With this view at an enchanted City Center,

I wish you all a

Happy

New

Year

Pairs

While shooting my winter impressions I came across some lovely pairs...

...ok, they were not ALL lovely - but pairs indeed ;-)))

Teaser

I have spent the festive days at the Luxembourgish Moselle...
... and my present this year has been....
... some of the most incredible weather conditions...

...which made it possible to get some beautiful pictures...

... and I invite you to have a look at all of them...

...here

Thank you, Woody

No, I didn't take a picture of you

the whole world knows how you looke like

I will keep this evening in my memory

as a very special moment

I will never be able to tell you

how grateful I am that you came by

to play your music

The Festivities

Everything is ready ..
..the guests..
..can come..
.. and a little angel (*) (the one who is concentrating and not playing the clown ;-) is wishing you very special and joyful days to come.



(*)Kenavo and sister.. 35 years ago ;-))

A few days before Christmas....

... Stars are being tied to prevent them from wandering...
... Angels are nicely asked to take care for the table music...

... trees are wearing their most glamorous furs...

... and even lions can't sleep tight no longer ;-)

Concerning the last picture of this sequence -

'Banque de Luxembourg' has asked

the swiss artist Gerry Hofstetter

to give a special aspect to their building;

from 08/12/07 until 05/01/08

I will definetely pass there more often

Count-down

Get ready...
..for the festivities...

..and start asking for..

.. some snow ;-)

Grey is not my color

After a week of grey, grey, grey in the sky, I have been looking for it through town, where it means ..

forbiddance..
..dowdiness..

..no comment ;-))..
..uniformity..

..but when it comes to flying elephants - I just LOVE grey!!!

A new venue

As Laura does not work any longer at 'Café In', we choose a new place to meet on Saturday
And we are feeling already at home

and cozy

.. sadly the time flies quicker when you feel at ease!

November Recreations

All Saints' and All Souls' Day are Bank Holidays in our company. So I had the opportunity to take a trip to the Belgian Coast. Neither the weather nor I were very inspired, but nevertheless I took too many pictures to put them into my blog, so please have a look at them here

Autumn Day

Autumn has already been a topic here but I love this season so much - it must have another entry - today combined with some of my favorite haikus
autumn chill
the earth's shadow
moves up the chimney
Martin Gottlieb Cohen
from tinywords

Oh scarlet autumn!
that profound punctuation
to shamrock summer
Carol Nation

a breeze blows
leaves of all different colors
flutter to the ground
Rebekah Slodounik

See ... the heavy leaf
on the silent windless day
...falls of its own will
BONCHO

All is well that ends well

Monday mornings should start more often like this ;-))))))))))
