Last week I went to a seminar in Weimar in the eastern part of Germany. Weimar is an international culture city and was home to Goethe, Schiller, Johann Sebastian Bach, Franz Liszt, and Friedrich Nietzsche to name a few.

I got the chance to get out and take some pics of the place. It was pretty overcast but I managed to get a few which I've posted here.

The beer is excellent there too :)

Wow, very impressive. I'd be pleased if I got any one of those pic on a trip, let alond the entire bunch.

My favourite might be the alley .... did any significant post processing go into that one?

Perplexing though, they stay in focus all the way through, yet I am guessing thanks to the beer you did not. Ahhh, the wonders of AF ;)

Excellent photos Kiwi, you've inspired me to get out of the "studio" shoot more.

Wow. Great shots. I especially like the aesthetics and novelty of "Window Painter". I think you might want to perspective correct it, at least somewhat.

Have you brought me some? :-)))

Wonderful shots, Gary! I think you already know "Playing" is my favourite among all of them, but I love all these photos you have made in Weimar! Thanks for sharing and keep on making such wonderful shots! :-)

A fine representation of Weimar, kiwi. I wandered these streets more than a decade ago, oddly enough, attending a symposium like you. Although still charming, the place was in ill repair, and the air was thick with lignite smoke. Somehow, it came to me, how much it appeared to resemble the state of a cultured society at the time. Your photos did much to restore that initial impression. And, ...

regardless of time and politics, the quality of the beer in this place seems to remain impervious to change. :-)

'Playing' is the dreamiest image I've seen for a long time.
