The image depicts a lively outdoor scene at a kite festival. In the foreground, two people stand on a grassy field, facing upward. They are handling a large, colorful kite shaped like a series of orange octopuses stacked vertically, with long, flowing orange tentacles trailing downward. The kite is soaring high in a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds.In the background, various other kites are visible, including a yellow and red one shaped like a turtle, a circular kite with a colorful pattern, and a ring-shaped kite with a red heart inside it. The field is filled with more people, some standing and others walking, all enjoying the event. Trees and a forested area line the horizon, adding a natural backdrop to the festive atmosphere. The overall mood is cheerful and vibrant, with a clear focus on the impressive array of kites.

Its chest and paws are predominantly white. The cat's large, tufted ears and striking green eyes are prominent, giving it an alert and curious expression as it gazes to the side. In the background, there is a window with curtains and a view of greenery outside, along with a textured white wall.

The image shows the shadows of a person and a horse cast on a ground covered with wood chips. The shadow of the person is on the left, depicting a human figure standing upright with arms raised, holding a camera. The shadow of the horse is on the right, featuring a distinct horse head with ears, a long neck, and a body, suggesting the horse is standing close to the person. The ground texture is uneven, with scattered wood chips, and the lighting indicates the sun is low, creating long, clear shadows.

'Bäume' #FotoVorschlag

#PletzfeldNature #photography #nature #NaturePhotography #darktable #mywork #myphoto

A vibrant autumn scene featuring the upper branches of a tree densely covered in golden-yellow leaves, many of which are turning shades of orange and brown at the edges, indicating fall foliage. The leaves are broad and lobed, suggesting a species like a maple or chestnut. Thin branches extend outward, creating a canopy that fills most of the frame. The background is a clear, bright blue sky with scattered, fluffy white clouds, adding contrast to the warm tones of the leaves. The photo is taken from a low angle, looking upward, with sunlight illuminating the foliage from above, giving it a glowing appearance. The overall mood is serene and seasonal, evoking the beauty of autumn.

A close-up photograph of an old wooden double door set into a rustic stone wall. The door is arched at the top, framed by a rounded arch made of reddish-pink sandstone blocks. The door panels are constructed from vertical wooden planks arranged in a chevron or herringbone pattern, pointing inward toward the center seam where the two halves meet. The wood appears weathered, with a warm brown tone and visible grain. Surrounding the door, the wall is composed of irregularly shaped stones in shades of red, brown, beige, and gray, mortared together with some white plaster visible in the joints. To the right of the door, there's a small rectangular stone slab or cover embedded in the wall, possibly a access panel or old mailbox slot. The ground in front is paved with uneven cobblestones. The overall scene evokes a historical or medieval European building, with signs of age like dirt, cracks, and slight discoloration on the stones and wood.

Jokers (Three Different Ones ;-)

''*' (Joker, Freispiel)' #FotoVorschlag

#PletzfeldMomentsInTime #photography #darktable #mywork #myphoto

Three performers in vibrant medieval-fantasy costumes are captured mid-jump on a small wooden outdoor stage during a sunny street festival in a German town. The leftmost is an adult man dressed as a pirate or rogue, wearing a black tattered hood, white skull-like face paint around his eyes and mouth, a gray sleeveless jerkin over a light shirt, black pants with a white stripe down one leg, and rugged brown boots adorned with bells and straps, leaping forward with an intense expression. In the center, a young boy in a jester outfit sports a red pointed cap with bells, a blue-and-red split tunic and matching leggings with a black collar, and simple blue shoes, jumping with relaxed arms and a neutral look. On the right, an adult woman as an elf or fairy has long reddish-brown hair in a high ponytail with pink flowers and green antennae-like headpieces, green face paint with red dots and leaf patterns, a green-and-maroon laced corset, turquoise-and-magenta leggings with leaf details, and brown lace-up boots with bells, mid-leap with her right fist raised and a playful puckered-lip expression. The background features a light-colored building with green shutters, a wooden sign reading “Bühne” for stage, a beige canvas tent, woven reed fencing, a large drum, wicker basket, wooden crates, a few onlookers in mixed period and modern clothing, creating a festive and energetic atmosphere.

A stone archway frames the scene, covered in lush green ivy vines that drape over its curved top. On the left side of the arch hangs a vintage black lantern with a yellow bulb, marked with the number "1." Through the arch, a cobblestone pathway leads into a sunny courtyard. Ahead stands a traditional half-timbered building in German style, with white plaster walls crisscrossed by dark wooden beams forming geometric patterns. A large, open wooden gate with a zigzag design in reddish-brown slats reveals a small arched doorway beyond. The ground is paved with uneven gray cobblestones, dotted with patches of grass, and sunlight casts soft shadows, creating a quaint, historic atmosphere.

Gently down the stream.

#PletzfeldMomentsInTime #photography #minimalism #darktable #mywork #myphoto

A calm, open body of water fills most of the frame under overcast daylight. In the center of the image, a sleek, narrow, bright red rowing shell (a four-person sweep boat) glides smoothly across the water. The boat is viewed from behind and slightly above.Four rowers sit in a single-file line facing backward toward the stern. Each rower holds two oars that extends out to the side of the boat; the white blades of the oars are just entering or leaving the water in mid-stroke, creating small splashes and ripples. There is no coxswain visible, suggesting this is a coxless four. The water around the boat is grayish-blue and gently rippled, with no land, other boats, or horizon visible in the frame.

#ArtAdventCalendar 2025 Day 20: Meema's tulip bowl.

My grandmother (my Meema) painted a tulip bowl still life when she was 16; her painting now hangs in my home. I was admiring the bowl's shape and thought, "maybe I could make that!"

So here is my Meema's tulip bowl, brought to life.

#ArtAdventCalendar 2025 Day 21: a San Francisco garden view for the final day of my solstice art advent calendar.

Happy solstice! 🌞

I finished this stained glass window this summer. My design features flowers that grow all over San Francisco: California poppies, Douglas irises, and angel's trumpets.
