Fountains from 1878 and 1854


The Kein Trinkwasser tag on the 1878 fountain is clearly visible. In the background, with its crown of red geraniums, is the 1854 fountain.

Notice the white/grey sky. We've had a lot of it recently.

Around fountain 1878


(After the comment by Richard in Zürich). The label is just above the spigot. Kein Trinkwasser = not drinking water.


The iron fencing.


Hydrangea, up close and personal.

The garden II


This is what the garden looks like from our kitchen window. Maybe they should take inspiration from the painted fire hydrants in Stilli (1, 2, 3) and do something with that utility box.


I couldn't resist posting another street-level shot of the garden.

Poppies and wheat fields, multiple takes


This was my first choice for a while.


I like the way the background is out of focus in this second shot, but then my point was to also highlight the wheat, so that's why I eliminated it.


What I like about the third photo is how the flower is lit from the back and it's face on.

Pink flower with bee


Surely someone will tell me what this flower is called, and what type of bee this is ...
