I love the idea of a feed focused on rural life. Pity you’ve got to wait for quite some time till retirement. I left my job in summer 2019, so plenty of time to occupy myself with photography.

Thank you, Jilly, have a great weekend too.

Fortunately!

🥰🌙

Thank e, Mel! 💛😄🌞

Pleasure! 💛😄

You too, Graham.

Hope I’ll never stop to be, would mean I’ve lost myself. Great song, btw.

What a relief! I can imagine that dog walking is no fun in such freezing temperatures, neither for you nor the dogs. Here they have coats for their dogs and sometimes even socks if it gets below -10 Celsius.

Thank you, Pam! 💛

They have everyone wrapped around their paws in no time. 😍

Create one, just like I did with the palaces. It’s lots of fun! Or let’s ask Sheena @sheena-mck.bsky.social if she can reserve the R for rural this time.

Fabulous spring colors, clear and vibrant.

Raindrops dot the pale green Calyx of a Snowdrop Anemone as it splits open to reveal the emerging white bloom. Darker, serrated green leaves surrounded it and two other, smaller buds.

One of the really few advantages of winter is that you get to see the delicate network of the branches.

Memories, I suppose.

A Cabbage White butterfly perches on a sprig of Lavender flowers against a backdrop of greenery.

A cuddle puddle! Heartwarming! 💛

The great escape. 👌🏻 I liked this week because somehow I was lucky to have several frames among my pics.

Sweet memories! 💛

Cheers to second chances!

Close-up portrait of a pale pink pelican with its long bill resting against its chest, showing the textured yellow-green throat pouch and soft blush-coloured feathers. The bird’s eye is sharply in focus beneath a slightly raised crest, while layered wing feathers fill the lower frame. The background is blurred green, suggesting water or vegetation, making the pelican’s delicate colours and intricate feather detail stand out.

Pretty Pelican

Pretty in pink indeed! 💛

Danke gleichfalls! 🌙

A large troll sculpture made out of many pieces of wood on her hand and knees with a pile of wood in front of her. There are two pine trees on the left side and one just behind her butt in the distance. There's snow on the ground and the sky is blue with some low clouds.

Thomas Dambo has built trolls all over the world, and one of them is in my neighborhood, right next to my favorite lost place in Beelitz-Heilstätten.

Ja, große Freude! Leider schneit es immer wieder und soll auch wieder sehr kalt werden. Hoffe, die Meteorologen irren sich.
Dir auch einen gemütlichen Abend! 💛🥰❄️

I wish I could write! But then again it’s just as well to put these words into a photo like you do. 💛

Hab ich vor ein paar tatsächlich auch mal erlebt. Macht Hoffnung.

Same here and temps far below zero. Shock horror. 🤷‍♀️
