Week 34 – The Barman…
This is Pepe!
If you ever happen to fancy a drink in Potsdam, his place is the best in town….
P.S. The clue is on the t-shirt….

Week 23 – Christmas Dinner …..
….. or now you see me, now you don’t!
One of these pictures is taken with the Fuji X100 and post-processed with NIK to simulate my favourite Kodak Portra 400 film. The other picture was taken with the Yashica 124G on Kodak Portra 400. Can you tell which is which?
Week 21 – Our Hols…. (Part One)
It’s the first time I’ve been to Sweden and it certainly lived up to my expectations in every way. The children and I found plenty of highly qualified candidates suitable for the position of a Swedish Au Pair, a subject which has long been discussed within the family 😉

Week 32 – The Belvedere ….. again
I’m being very lenient with myself this week, not only am I using the British definition of a week (i.e. Sunday to Saturday, instead of the German Monday to Sunday), but I’m also posting something for the second time (see week 1) albeit from a very different angle.
Week – 27 …… beside the seaside
I wouldn’t say that we had really bad weather during our annual week’s holiday on the Baltic, but it could have been a little better!
Week 25 – Stardom
This guy just sat down and started hammering away at those drums …. it was a pleasure to listen to!
This was developed as if it had been shot on Agfa APX 400 film.
Week 21 – The Simple Life
It has been a bit of a stressful week, what with one thing and another. So here is something simple and seasonal. It’s my favourite time of year in rural Brandenburg.
Have a good summer!
Week 29 – Coming Home
Some of you might have guessed that the project has not died, moreover everybody is entitled to a bit of a holiday sometime.
After driving back through Germany and the Netherlands this was the view that greeted us on the Stena ferry taking us home.
There will be more to come over the next few days to catch up.

Week 27 – The Saale
After a short weekend break in the south of the country, this week’s post is centred around the river Saale.
