Scene captured in Trier, Germany's oldest city , which was founded on or before 16 BC... hard to believe, isn't it? See the prior post for more info, if you are so inclined.
Not a great shot because it's against the light but I liked the buildings... that's why I took this picture. Now that I am back home and going through the shots I took during this trip, I found the red touch concentrated on the left side of the picture : the blonde lady is holding a bouquet of yellow flowers wrapped in red as well as another unidentified bunch of tall greeneries, also wrapped in red. She is not smoking, she is wondering what she still needs from the market before she goes home. Are the flowers for her mom, her friend, herself??
you have an excellent eye!:P a blonde in red bouquet!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely have to go back there ! I don't remember very much I think I was 12 or something like that ! (in short, yesterday)
ReplyDeleteThat place is very interesting but you could have taken a closeup of that woman. I like this pic !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture. You have great eyes with the woman and the flowers :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful architecture. Love how each facade is different. Thanks for pointing out the woman's pose: I really like how she ponders her purchases.
ReplyDeleteI love the facade of those buildings, Mar.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great style of architecture....I so wish America would take heart in the 'old world' ways and keep structures like this, but alas....never to be.
ReplyDeleteMy RT is posted, I do hope you can find some time to visit---------
I've been there, Loved it. bought a lots a clocks. Still have them and they still work 20plus years later. Happy RT
ReplyDeleteThose buildings are the kind I have seen in illustrations to fairy tales. I should have known that there would be some real ones, somewhere! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhh the questions that will never be answered.... that place is WONDERFUL! Hard to TAKE a bad picture there!
ReplyDeleteWow, what wonderful architecture in a town that has most certainly withstood the test of time - 16 BC - awesome.
ReplyDeleteLove all the touches of red you pointed out.
Seems the two gentleman (one in a light ruby shirt) thought you were taking their photo. :)
looks as if it is still back in history love to see places I will more than likely never visit thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteLovely red!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely facades, and the reds are an added bonus.
ReplyDeleteOh I wish I could see this picture Bigger and Better....I did click on it, but it just gets a teeny tiny bit bigger---I guess I don't understand Flicker or why people use it, other than the fact that you can show many pictures on it.....All of these pictures from your trip that I have seen so far, are feally wonderful, and an education, for sure, my dear.
ReplyDeleteHow stately the buildings are all in a row. And all different from the one next to it. Love this photo!
ReplyDeletewhat a huge building, awesome place..
ReplyDeleteI love the architecture of the buildings too. They probably have no lifts in them.
ReplyDeleteTrier is a lovely place, it reminds me of a school trip we made when I was a young girl. The houses look like fairy tale houses, made out of cookies!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's allways fascinating to ponder and make fantasies from photos like this one.
ReplyDeleteGreat capture
I think I've been there, coming down from Amsterdam, but I don't remember the town. Aren't those Old World squares and markets nice!
ReplyDeleteI hope your RT was Happy, I am returning your visit. Yes, that is a big gourd hollowed out to make a shekere. It will be used in our church orchestra. I did do an answer post, with even a YouTube to show how to play the thing.
