No Colour Needed
Winter roads and paths are almost naturally monochrome – whether in sunshine in the open or on a cloudy day in the forest Not a winter photo but of somebody who at least from the back is strikingly monochrome (except for the socks). Cee’s Which … Continue reading No Colour Needed
The Best Comes Before the End
Autumn arrives with rich yellow tones overlaying the greens of summer.
Soon reds and browns join the composition.
As time goes on, it gets darker
Until the weather decides: “No more Mr Nice Autumn!”

Coming and Going, and then Some
In the village with little traffic the children really can use the road to race.
In France the pace is slower but the baguettes need to be carried home.
And how could I not end this post with a photo from eight years ago. Springbok fans in Newcastle when the Rugby World Cup was hosted by England, Scotland, and Wales. Today, Springbok and other rugby fans can be seen in the streets of France, I’m sure.

I Want to Ride My Bicycle Where I Like
Lots of signs for cycle tracks around here. Some plain, just showing: this is for bicycles.
Some show directions and destinations.
There are also multi-purpose signs:
One direction to Mannheim, one to Heidelberg, one to Schwetzingen. And the scenic routes are:
Pan-European cycle track, the Rhine Valley cycle track, the asparagus route , the Kurpfalz route and the Leimbach route. Take your pick.

The Four Bridges of Heidelberg
Over a stretch of 3.5 km there are four bridges in Heidelberg. In this photo I managed to catch all four of them. The one in the foreground, barely recognisable as a bridge, is the footpath on top of the waterlock.
The next one is the Old Bridge just underneath the Heidelberg Castle. Although many years ago it was open to cars but now it is exclusively open to pedestrians, mainly tourists.
The third one, named after the first president of the Federal Republic of Germany, Theodor Heuss, is also a two lane road with a wide pedestrian lane and an extra bicycle track. Where it crosses the river Neckar the old part of Heidelberg (and the long pedestrian-only stretch ends.
The last one, the Ernst-Walz-Brücke named after the Mayor of Heidelberg in the first part of the 20th century, is a four lane road, not particularly pretty but utilitarian and very important for Heidelberg’s traffic flow. The bridge pylons can just bee seen in the last photo.

The Road Goes Ever Up and Up
(with apologies to J.R.R. Tolkien)
Going up is exhausting. Going down is painful (for my knees). But it was placed in my way.
