You might have heard that Germany is in the grip of a drought and fields are brown and yellow. Water needs to be moved to them, or in this case shot with travelling sprinklers.
More moving water can be found can be found at Jude’s Black and White Sunday.




For Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: benches.
Benches Cee wanted, benches Cee got. And some birds thrown in for good measure.

The theme for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week is birds. I’ve decided to go with selective colour although in the last picture of the Canada goose it was difficult to find any colour in the animal itself.
Here are more monochrome photos of birds.






Cee is asking for monochrome animals this week. For more animals click on Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge

For Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: words that end in ‘ock’. More “ock-y” photos can be found here.

Pseudo antique, old-fashioned elegance.
A lonely, lovely bench in the woods.

Not lonely, not really lovely.

If you want to take a seat with others – here they are.

Objects or People older than 50 years for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge.
The featured people are older than 50 but their clothes – traditional German costumes from the south-western part – often are too, truly so or re-created. Obviously, I have a penchant for hats. The men all wear the traditional form called tricorne or cocked hat which was worn by older, more well-to-do burghers.
