Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge asked for signs of any kind. I decided on fiery signs – fire insurance signs and fire museum signs.

Looking up – looking down
I was looking down, he was looking up. We met.
For A Photo a Week: from above.

It’s better to be a big fish on a big house
I couldn’t match the shiny vintage car of Cee nor the beautiful and stark maritime mural but I found a mural with fish, actually a four storey house with fish.
This was Cee’s given photograph for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge:

Put trash in its place!
The island of Krk. In front of Croatia in the Adriatic Sea. In front of garbage containers. But even that is picturesque. And what time to have a photo of Croatia who later today will play France for the football (soccer) world championship in their first world cup final ever [edit: they didn’t win, but they were in the final!]
An equally incongruous place for a garbage container, in the old southern cemetery in Munich.
Not an odd location but an odd inscription: the town’s finest.
Just to round off this rubbish collection, here is Oscar the Grouch who lives in a garbage can on Sesame Street.

Little dwarf sh**ing
A fairly large – as dwarves go – dwarf sitting in the woods and … yes, he is doing exactly what you think he is doing. Just look at his contented smile!
For One Word Sunday: dwarf.
Other small or smallish, Lilliputian, minute, diminuitive, petite, undersized, itty-bitty photos are only a tiny click away.
A quintessential lazy summer’s day
For A Photo a Week: quintessential. If you want to see more pictures that are typical for something or someone or somewhere, click here.
Beyond close up
One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
– Henry Miller
Debbie at Travel with intent gives the quote and an image, and if inspiration strikes there will be more photos here.
Variation of a theme
It’s not one of my better pictures but it has the yellow bricks, the red, the bush, the window. Just not necessarily in that order.
This is for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge and was inspired by this photo:

Elwetritsche
This fun fountain in Neustadt an der Weinstraße in Germany sports a large variety of Elwetritsche – mythical creatures, supposedly bred from ducks, geese, chicken and woodland imps and gnomes. The artist responsible is Gernot Rumpf. More about Elwetritsche can be found on wikipedia. I’ve posted pictures of their young ones before.
