Weekend post

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend, enjoy! The day has dawned cold, clear and sunny here, I was able to watch a beautiful sunrise while drinking my first, wonderful coffee of the day - it always tastes EXTRA good!

I  have one more tag for Michele's theme of seeds and plants at Tag Tuesday
I used images from Serif and me to create the tag. The quote is, of course, from Ecclesiastes 3,1:


Early morning and sunrise today:









Evening photos from the Altstadt taken by my friend Nelya:





And sunset at the Rhine on Wednesday:






The wild geese flying back to 'their' lakes:






Have a wonderful weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  1. Hi Val, good morning! We got off to a sunny start here today, too, always so much nicer than rain. t makes the kids behave better, too, the like grumping when it's wet! Love the beautiful tag and quote, and all the wonderful photos. It must be cold taking those pics early in the morning, and I bet you were still in your pyjamas on the balcony! The sunset scenes are great, too. We all need light and sunshine just now! Have a nice day, take care, we're off to Mum's after lunch. Hugs, Sarah

  2. For a change I had a coffee, too!
    Well, it tasted OK.
    "Back to nature" ist ein ... argh. jetzt weiß ich das Wort in keiner Sprache mehr!
    Guter Vorsatz? Oh, Hilfe...
    Sehr schöne Fotos! In ein riesiges Riesenrad kriegt mich niemand.
    Eventuell unser Kleines beim Weihnachtsmarkt. Eventuell...
    Dir glG, Iris

  3. It's been a wonderful combination of colour and theme this fortnight, i've loved what I managed to catch a glimpse of. Just like you marvellous sky views, do you ever print your pictures off Valerie?? They's be magnificent all contained in a photo album.
    At last I have a free weekend, no on call duties today (you can probably hear my sigh of relief from there as I type it..) There may even be a chance for some creative playtime later.. I think I may have forgotten just how to play :))
    Wishing you a super weekend take good care now lovely. Hugs Tracey xx

  4. I agree with you about the first cup of coffee being the best of the day. If my wife and I are awake at the same time she always waits to get up until I have come down and have the coffee pot on. Funny how that doesn't seem to work in reverse!

  10. That's a stunning tag. I like how you positioned the duck behind the clock and the wheat to the left, which reminded me of peacock feathers. It's a glorious tag, dear.

    I LOVED your sunrises and sunsets. I also enjoyed Nelya's photos of the Atstat. I especially like the one of the eye and the people on the pedestal. There's another blogger who uses those people as her blog header.

    These are super shots of both sunrises and sunsets. I enjoyed seeing the geese with the contrail in the background, too. Hope your day is going well.

  19. A lovely tag Valerie, with the perfect quote.
    We've been cold, wet and very grey, so your sunrise and sunset pictures are a welcome sight. You do seem to get the most magnificent sunrises, the colours are stunning.

  20. Love the harvest warmth of your tag - so full of autumn fire. And so are your wonderful sunrises and sunsets. I've hardly seen daylight this week, never mind sunrise! Will catch up properly soon.

  24. I do like this tag Valerie. It is really clever to use the clock in the body. And your friend took some stunning photos. Seems the colder it gets the more dramatic the sky often becomes. Hugs-Erika
