Weekend in black and white

Seen in a shop window in Florence, a while ago. Want more b&w, dudes and dudesses? Click HERE, now!
 

Put some flowers on your head

I confess: I have no idea what this is about. Just reminds me of an old song.
 

Urban rainbow

On the Ill river. And no, the building on the side is not Hogwarts! Just an international school.
 

The old municipal grain store

Build in 1441, restored in 2002, the building is a huge 130 meters long. It helped the city manage it's subsistance policy in terms of combating food shortage and grain speculation. Nowadays,  it houses workshops, rehearsal and music studios on the Opéra National du Rhin, Rhine National Opera.
 

A Monday Mural

Another part of the very long mural at the museum of modern art. Pink devil and three-eyed birdie...

More Monday Murals right...here.
 

Simply the best!

This is the best bakery in the north-eastern quarter of France. They got an national award. Ab fab!
 

A bony weekend reflection

Some exhibition at the Alsatian museum, musée alsacien, exhibition called "Fantasmagorie". The old tollhouse, ancienne douane, now a trendy restaurant, in the background.

The phantasmagoria designates a spectacle of projection of luminous figures animated in the dark, simulating supernatural appearances.

More weekend reflections to be admired here.
 

Le marché

At the market, on a cold winter day... Oh wait: it was this morning... Everybody masked, good! Anyway, more b&w here, as usual

Short explanation... On Fridays, I usually post a b&w photo. Well, I forgot, thought today was Thursday. Therefore, 2 photos today. Coffee needed, 7 or so hours after waking up!

Fancy a bretzel?

Well, bretzels are important in local tradition!
 

One becomes many

Can't say I understand the meaning of this huge mural at the museum of modern art, but hey: it's good enough for a post! One becomes many, where timbers glow, whatever this means.

Wait for me!

Cafés and restaurants are (partly) reopening on May 19th. Partly means: outside only, sunshine, snow or rain. I'll have a coffee there!
 

A very official symbol

1749??? You've gotta be kidding! It's sooo much older! Pretzel in the US, Brezel in Germany, Bretzel or Bretstel in Alsacian. This is the official symbol for the region Alsace:

Anyway, more info here.
