just got asked by the admin of the flickr group called something blue to join the group with this pic^^

Even if I take pics for myself because I just love doing it, getting nice feedback is always sugar for my soul. thank you....

Der gestrige Tag war eigentlich erstmal nicht sonderlich berauschend, vor allem nicht effektiv, insofern, dass ich mal wieder nur die Hälfte von dem, was ich machen wollte, gemacht habe...
Dennoch wurde aus diesem Larifari-Tag letztendlich doch noch ein Tag, an dem ich viel gelacht habe und ein Tag, der mit einer langer Tour mit meinen Sneaks durch den Westpark schön ausklang...

Da meine Mädels gestern alle nicht erreichbar waren, bzw. arbeiten mussten und ich bei dem tollen Wetter nicht in der Wohnung sitzen wollte, schnappte ich mir meine Sneakers und meine Kamera und stiefelte los...zum Westpark.

Wie ich hier schon mal postete, waren einmal meine Freundin Karin und ich zur Jahrhunderhalle gefahren, um dort im Park zu fotografieren...da hatten uns aber komische Kerle in die Flucht geschlagen und ich hatte damals auch nicht viel vom Park gesehen...
Das was ich bis dahin gesehen hatte, war scheinbar nichts Besonderes, aber als ich dann gestern bei Tageslicht dort ankam und weiter runter lief...war ich doch sehr begeistert... Ich wusste gar nicht, dass dort noch ehemalige Fabrikgebäude standen... dass die Grünflächen so weitläufig waren und dass es doch einige coole Spots gab, um meine Schuhe zu fotografieren...

Auch Wasser, und ich liebe es, meine Sneaker an Wasser oder auf Wasser zu fotografieren.
Glück hatte ich auch insofern, dass ich gerade die Abendsonne mit einfangen konnte.
Hier ein paar Fotos...

It was love at first sight when I coincidentally ran into that pic when skipping through seoul pics on flickr...
there is hardly any snow in seoul actually... I cannot remember one single day with snow by the time when I was in seoul...

what I do remember is that when I was in there I asked some korean guy for a korean translation for

I love stepping on freshly fallen snow...I mean somehow I could translate it or rather describe it somehow...but I did want to know what a native korean person would say for this feeling...

I mean I do not quite believe an English native speaker would express is just as I did...

In German:

Ich mag es auf frisch gefallenen Schnee zu laufen...

bzw.

Ich mag es, wie der Schnee knarzt und knirscht, wenn man auf ihm läuft, nachdem er gerade frisch gefallen ist...


Oder

Ich mag das Knarzen frischgefallenen Schnees unter Schritten...



Oder hey...

Moment mal...

Was mag ich eigentlich ganz genau...

das Geräusch oder das Laufen oder den SChnee..?

Let me explain


Ich mag das Gefühl, auf frisch gefallenem Schnee zu laufen.... zu fühlen, wie der frisch gefallene Schnee, die frisch gefallenen Schneeflocken unter dem Gewicht Deiner Schritte, zu einer festen Masse zusammengepresst werden...
Ebenso mag ich das Knarzen, das dadurch entsteht... Es ist nicht nur ein Geräusch dieses Knarzen, es ist ein Gefühl...ich kann das Knarzen nämlich nicht nur hören, ich kann es fühlen unter meinen Schuhen, Schritt für Schritt...


So...in English..

What do I like about the whole thing...is it the sound, is it the actual action of walking in snow or is it the snow itself?
well now..
it is the feeling to walk on snow...hell yeah, it is a feeling...
I love feeling how the freshly fallen snow or rather the light snowflakes happen to get compressed to one big mass under the weight of your steps...
I also love the sound that comes out of it... It is not only a sound, it is a feeling...cos it is not like I just hear the sound...I can feel it under my shoes, step by step...

To sum it up:
I just love walking on freshly fallen snow!

But hey, who doesn´t?,

What about you?

there is something sad about this pic... some kind of farewell... as u ain´t see the woman´s face u don´t know whether it was a happy or a sad farewell...

in fact, that ain´t true...there was no farewell... that woman was just sneaking around the palace looking for some good spots to shoot, too^^ that was just what came spontaneously to my mind by looking at this pic=)

loved that pic...coincidentally found it on flickr...

where I grew up...

as I already told ya... I finally got to take my sneaks to my hometown... Saarlouis...really tiny and there is nothing really...nevertheless it is a charming town... whenever I get back everything seems to have changed...

I climbed up a hill in order to take some pics with view over saarlouis...=) easy to get on top...difficult to get down without falling...especially with my camera in one hand and a bagpack full of sleek in the other one...
but somehow I got down... might have looked funny though...
but I don´t mind, eh.... it is all about some nice pics...!

that is...

what u can see when taking a look out off our living room window...

see...my sleeks go with the beat...yeahhhhh!!
apart from that they match my mum´s beautiful flowers perfectly, eh?

it was essential for me to finally take my sneaks all home and get some sneakersOntour pics there...

for you it might all look the same...u might wonder...
hey, that girl is so weird...takin´all those same pics again and again and again...

but u know...to me it is not all the same because wherever I go I am takin my shoes... I love my shoes so they gotta go to the places I love, too... sneakers on tour is a way to bring them together...!

eventually I succeeded in getting to stay some days with my family. it has been years...

I had some really lovely days... it felt good to be back... during the last seven years, I hardly got to see my family more than three or four times a year... I had been abroad for some time, yes... but apart from that... there is nothing justifying this sad truth...

well, will be back at the end of the month for my grandparents´ 60th wedding anniversary..

they are so lovely, sure they grew older every day and in some way it is breakin´ my heart to see it...as I cannot get back home very often, whenever I get to see em again, they seem to have got a little bit older...

nevertheless they are still in good shape for their ages...still teasing each other... my grandpa is turning ninety next year and he still drives a car...=))

no far distances, but hey... that is quite an unsual thing to do....at his age...

it was really good to spend some time with my beloved grandparents!!

I also got to take my godchild to horseriding...I used to go horseriding for more than 8 years... it was one of my passions when I was a girl... in fact, it might have been my only real passion...
I loved it so much, I even wanted to run a horse farm one day...
I even absolved my internship in the 9th grade at the riding stable I used to take riding lessons at...

the last time I got there might have been 6 years ago or even more...I do not quite remember...

it was weird to be back...I knew it has been ages, but all still felt familar to me and sure there were familar faces...

some of them still recognised me...=)

but the most surprising thing was that my former riding teacher did not teach anymore...instead a girl I knew from then does now...

and by then she was still such a little girl...
now she must be around 20, but looks a lot older than me....

and seeing here that grown-up made me so conscious of the fact how much time must have passed by...
it was funny, but it was shocking in some way...
cos somehow I still feel like the little girl from then every once in a while...


I had some lovely days and in fact it was the first time for ages that I really did not want to get back...

usually it was like I needed to get back to Bochum because I was not used anymore to being in company the whole time... plus there is always a lot of work waiting for me...but this time I just forgot about the whole shit...finally...

I need to work on that...!

thank you for some lovely days, you guys.
love you lots...!
