    Hamburg: Monday, 24 June 2024

    The first day of my Travel Week, which turns out not to be an entire week after all, since we all have other commitments, but close enough to be satisfying. And where better to start than in Hamburg, on a beautifully sunny Monday morning when, as I thought, there would be little if anything going on, and perhaps a few good images to be caught.

  • Mythical Lion before the Dom in Bremen: biting the neck of a dragon.

    Bremen: Caught in Stone.

    Welcome to fear, and friendliness. The lions in front of the Dom in Bremen are a masterwork of art and representation, even if the tale they appear to tell is not quite Bible-true and they, carved many hundreds of years ago, do not quite look like the lions we see on the Discovery Channel, or the start of old films in the cinema.
