It rained everyday that month, typical for Germany. I took the backroad to work from Rehweiler via Obermohr. And as I came around the bend my momentum was arrested as I stopped to captured Heaven's Gate #Landscape #fog #Skundy #mystic #black&white #moody #Germany #monoclassic #monotone #iconic #mist

The narrow Union victory that day provided Lincoln the political capital to announce his Emancipation Proclamation.

Photo: monochrome the head and neck of a white horse who's been hanging out in the pasture, from his right eye down into his muddy mane. He's standing next to a light ginger horse, but only a bit of her shoulder is showing. His eye is black, at least in this photo. His eye lash is white, was white always. This is Cain. He was my wife's horse, a magnificent beast who took extremely good care of her on their many excellent adventures, always always always bringing her home safely.

Cellphone Photo: A small, silky white dog, wearing oversized (for him) sunglasses that reflect the ceiling light (in the center) and the windows (at their top edge) (or maybe (?) it's the other way 'round) lays on a hardwood floor, looking expectantly at the camera (not shown), which is in a phone (not shown), held by a guy (not shown) who is supposed to be working but is also supposed to be watching the dog, who has been left in the house by his wife (not shown), who is at work (outside the home (not shown)) but but told her sister (not shown) the dog could stay with her husband (the above-mentioned guy) while her sister (still not shown) was off doing something else. Both the dog and the guy are wondering what they can get up to while they are unsupervised, so, if you could see the guy, he would probably have the same expression as the dog. But neither the dog nor the guy came up with anything good, other than making this picture. Still, all in all, a pretty good day.

Stone Stairs

#travel #photography
Photo: A wide stone stairway leads upward towards some apartments from a street that was already rising, right to left. On a second level, the stairs are flanked by stone retaining walls. The carved stones of the steps are worn by usage and weather into mottled shades, darker near the center. Sunset is approaching and two old fashioned street lamps on the right side of the stairs have lighted. On the left, near the top, an iron structure supporting cables stands. At the top of the stairs, disappearing into the street and buildings above, a man walks away from the stairs in a dark jacket and wide-brimmed hat.

Photo: Travelers emerge from The Siq, a very narrow gorge that is pretty much the only entrance to an ancient city built in the 4th Century by the Nabateans, nomadic Arabs who controlled the caravan routes of the Middle East. Per Wikipedia: "Unlike slot canyons such as Antelope Canyon in the American Southwest, which are directly shaped by water, the Siq is a natural geological fault split apart by tectonic forces; only later was it worn smooth by water."
