 11 beaches during high tide...
Anglet is a synonym for surfing. You will find some of France's best surf spots.

The foothills of the mountains in the Southern Lakes are covered in trees. The acid soils and humid conditions encourage ferns and moss, sessile oaks and the most wonderful beech trees, many of which are copper beech. Holly, rowan and hazel grow here too - the perfect environment for wildlife. Bird song everywhere - just magic. Red squirrels also abide here, unseen (by me, quiet as I was), as they are small and quick.
We even had a pair of nuthatches visit our bird feeder. They became used to me, coming out for the special food I put out for them. They were raising families of course, and so their food was rich in protein. Not cheap, but worth it !
Taken from the top of our 'holiday retreat' path one morning. The light was so lovely.
Thank you as always for your kind comments, faves and invites - hope you feel inspired to visit this wonderful place.

A prosperous establishment of the early 1870's, with an elegant Mansard roof, small tower and iron grillwork. Sign of the growth associated with the construction of the Third Welland Canal (1871-1882). Its neighbour, 325 St. Paul St., is a well maintained example of the same period

Eines meiner älteren Fotos. Das ist meine Nichte Corinna auf dem Bogener Berg im Landkreis Straubing. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war sie gerade mal fünf Jahre alt. Mittlerweile ist sie vierzehn und es fehlt nur noch ein Centimeter und sie ist so gross wie ich. Wie die Zeit vergeht. :-)
One of my older photos. This is my niece Corinna on the Bogener Berg district of Straubing. At this time, she was just five years old. She is now fourteen and it is pending only a centimeter and she is as big as me. How the time flies. :-)
