I’m a Fan of Orchids
I never thought I’d have orchids, let alone so many. I’ve learned that the right place with the right light is most important to them. And so I am running out of space along their favourite window bank.
All my orchids are rescue orchids. A neighbour in our house discards them as soon as they have shed their first blooms and crams them in the communal garbage bins. I take them out, put them in nice pots and look after them. In turn they reward me with the most glorious blooms about twice a year.

A Thing of the Past
at least, hopefully, for this year.
Thought I quickly sneak in a last snow picture with this prompt. I like its fixed dimensions, behind the forest the season has already changed.

How It Will Astound You
On a clear day, rise and look around you. You will see forever, and ever, and ever more. (Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner)

Here is what it looks like from a little distance:
Friday Fun: Streaks.
It gets dark
when you drive in – at least when the old German “Gstanzl” or “Schnadahüpfel” (a fun song with many verses, often in dialect) is to be believed:
Zwische Woinem und Bergene do schteiht e Tunnell, wø mer noifährt, werd's dunkel, wø mer nausfährt, werd's hell! Holladihi-a holladiho! Holladihopsasa holladiho! The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Tunnel.
