It is snowing in April, when it is supposed to be Frühling. Is this nature’s way of saying pineapple on pizza is now normal, or orange juice in espresso is now normal? It’s so odd, I hope not!

This is Bosco Verticale, which is Italian for Vertical Forest 🌳 🏙 Saw this last summer in Milan but saw it again in a lecture today on sustainability. Turns out the over 100 different plant species, which are fed by recycled waste water, provide natural pollution and temperature control, in a building that is energetically self-sustained. Amazing, isn’t it? 🤩

Somewhere under Buda hills is a long cave with magnificent stalactites, and an annoyed guide who had to wait for me so I could get a macro shot of this poser.

There’s an idiom in Hindi, ईद का चांद होना (Eid ka chaand hona), which is equivalent to “once in a blue moon”. I guess no one told the author that the winter Sun ☀️ is far more notorious than ईद का चांद 🙄 Spotting the winter Sun should be celebrated like Eid 😑

“Der Weihnachtsmarkt" The vibrant lights dance to the music of the laughs of children, the colours are complemented with sweet and savoury aromas of Crêpes, Waffles, Wurst, Printen, Churros and Zimtschnecken. Aerial perspective captured adventurously from my “Flying Car”

Macro shots are like puzzles - guess what it is? Also, isn’t it ironic, that it is called macro photography but it really should be micro photography?

Sep 29, 2021, 6:27 AM

Now I’m fascinated with macro photography 🤩 BTW that’s my succulent on my desk, adding green to my desk, gobbling sunlight ☀️ and growing healthily🪴

Can the watch-keeper see me 🔭 taking this picture from that tiny window in the tower of the Lobkowicz Palace? 🤔 Maybe, maybe not 🤷🏻‍♂️ but I am sure they could sense my inability to pronounce Lobkowicz 😌 Prague, Czech Republic

This street is called the Duchess Walk 👸 That’s the London Bridge in the background. And someone’s clothing in the balcony in the foreground 🤦‍♂️ . First, why call it the Duchess Walk! 🤭 How many times does the Duchess actually walk this street! Second, the Queen’s Walk is just around the corner, and it is so much longer than the Duchess Walk. But okay, royalty, I get it 👑 Third, I am already seeing ads for spaces to rent in these apartments! 😳 🤯 Why would Insta and other Big Eyes 👀 only snoop my Photos 🖼 and not my accounts 🏦 . Another #throwback to the #vacation in #London, the city whose vibes always draw me to her 🥰

Entrance to the iconic Elbphilharmonie, Hamburg. It’s a concave curve, so you cannot see the end of the tunnel from the beginning. You are nudged to savour the glass-sequin facade, not knowing when you’ll arrive at the end. Sets a dramatic entry tone for an astounding acoustic masterpiece.
