A quick stop on my way through through The Netherlands between Meppel and Hoogeveen, Drenthe, The Netherlands
Super long exposure at New Brighton Beach. At low tide the sand is covered in a thin film of water creating a mirror.

Nachdenkliches aus dem Gedichtzyklus "Die 13 Monate"
von Erich Kästner.
Ich liebe diesen kleinen Gedichteband,in dem Kästner die Schönheit, aber auch die melancholischen Seiten der jeweiligen Jahreszeit beschreibt.
Eines seiner romantischsten und idyllischsten Werke.
Ich wünsche Euch einen friedvollen 2. Advent.

Der Dezember
Das Jahr ward alt. Hat dünnes Haar.
Ist gar nicht sehr gesund.
Kennt seinen letzten Tag, das Jahr.
Kennt gar die letzte Stund.
Ist viel geschehn. Ward viel versäumt.
Ruht beides unterm Schnee.
Weiß liegt die Welt, wie hingeträumt.
Und Wehmut tut halt weh.
Noch wächst der Mond. Noch schmilzt er hin.
Nichts bleibt. Und nichts vergeht.
Ist alles Wahn. Hat alles Sinn.
Nützt nichts, dass man's versteht.
Und wieder stapft der Nikolaus
durch jeden Kindertraum.
Und wieder blüht in jedem Haus
der goldengrüne Baum.
Warst auch ein Kind. Hast selbst gefühlt,
wie hold Christbäume blühn.
Hast nun den Weihnachtsmann gespielt
und glaubst nicht mehr an ihn.
Bald trifft das Jahr der zwölfte Schlag.
Dann dröhnt das Erz und spricht:
"Das Jahr kennt seinen letzten Tag,
und du kennst deinen nicht."
(Erich Kästner)
Alleine schon die mittelalterlichen Gassen die man in Bambergs Altstadt überall findet, sind schon eine Reise wert.
The mere medieval streets can be found everywhere in Bamberg's Old Town, a trip are worth.

I've passed this rickety barn many times and have always marveled that the last big storm didn't blow it down. Today, I figured I'd better get a shot of it because I'm sure next time I drive by it will be a silo surrounded by a stack of kindling.
:-)
October 2020 edited to add: I drove by here a few weeks ago and a windstorm during the summer seems to have created the predicted pile of kindling surrounding the still-standing silo.
With all the development going on around here the farm buildings are fast disappearing--whether the wrecking ball comes from nature .... or human nature.

The image is taken on Nov. 1st during a hike in St. Peter (Black Forest).
It was foggy down in the city and wonderful blue skies and warm sunshine up in the mountains, the typical Inversion temperature.
WHAT a November we had this year..... Here in the Southwest of the country we had the past 2 weeks temperatures between 20 and 23 C and sunshine almost every day. I have enjoyed these golden days very much. T-shirt weather instead of warm clothes.
...Nevertheless, we have to pay the price for this unusual warmth...
The water level of the Dreisam river(which flows through my city) and the nearby Rhine river are very low. We need the rain...
Today the weather has changed but it is still mild...

Wishing you a lovely weekend, dear friends :-)

Allen FlickrFreunden ein schönes Wochenende :-)
What I liked the most of my recent trip to Sicily? The light, it was so complex, rich and so peculiar that the real challenge was to capture it all.
This is a very large and composite image made of 10 photos, from the Mount Erice, 700mt over the sea level. From here it is possible to see the whole coast till San Vito Lo Capo and the Mount Cofano. If zoomed it is possible to distinguish each single house, home, road, with insane detail. Print it on a large surface and you will get a eagle eye view of the whole plain.

Many thanks to everyone for your visit, comments and faves! Much appreciated! 😊
NO awards, group banners, sparkling icons or images please!
This is erosion at work. The rock stack on the right is called "the Razorback". The Razorback once extended much further out to sea, but the force of the waves gradually eroded and undercut the base of the stack.
Heute abend regnet hier - ist nix mit Supermond. Schön, dass ich meinen Supermond gestern schon fotografiert habe - am Haffkruger Strand - allerdings ohne Stativ :-(
One of my favorite shots of last Winter season is this shot from December taken in the evening hours at a small pond close to my town Löhne, Ostwestfalen, Germany
