Seen on the Way

Posted on December 3, 2019 by vanbraman

Tonight I will just share a few pictures of things ‘Seen on the Way’ during the trip so far.

graffiti, train, germany, in motionI took this picture on the way from the Frankfurt airport to Jena.

While waiting for my train I was trying to capture the interesting graffiti on one of the regional trains that had come through the station.

I snapped the picture just a little too late as the train started to accelerate out of the station.

However, I found the blurry image quite interesting as it showed the motion of the train.

On the way to work on Monday I spotted this mitten in a tree. I am sure that someone found it on the ground and put it where it could be found by the owner. This morning it was no longer there.

mini car, electric car, small commuter

Shortly after seeing the mitten in the tree I heard a rattling behind me and turned and saw a little vehicle headed toward me. Here is is after it passed me.

Someone has a cute little electric commuter car.

What else will will be ‘Seen on the Way’ during this trip?

Monday Reflections in Jena

Posted on December 2, 2019 by vanbraman

This morning I will post a few pictures I took yesterday of reflections. I was too tired last night to write anything, but it is still last night at home 🙂

Saale River, Jena Germany, trees, sky reflection

I cross over the Saale River on my walk to work in the morning. With the early morning light there were some nice reflections of the trees and sky in the calm water.

Here is another view looking straight down river.

This picture was taken on the way back from the office. Most likely I will not see the evening reflections for the rest of the week as it will be dark by the time I walk back to the hotel.

Jena, Germany, reflections, Christmas decorations

This picture was taken in the city center and the large Ferris wheel from the carnival is reflected in one of the store windows.

The Ferris wheel was also reflected in the display window of Werners Head Shop. The reflection made for an interesting picture.
