There I was.
Looking down. Making sure I keep my feet on the ground.
Looking up. My head not quite in the clouds. Seeing the storks fly by.
Looking straight ahead. On either side, in the corner of my eyes is a sculpture.
Here they are.
Taking a few steps forward to stand between the two. Lucky me, they weren’t sphinxes.
And from a little way off, Diana is watching.

I grew up behind the wall (outside of the castle gardens) and they still had peacocks and a couple of crowned cranes running free then. The piercing cries of peacocks sound strangely familiar and cozy to me.

Half a circle peeping over a roof – the full circle sports a star. But it is not a car roof.
A roof peeping through an arch or through a half circle.
Through lots of arches in the castle gardens of Schloss Neckarhausen.

These are a few of the paths of the castle grounds in Schwetzingen, Germany. The gardens are famous for incorporating various styles from various epoches. These cone shaped boxwood bushes are part of the earliest, formal style. In winter they stand out more because they are evergreen next to the bare-branched trees and bushes.
For Cee’s Which Way Photo Challenge. More paths, streets, and any kind of ways can be found here.
These photos are all from the castle gardens of Schwetzingen, Germany. Taken on a pre-spring afternoon.
