Watching the sunset

Lately evening on the Maintower in Frankfurt.

PABUCA: lost

For weeks I have had no idea at all, what to shoot for the lost-theme on this weeks PABUCA. You barely find lost objects on the street that are worth photographing. So I decided to help the pictures a bit and „loose“ something on the street….

So I found a little mouse in the greenery, she seemed to be rather lost near the Deutsche Bank Towers.

I decided to follow her and her next stop was the pedestrian tunnel under the Central Station.

In the end I found her again on a bench in front of the Römer. This is where her journey ended, now she is sitting here with me, watching me write that posting. She is obviously not lost any more.

 

And vor everyone who is missing my contribution to this weeks Magic Monday, sorry folks, I did not feel creative at all yesterday. This will follow later this week.

PABUCA: Night

So it is nighttime in the PABUCA-World. If you have expected one of these awesome nighttime skyline panoramas, I am sorry, there is none. The problem is actually that I haven’t yet had time to go and shoot one I like. Will happen at some point in future, though.

Anyway, here are the remaining non-skyline-pictures, hope you like them anyway… We will go from big to small this week.

At least part of the skyline: the new Tower for the European Central Bank. And the River Main, of course…

A bit smaller: We do have very colorful elevators here. Yes, it is really pink, I didn’t cheat!

But we can go smaller than that. One of the last Taxi callposts in the town.

PABUCA: People

All about typical Frankfurt people this week at PABUCA. There is not much to say about this, Frankfurt is the home for all kinds of people this world has to offer and it is impossible to show all in just three pictures.

First person is the host of „alle wetter“, a TV weather show in local TV. When the weather is right, the show is sent live from the Maintower visitors terrace.

Second „person“ is the typical audience on a typical saturday in the MyZeil mall. It is sometimes even more crowded…

Third and final person is a random guy cooling down during a very hot day in summer. Not an everyday view here but still typical enough.

PABUCA: Rain

This weeks topic for PABUCA is „rain“, so be careful, it’s about to get wet.

I’ve been a bit struggling to find good pictures, as I am usually not going out taking pictures when it is raining. But I still found a few for you.

Not sure if there used to be more on this sign.

Nice view from the Maintower after a short rain shower. Thankfully the blue sky is back already.

Stadt/Wald

Frankfurt, die grüne Metropole.

schlechtes Wetter

Ich hab fast ein halbes Jahr gebraucht, aber hier ist endlich ein schlechtwetterfoto für Netty.

Wer auch Motivwünsche hat, darf sich gerne melden, sollte aber Geduld mitbringen…

Im Nebel

Heute früh wurde, wie im letzten Post angekündigt, der AfE-Turm der Goethe-Uni in Frankfurt gesprengt. Ich hatte vor, das ganze vom Maintower aus zu fotografieren, wo man eigentlich eine super Sicht auf das Geschehen haben sollte. Naja, sollte…. Ich hatte nicht mit den sehr tief hängenden Wolken gerechnet, daher gibt es einen anderen Turm, der aber nicht gesprengt wurde.
