usually this parking area directly next to the arena of our local volleyball club vfb friedrichshafen, that has one of the best, if not even the best volleyball team in europe, is well-filled with vehicles from all the spectators. but on non-matchdays and into the bargain at dark night only a very few people and cars stray on the grounds.

in these days of icy winter the underground acts as a welcome escape from the cold. however sooner or later the clear blue frost will outrun everybody, at the latest after it had completely converged to the dark black of the night.

up to yesterday i didn't know that a fridge can be such a social place. during the evening every guest of my mate dominik's great birthday party availed oneself perceived three to four times with beer and other chilled stuff from the refrigerator. if you had set yourself the goal to meet some new people, you simply had to wait at the fridge for the next thirsty person.

thank you all for the wonderful night.

in search of a minimum of colour in the last days the photographer's last hope is the winter bloom of a few indoor plants, if only during the grey season.

out of the white these small trees are growing supported by the helping stakes in the middle of the forest. in some places nature needs our affirming devotion, as well as we are sometimes dependent on a refreshment by the pure and clear mother nature.

nila's white socks are only one, obvious display of her overall correctness. posture, expression, sequence of movements: simply everything points to her pride.

currently we are chilled through by the returned winter's cold again. related to the vastness of our lake constance or an unwavering monument at the lakeside humans appear only unimportant and tiny again. additionally the constrained perception of our monochromatic, white surrounding amplifies this effect. that's the way i often look on our world and that hasn't hurt me yet.

being home alone isn't easy for me, especially not if the affected span is longer than a few days. better being distracted by tina's attendance than being driven to distraction because of absolute loneliness. any way, tina causes T-istraction, even if she isn't at our place.

today i like to give away something: my grandpa has no need for this brand-new model of a former, east german truck 'ifa h6 kipper'. so if there are any collectors of historic stuff between my readers, please don't hesitate to write me an email or comment below this post - i'll send you the miniature replica of this historic art of engineering from the gdr for free.

the most significant comments below philipp poisel's music videos are definitely the foreign ones: 'i've no f***ing idea what this guy is singing about, but he's freakin' awesome'. see it for yourself and feel free to judge afterwards: without understanding the language, what do you thing, what might he sing about?
