Servus, Grüzi und Hallo. (black in black please)

I have been to Fulda ( an hour away from Frankfurt) several times for a teach in into my new job.

Unfortunately, (or should I say fortunately?^^) the train drivers strike left me waiting in Frankfurt for a couple of hours until I could catch the next train back home.

Well, the weather was great, early evening sun shining bright and I had no tripod with me, so I had to perform it the old fashioned (handhold) way.

Next time I will have my entire equip with me and more time to spend. You can shoot yourself to death with so many spots all over the city.

This is the western facade of the Westendtower, 208 meters tall, a architectural gem.

May the light be with you.

Hiho everybody, welcome back to my b+w series of architecture fine art. (get a black background)

This piece of architecture has been built in the years 1968 – 1973 and belongs to the BMW automotive enterprise and was the highest building until 1982, 99,5m in total. (not counting the Olympia Tower, which is still the tallest thing in town)

Weather was great, security in a very good mood and me totally alone at the scene, think everybody was having beers and food in the beer gardens around the town. (That’s where I found everybody later^^)

The building embodies a four cylinder engine, the first engine BMW constructed way back.

So, keep on moving guys.
