Casting a Long Shadow
The tv tower in Mannheim casts its long shadow over the two arms of the river Neckar. I’ve been where the shadow crosses the Neckar island on a bike tour with my sister.
Just in Time for Halloween
Last on the SD card in my camera: From an outing with our grandson the day before yesterday, it’s the tv tower in Mannheim.
Last on the SD card in my cell phone: A new lodger in our garage, a nosferatu spider. The species name is actually Zoropsis spinimana, the common name is derived from the marking on its back. It is new to Germany, having moved from warmer areas (due to climate change, no doubt). So for the first time there is a spider in Germany that can actually hurt human beings – they will bite if they are threatened. The bite is comparable to a mosquito bite or small bee sting (yes, Australians may laugh at this point). This particular one is a female, as my more knowledgeable friends tell me, and its body is just under 2 cm long.

It’s Like Opening a Window of Worms
I’m not quite sure whether these ventilation hoses have been installed due to COVID air conditioning improvements. In any case, they look funny.

A small puddle in the right place. In this case, in Mannheim in front of the water tower in the city centre.
Child Labour
These boys on the front of a house in Mannheim all represent professions.
Water Play and Drying off
Last on the SD card in the camera: A fountain in the city of Mannheim.
Last on the SD card in the phone. – I was taking photos of old pictures in photo albums. I did crop this because I sent it to my son whom I wanted to tease and only kept the cropped version.
