Down by the river

 

Southern

Oleander, a southern plant at home in Strasbourg now.
 

Tropical day

36 degrees C today, 97 F. Here is some snow, to freshen down...😂 
 

A Gay Pride smile

The yearly Gay Pride today in Strasbourg. I won't be able to go, so here is an old photo.
 

A close shave

I spent a few days in hospital this week, for a 6 hours middle ear surgery. Home now, but I really need a shave... And more coffee. LOL

More b&w here.
 

Room with a view

The hospital where I spent the last few days.
 

Knock knock

That door looks solid!
 

Stern looking dude

Corner dude, probably angry because of the shit weather. Understandable. Smile, dude!
 

El Gat

I think I saw a pussycat... The Raval cat in Barcelona, by Fernando Botero. Old photo, from my years in Barcelona.

More b&w here.

 

What's your poison?

Seen somewhere, some time ago.
 

At the cathedral

Some fountains to cool the square (and some kids sometimes) down.
 

The Phrygian cap

A metal Phrygian cap that topped the cathedral in 1794, as decided by the anti-clerical revolutionary Strasbourg authorities. Our Lady of Strasbourg was the world's tallest building the with 142 meters.
 

Zeus

Zeus, the metal horse who rode down the Seine in Paris, at last year's olympic games. In Strasbourg for a few days. Photo taken from far away, as I went there 2 hours before opening... Well, no choice in that matter, I couldn't go back later. No idea why they called it Zeus, probably an acronym.
 

CDP theme day: shadows

More photos about this theme right... here.

 

The tourist season is open

Has it ever been closed?
 

Lights

More b&w here.
 

Rainy day

Duck weather.
 

Who's this guy?

Unknown dude from ages ago... Tomorrow, weather depending, I will try taking a photo (or 5, or 10) of non other than...Zeus himself!
 

Parc du Contades

Another park in town. A former shooting range, made into a park in 1764 by the military commander, the Maréchal Louis Georges Erasme de Contades.
