The wave is waiting –
– all day, every day.
In Munich, there is a “standing wave” in the Eisbach (literally: ice brook) just before this branch of the river Isar is routed underground and later joins the main river again. If the weather permits it, one can settle down at the banks and watch other people getting wet – while performing heroic deeds.

Lines and Angles
Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge asked for “lines and angles”.
I adore half-timbered houses.
Win-win – don’t you think?
All these were taken in the South and Southwest of Germany.
On the prepared track
It’s not really away from the “hustle and bustle of OTHERS” but it is my favourite getaway. And because my hands are holding poles I don’t carry a big camera so the few pics are not great. But you get the idea.

A room with a view
And what a view that is! Tomorrow it will be exactly two years that I first visited my friend in her apartment. It looks out on the lighthouse of Roker Beach in Sunderland. The middle frame would make a perfect picture.
Other windows can be found here.
Fun with flowers (not flags)
Was it “fun AND flowers” or “fun OR flowers”? This little guy was busy working the flower but it looked like fun.
BTW: These are two different shots though I cannot tell by comparing them.
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Letter F – Topic is Fun or Flowers
Creature feature
I saw these on a short visit to Düsseldorf, Germany. Unfortunately, I had no time to explore further – but they look like part of a series.

Kangaroo style
for: One Word Photo Challenge. This week the word is “kangaroo“.

The turtle doesn’t move
I saw this yellow-bellied slider (a land and water turtle) and three of his closest friends sunbathing this weekend. One of the other turtle’s back is in the foreground and the odd angle of the stretched out neck (no doubt to catch some more sun before winter comes) makes the image almost abstract – one wonders which way the head faces. I prefer the monochrome because it enhances the geometry of the waves in the background, and the head seems even weirder.
Apologies to Terry Pratchett for misquoting him: THE turtle does move. Just this one didn’t.
