Love is in the air...

Malta. Upside down. No comment. LOL

 

Au petit bois vert

Funny sign at a nice riverside restaurant.
 

"Old" sardines, lol

They had my year, in the sardine shop! They were delicious!
 

The place to be

It is very hot, up to 37 degrees C, or 99 F. So, lunch on the riverside is a very good idea! Something light.
 

Early morning in town

 

Solo patate, just potatoes

More weekend street/reflections right...here.
 

Bubble bear

Somewhere in Alsace/Elsass. More beautiful b&w right... here
 Even though my first name, Robert, is pronounced Ro-bear in French, this is not a selfie!

Bassin d'Austerlitz

A former port for barges, now a big complex with a cinema, parking lot, restaurants, shopping mall, flats. The towers at the rear are for student housing.

 

Cami

Yet another beautiful Istanbul mosque, cami in Turkish.
 

Rain

After almost 2 months without a single raindrop, the weather changed to something more... normal. Yes we had some long expected rain last week.
 

A Monday mural

Seen on Burano island, in the Venice laguna. More nice murals right... here.
 

Summer

 

CDP July theme day: climate

Well ok, this is an Imoca 60, a very nice way to go around... the world, if you have the time (and the money) for it. Or a sponsor.

Why this photo??? There is an engine on board, but it is mainly wind powered. There are more and more wind powered cargo ships, some of them gigantic, like the Japanese MOL, the French Canopée, the Swedish Oceanbird, an American whose name I forgot, to quote just a few. There are solar powered ships as well. Wind- and solar power are the future, furthermore as there is no planet B.

More posts and photos about this theme here. And more weekend reflections right... here.
 

Weekend in black and white

Wish I was there, on Lokrum Island, near Dubrovnik...

More b&w here.

 

Angry lion

After almost 2 rainless months, we finally had some small thunderstorms. The lion is thirsty, the lion wants more!
 

Colorful dude

Old photo from my archive.
 

Down by the riverside

Earlier this spring. It's much hotter now! The river running through Strasbourg is called Ill. Not sick, just Ill.
 

Bluebeard

With blue eyes.

More Monday murals right... here.
 

Pont Saint Martin

An old 16th century tannery, now a restaurant since the early 20th century. They serve mainly typical Alsatian food, they a good rating. As for me, it's a bit on the (too) expensive side.

Btw, it is a serving plate in the sun.
