bird of prey
26 December 2005

A lonely bird of prey in front of the sunset. Perhaps he search something to eat or he enjoys the great perspective.



It must be wonderful to levitate over all things...


frosty weather
25 December 2005

The day starts with a view over a field and with a sunrise.



It's light-colored and the picture seems warm but it is very cold and there is snow on the edge of the field. The road is very narrow and you must drive to the edge at oncoming cars.



The moss and the oak leave on the ground is frozen.



It will last for some hours until the plants have defrost.


memorial stone

This is an older photo, I have taken it in autumn, it's a world war memorial stone and it's in a little village with 200 inhabitants. I like the autumn colors...



The upper part is dedicated to the dead soldiers of the world war 1914-1918 and the lower part is dedicated to the dead soldiers of the world war 1939-1945. Also civilians have died at bomb raids in 1945, for example two sisters, Lilli was 14 and her little sister Renate was 5 years old as they died. A 16 years old boy died at an antiaircraft gun, he served as a "Flakhelfer".

a bad day
24 December 2005

As I had expected, it was today a terrible day and anything that could go wrong is go wrong. I was invited for a Christmas lunch by my parents and before it, I have paid a visit to my grandma to give her a Christmas present. My bad expectations were transgressed, after the visit I was in a bad temper and very sad.

During the drive I asked myself why the life is so unpleasant and whether it can get more worse. Why certainly! If there is a worse time for something to go wrong, then it will happen and I had a car breakdown... I have left my car and I walked the last 4 kilometres. The Christmas lunch was not better, I was allowed to listen to a lecture what I have made wrong in my life and what I could do better...

Afterwards I wanted to be alone and went home. My feelings were a mixture of self-hate, sadness and anger. Suddenly a friend has called me and asked me whether I would like to coming to a party with some friends. The party is far away and he wanted to pick me up with his car. I thought it would be better as to brood at home and I have accept his offer. Every solution breeds new problems...I have waited and waited but he didn't come. I have called and asked him when he pick me up. He said to me, that they are already on the party and my friends have forgotten me...

Now I am sitting alone at home, drink a lot of beer and I watch the movie "Scrooged".


I beat some records
22 December 2005

I have taken only two photos within the last week and these are not good.




The last two weeks I was very busy and I have beat some records.



I had scanned more than 1100 pages of world war 2 magazines...this is not a misspelling, these were really over 1100 pages.

Yesterday morning I was in Hamburg and I have not found a parking lot. I have sought very long and found a parking lot far away from the shopping street. Then I had a new problem, I was allowed to park on this parking lot only one hour and it was very expensive. I had to run to the shopping street, bought two books and took many photos of some historical insignia. I had to sprint after that to my car because I had overrun the parking time by half an hour. It is a record to create all this within 90 minutes in the Christmas time.

Because of the long sought for a parking lot I had lost much time and I must to an appointment in my place of residence, which is 30 kilometres away. I had the appointment within 45 minutes and you usually need for this way over an hour in Hamburg. I have driven at excessive speed and needed only 30 minutes for this way! My car has a maximum speed of 165 km/h and I made 195 km/h on the freeway...it's unbelievable!! The speed-limit on the freeway is 100 km/h...

I have smoked to many cigarettes and this is the last and teariest record.


I am alive
10 December 2005


I am not absent without leave Porter... "lol" I was busy with other important things and within the next days I have a little more time. Tomorrow I pay a visit to the blogs of my friends.
