Natural cut-out. Doesn’t it look like an African sunset? Possibly the travel restrictions have addled my brain.

This is the old bridge in Heidelberg leading over the river Neckar last week. Not completely deserted as the lock down in Germany has been lifted to some degree, was never as strict as in many other countries.

This is what it looks like in normal times, bustling with people at any given time.

Sailing in the late afternoon on the waters of the mouth of the river Wear.

The water glistening, the coast hazy in the background.
And now for something completely (?) different:

Sailing on the river Neckar where it is a mere 120 metres wide, with river cruise ships making the waterway even narrower, this guy showed some real acrobatics.

This copper beech stood for 200 years in the abbey garden of Kloster Neuburg near Heidelberg. When it died, its wood was made into this sculpture.
For Six Word Saturday. More six word musings can be found there.
Our local tram connects the cities Mannheim and Heidelberg and our town (definitely not a city) in an almost perfect triangle. It’s been going since before the first world war.

Stand up paddling on the river Neckar in Heidelberg.

Looking west – where the hills of the Odenwald give way to the Upper Rhine Valley.

Looking east to the step in the river, next to the lock for ships.
