I took a very long walk this morning and I only got lost twice, not bad! So in the early afternoon when I returned to the hotel for a potty break, I asked for a local map at the front desk. Duh! Anyhow, I had made this image about mid morning, before stopping for a cup of... Continue Reading →

The Marburg city portage (walk-way into the old City), a photograph which was taken a couple of hours prior to my run into with the Marburg castle ghosts.

It was a dark and foggy night….
It was foggy on our drive through the German countryside today, which made for some wonderful Fall colors. After a dinner with the project team it seemed like the fog was coming back in again.

Blue sky again
It was really nice to have a blue sky and some white clouds. We still have fires burning, but with the change in weather, the smoke is risking and allowing the sky to show. That does help to lift my spirits. I just checked in my luggage for Frankfurt and had to stuff my tripod... Continue Reading →
Photographic Content
Photographic (Artistic) 'Content' is probably an easier concept to understand and accept. The basic definition of 'content' is that its information.
