Surrounded by mirrors you can’t help but see yourself wherever you turn.

Slight Tag Change
I recently had a request for the France pics – an aquaintance bemoaned the fact that I don’t tag them with regions instead of departments. So why not both? Done.

Finally Fall
October 2011, Ahlen
I love the fall season. Spring is nice, but fall is awesome! Not because of the colours (that too, of course), but because I’m a cold weather girl.

Coloured Sky
This is a sunrise, the picture was taken at 5:57 CET – the Dearest thinks I’m crazy. I’m not, just an early bird to his late riser. The one time I managed to drag him out of bed for a sunrise, ⇒ the resulting picture was wonderful, but the complaints were more than I’m prepared to endure.

Merry Christmas
December 2010, my mother’s christmas decoration, Meerbusch
By the time this posting goes online I’m at work. In Germany we celebrate and exchange gifts on Christmas Eve, so I’ll probably be seeing patients and their loved ones, while I have to wait until Christmas Day to visit with my family.
Not to worry though, I like working the Christmas Eve late shift.
Anyway, to all of you out there a Merry Christmas, have a nice time with your families. Don’t take them for granted.

Percheron
October 2010, Guédelon
It’s name is Idole. I’m not one for horses, in fact I’m a bit afraid of them, but every since hearing “Heavy Horses” by Jethro Tull I’m fascinated with draft horses. Such a beautiful declaration of love.

Can’t be a Vampire.
It’s broad daylight. Vampires don’t do daylight. And they don’t sparkle.

My Life
“Life” is the condition which distinguishes active organisms from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, functional activity and the continual change preceding death.
from the Wikipedia article Life
I decided to start a new category – My Life.
Lately I’ve been finding myself looking back more often and thought about how nice it would be to have something documenting what I’ve done, but more specifically where I’ve done it. So this is what I’m going to do. Whenever I’m at or near a place that had some significance for me, I’m going to take a picture.
Just don’t expect to read all the sordid details.
On occasion I might even post some older pics, like this or this.

Waiting for the Storm
November 2009, Plage du Trez Hir, Plougonvelin, with the Fort de Bertheaume in the background
Yesterday was a slow day. The weatherforecast said there’d be thunderstorms around noon, so we thought it would be best not to stray too far. Last time we got caught in the rain, we had a 1 hour long drive back to the hotel in wet clothes. Nothing I’d care to repeat…
Anyway, we visited one of the local beaches and got adopted by a very friendly dog. He followed us around for the best part of an hour and was very insistent on his cuddles. He even tried to knock the camera out of my hands.
