On reflection

34 reflection

On reflections (and a searching and whetting) this is my only photo that combines reflection and holidays.

May there be friends and peace for you in the coming days, and may you find time to reflect but also look forward with hope.

More seasonal reflections can be found at Nancy’s A Photo A Week.

Brick said: I like an arch

The Abbey of Lorsch is a UNESCO world heritage site, close to Worms in the Rhine Valley, about 60km south of Frankfurt. It was an important monasteries during the Carolingian times.  Through one of the arches of the “kingdom hall” one can look upon the monastery’s church.

Three arches, facing north and south, lead into the main room.

There are innumerable ways to play with these arches and their vistas. This time I preferred to try out desaturation.

More Arches, Domes, Half Circles can be found on Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge.

Try your luck!

Lotto

For once, I found a mural with a signature – Christian Schopp (but no additional information on the artist, except for his mobile phone no. in the corner ).  This is on the side of a newspaper kiosk in Bad Homburg, where magazines, tobacco, and lottery tickets are sold.

This is for Monday Murals where you can find more murals and graffiti.
