Yesterday, there were thunderstorms over Germany, floodings, and hail as big as birds’ eggs. In Icking, however, we only heard some thunder, felt some raindrops, and saw impressive skies.

When we arrived, the weather in the Netherlands wasn’t quite as fair as we had wished, but then, all of a sudden, I had to think of the wise words of a good friend of mine. She once observed that, behind the clouds, the sun is shining ... always. You know that I’m not much of a philosopher, but this I found to be true.

As seen from my study. There were thunderbolts too, but they were too fast for me.

A wide-angle shot. The mountains seem to be farther away than they actually are. Photography is all about choices: you can’t have everything ... which makes me sad and angry, but not suicidal –to conclude in a lighter vein! ;-)

Shot not long before this one, but with a quite different atmosphere: There is a bird of prey cruising above Isar Valley –a familiar sight. Some of them are big and would eat a dachshund for breakfast. Robbie is aware of that.

The weather report for Pentecost isn’t particularly promising, but who needs a weather report?

The view from my window isn’t always as pretty as this: in the central background is Icking’s collecting point for recyclable material... However, heavy weather makes poetry out of prosaic subjects.
