A wood kobold watching over the path and checking who is coming into his domain.
I should have put a scale next to these acorns – they were carved out of wood and as big as a foot stool.
More kobolds carved from living trees.
And a penguin in the making.

Lazy anglers resting in a boat.
Lazy Gruffelo resting on a shoulder.
Lazy flo… Naw, impossible. Flowers can’t be lazy. Just a dandelion then, from the side.

The sign of a fire insurance on a house in Brandenburg. It was founded 1718.
I saw this sign in Frankfurt. I thought it was a foreign alphabet but couldn’t find a match. Then I got up I looked at the picture skew and realised it’s a word: T U M U L T (the same word exists in German), probably the name of a bar.
I think this alludes to a German saying: The place to which even a king has to go to on foot.

I must have misunderstood. K’lee and Dale asked for monochrome and I thought of monohorn. Ah well … here’s a bison horn.

I took new photos of something old. Michelstadt is a quaint little town in the Odenwald, the lower mountain range to the east of the Upper Rhine Valley. The old houses, particularly the half timbered ones, are so well suited to monochrome photography because of their contrasting structures. These photos are of the town wall encircling the inner part of the town. I chose a filter, inexplicably called “bandicoot” in my editing program, which is not as stark as black and white, yet not as mellow as sepia.
This is for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Anything new.
