Hats, hats, hats
I thought I’d start with local traditional hats – the tricorn of the town’s dignitaries and the simple round hat of the ordinary men.
Modern hats are sometimes less but often just as stylish. And talking of accessories – sometimes a hat is not enough, it seems.
And a hat doesn’t even have to fit, even in the case of magnolias. And the tower carries the name of his hat: Blauer Hut. Blue hat, you wonder … the challenge this week is called “hats off” and the blue slate hat came off several hundred years ago.

Put flowers
next to your bed? I’d feel like I was in hospital…

New locks in old latches

Preparing for St Martin
After falling off my bike I haven’t been out much (except for work) and my camera has mostly stayed in its bag. But I’ve been back in the saddle for a couple of days now and yesterday on my way from the dentist (only a check-up) I made a detour and I came across this meadow with about 200 geese – being fattened up for St Martin’s and Christmas … thinking about it like this is kind of depressing.

As I promised a view back on my July gallery of a month of perspective squares. And looking forward to the next month of squares.
