Kalter Herrgott

This wayside shrine is called Kalter Herrgott (Cold Lord).  It is found near the village of Ritschweier in the Odenwald, Germany, on the brow of a hill where cold winds blow.

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.
