Spring at its best!

Picnic under a Japanese cherry in full bloom.

It’s a… dog’s life

399 euros???!!!!

Modern art

Hmm… a model of DNA, perhaps?

Frozen!

It is cold out there!! The surface of the water in the canal running along Königsallee is frozen because of the continuous low temperatures. Almost every lake and canal in the area is frozen!

Here comes the sun…

This is really the sun! As we woke up today morning, everything was white again! And the sun was just playing behind the clouds…

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
FROHES NEUES JAHR!!!

Let it snow…

Let’s make a snowman!!

It seems that we’ll have a white Christmas!

Nostalgia

Am Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas fair): Roasted chestnuts remind me of my childhood and a feeling of nostalgia comes upon me.

20 years after…

N9It’s been 20 years since the Fall of the Berlin Wall… Today’s photo is dedicated to this event. It is a photo I took last year from the rest of the Berlin Wall in Mühlenstraße near Ostbahnhof, where the East Side Gallery stands.

N8“… Sonne, Mond und Sterne, brenne auf mein Licht, brenne auf mein Licht, aber nur meine liebe Laterne nicht”

On St. Martin’s Day (11th November) children go through the streets with paper lanterns and candles, and sing songs about St. Martin. This photo was taken today in a school, where lanterns, that children have made for this day, were exhibited.

N7Königsallee by night.  The stores are closed but the lights are still on, playing beautifully with water.

Auf der Kö…

So, prepare your wallet and… go shopping!!

Endless struggle

Heinrich-Heine-Allee: one of the major underground (U-Bahn) stations in Düsseldorf

Heinrich Heine was born in Düsseldorf and was one of the most significant German poets and journalists in the 19th century. He is best known for his lyric poetry, while many of Heine’s works had been set to music by Robert Schumann.

O5…while I was driving today afternoon in Oberkassel. To be honest, I couldn’t easily decide  where to focus… on the Television Tower or on the raindrops on my car’s window. They were so beautiful!

Friend or enemy?
