I rarely go out on a recreational ride without my camera (I also use my bicycle for commuting and going to the shops, that doesn’t count here, though). I manage around 2000km per year and the last time I took a photo of my odometer was a “Schnapszahl”, five ones. While I am at it I also take photos of my trusted steed, Wynona Rider, but she looks better if I crouch down a bit with gras in the foreground.

She also looks good from above.

This tower in the distance has been my destination a few times since it was built about five years ago. I could take the car but it is in range of Wynona and me.

Once there I had to leave her to climb up.

And this is one of the views 192 steps or 577+34 metres up.

And now for something completely different. To get photos of wild beasts in the bush or gardening experts checking on the local plants – you have to go down, creeking knees and all.

Two shots of Ned Flanders from the Simpsons that show the difference between bending down and going really low.
