@Catty1: LOL :D

@auggie: Did you live in Germany? I'm going to post the original "Mohnblumen" in the next post. :)

Kirsten

@Kirsten: "LOL :D" is NOT an answer, Fraulein! :p

Catty1: Okay, you're right. :D But I think I better start with the tower photo I showed you. :)

auggie, here are the originals, not very impressive...

What do you mean by “not very impressive”?
Of course they are, silly girl! They’re beautiful! Keep them coming!
Yes, I’m German. I was in Germany the first two weeks in May and this is my sad attempt of capturing a Poppy field. I didn’t get close enough because I had my Mom in the car, who desperately needed to find a bathroom.

auggie, the poppy picture and one of the others won't show up for me. Where was the last one (the one of the tower) taken? From which area in Germany do you/your ancestors come?

Kirsten

I moved them over to imagestation.
The tower is part of the church in the picture right below.
I’m from Rheinland Pfalz, but grew up near Hamburg.
I hope I didn't highjack your beautiful picture threat with my crappy photos.

Gorgeous renditions! :D

I do not think your photos are crappy! They show a beautiful scenery. I've never been to Rheinland Pfalz so far, but judging from your pictures (and others I think), it must be a nice place with this grape-vine and all. :) I was in Hamburg a couple of times. When did you move away from Germany?
