Lights – weekly pictures

Especially the time right before Christmas is enlightened by many little lights and sparkling decoration to bring the Christmas spirit. Walking around the city becomes really interesting, mostly when it has gotten dark outside, as all the lights have been switched on, turning the rather colourless streets into colourful adventures. It’s almost like a liveContinue reading “Lights – weekly pictures”

November – weekly pictures

As it is almost the end of November, the Christmas time is just around the corner. Even though it is still autumn the weather is getting moodier and colder, perfect to get into the winterly Christmas vibes.

Halloween origins from the Celtic holiday Samhain which over centuries turned from a pagan ritual to a week of costumed parties, trick-or-treating and jack-o-lanterns.

The Jurassic Coast reaches from Exmouth (East Devon) to Studland Bay (Dorset) which is a distance of about 154km.

Waves – weekly pictures

New week, new pictures 🙂 I always loved the sea and the water. It is fascinating how it can be really smooth, calm and shining some times and then very rough, wild and strong at another time. Especially, the splashing waves get my attention easily and I could spend hours watching them building up, almostContinue reading “Waves – weekly pictures”

Reflections – weekly pictures

Unfortunately, the weekly pictures tuned into a ‘once in a while’ thing but I’ll hopefully be able to post them more frequently soon! Nevertheless, since there was supposed to be a blood moon yesterday evening, I thought I’d try and get a glimpse of it, as well as hopefully a nice picture. However, since itContinue reading “Reflections – weekly pictures”
