I didn’t realise before I went looking that I had so many ferris wheel photos.

Two Houses, How Many Window Styles?
Both these houses are from Michelstadt im Odenwald. I was fascinated by the different kind of windows, all coming together to one style, sort of.
The contrast between the sandstone and the white front, the windows with the rounded top on the ground floor, mirrored in the second floor balcony door cum window. The grey and white half-timbered style on the top floor with the small oblang windows. The combination of both styles in the little tower cum bay windows.
And here is another house with typical architectural details of the area. The creme coloured shingles set off by the simple oblong windows, set off by grey and brown frames. The sandstone set-ins with grilles leading to the basement. The angular bay window jutting out and decorated with half-timbered details in dark wood.

Let’s Get Ahead
Monday Portrait
Portrait of a Culprit
Although a portrait I am posting this as a macro.
Grass. My nemesis.
Macro Monday
No One Had any Intention of Building a Wall.
And yet, they did. In the middle of a meadow. It’s just a wall. About 10 metres long, 2.5 metres high. No other structure around. So I guess it’s fair game for sprayers. And the taggers who just spray without artistic intention at least appreciated the panda and his dream of bamboo and let it be.
Flying in the Sky
I’ve now posted a number of photos from the Bienenmarkt in Michelstadt, the yearly fun fair. The swing carousel offered many opportunities for catching the sky. Noteworthy that they decorated the chains with Ukrainian flags all round and they were flying high in the breeze.
Weekend Sky
A Seasonal Selfie
I have friends who are accomplished selfie takers but I’ve never been happy with my own results.
This is one of the few selfies I ever took. I was quite glad to find left-over cloth masks from the beginning of the pandemic to protect me from grass pollen in our garden to protect my mouth and nose. For good measure I grabbed our grandson’s swimming goggles. At least, I can’t blame my lack of selfie skills for my looks!
