The church honors the local soldiers fallen in WW II (no comment). What struck me was this:
“Please don’t sprinkle the statue with Holy Water. Thank you.”

I have never seen anything like this before: an automate for grave candles and matches. Yes, we live in a “no smoking” society today, and nobody carries a lighter anymore. There’s also a hole to dispose of burnt-out candles.

A wide-angle shot. The mountains seem to be farther away than they actually are.
Photography is all about choices: you can’t have everything ... which makes me sad and angry, but not suicidal –to conclude in a lighter vein! ;-)

Cropped, otherwise no processing at all. You need not believe this, ’cause I wouldn’t.

Isar Valley and Alps

The same scenery as always, but I like the detail in this picture (best viewed large).

The same scenery as always, but I like the lack of detail in this picture (best viewed as a thumbnail).

Munich - Zerwirkgewölbe
|
|
|
Only today, I saw that the New York Times has an article on Munich online, which might interest prospective visitors of Bavaria’s capital. Surprisingly, at least to me, is that it starts out with the Zerwirkgewölbe.
The article also links to a review of the restaurant that, some years ago, replaced the original shop: “This all-vegan, part raw-food establishment sits in a house more than 700 years old where wild game used to be skinned and butchered, just around the corner from the world-famous beer palace the Hofbräuhaus, in the heart of Munich.”
Indeed, life isn’t without irony...

Engaged in conversation and venting her unqualified opinions, thus giving the Quiet One (me) the opportunity of focusing and pressing the button.

After our stroll along the beach (and after a hot chocolate and apple pie). We feel much better now, but are also very much aware of a camera pointed at us...

Last Friday, the day before our return to Germany. It was cold, wet, and windy. I wonder why so few people wanted to join us on our walk along the seaside.
Here you can see only half of the sand; the rest came out of our shoes back home.
These boots are made for walkin’ and...

...they’re gonna walk all over you.
Perhaps there’s some fancy Eastern philosophy behind all this, but I can only relate it to a major work of the American philosopher Lee Hazlewood.
