Take a look at the pics of the protected landscape called the “ Mönchbruch “.
This wonderful grassland landscape you will find in the south, next to the city of Darmstadt.
Especially in autumn and winter a paradise of silence and peace.
If you have luck, perhaps deers or foxes or other animals of the wood you can meet.
Next to this, there is a little hunting lodge for your break or event or something like that.
Come and find out! :)
Another hotspot in autumn leisure times is the spa gardens of the city of Bad Nauheim.
You will find a little lake with rowboats, perfect trimmed green areas and the brand new “ Elvis “ bronze statue.
BTW: Elvis spent his military service in Friedberg and visited in the fifties the park because he lived in the city of Bad Nauheim, this time.
So I can say, an awesome place, not only for rock’ n roll fans!
A wonderful destination in autumn is the botanical garden of the Phillips- University next to the city of Marburg.
It is one of the biggest gardens in Germany in size. And one of the loveliest, especial in autumn. You will find fruits like ALIENS, a lot of grasses, butterflies in a greenhouse and the gigantic Victoria- Water-Lily together with insect-eating plants.
The foliage changes the color, mostly into red and yellow and on a sunny day you are able to walk full day on the area with greenhouses and butterfly house, you see.
Take pics, have a walk, get a snack or visit the tropical houses, anyway you will have an awesome day out there :) !
Today I would like to give you some impressions of the well known “Bergpark”-fauna.
The “Bergpark” is a designed areal near the city of Kassel, in the north of Hesse and a European Garden Heritage.
Created since 1696, today in summer you see wonderful green parts, with a little bit of the “Angor” feeling ;) .
On top, it’s the giant monument of “ Herkules” , every summer (not in corona), you will find a date where the water games will be show. A very good reason to take pictures like these!
Two shots in the night, taken in our biggest city, Frankfurt/M.
First pic shows downtown during an upcoming thunderstorm. Second a detail
of the legendary central station during the art light festival “ Luminale “!
An urban exploration in this town is always a recommendation!
The grasslands of Hesse are also perfect to explore by horse.
The woods and fields are lovely and at the end of summer its not so hot for human and animal.
By the way you will see ferns, greens, any animals and sometimes little castles like “ Staufenberg “, on the first pic.
Anyhow, perfect for your heart and soul to relax!
The home of finest photography and architecture: The “Leica Welt“ in Wetzlar!
Try to give you my best b&w photography for this high end areal.
An early light and some lucky clouds at the LEITZ PARK gave me these pics.
You will find the production and design buildings, the shops, the museum, unique exhibitions and so much more out there, fantastic for all kind of photographers and friends of arts.
Try it, you will like it :) ! ( Notice: No bought media )
Feels like the home of the legendary “7 Dwarfs” of the Brothers Grimm.
This mystic corner in the woods of the south of Hesse is a little bit spooky, but very nice atmosphere to explore.
Did it early in the morning with some deers in my back, very special ;) !
Found that rare subjects in the middle of Hesse, on a farmers land.
It seems like cotton plants in the south of America, but it isn’t.
I could research that this is a special kind of thistle, called “Mariendistel”.
It is used to make a kind o medicine, never seen this before in the country, so I decided to take the pic in a lovely light.
Here it is...:)
Two cloudy pics for two different themes to get resources in our Hesse.
First you see the old “ Gradierwand “ in Bad Nauheim, it’s an old method to push salt into the air from a brine. Very healthy for persons with problems of lung. A realy large construction, and the spa town Bad Nauheim holds a few of these.
Second : The wind wheels of Germany grow up. Bigger and bigger and more. The reason is the change of energy in our country. More green energy of wind, less energy of oil and gas, to save our requirements of energy in the next decades. There a the highest types in the middle of Hesse.
Today I would like to give you an awesome overview of the area of palace Wilhelmshöhe.
It’s in the north to find, at the city of Kassel and a popular place for a one day trip.
Of course you also have to visit the famous “ Bergpark” the second pic is taken from there.
You will find it directly above the palace. The terrific view into the north of Hesse is for free :) .
The power of water plants!
Exactly the giant Victoria lily you can see.
The new home is the botanical garden of the Justus Liebig University of Giessen. The reopened and enhanced garden is waiting now for visitors and all kind of garden fans.
Awesome to see and chill or take pictures! It’s a pleasure and free :)
A spooky place of living history:
At this place in Frankfurt/M., german top terrorist - in the 70s - Andreas Baader was arrested after a gunfight.
The police, had a lot of trouble in the 70s and 80s with these guys.
Thank goodness! Over and done ! But the stories about their criminal missions can you book at the TI of the city Frankfurt. Walk in groups into the night and history of this city.
Exciting!
The return of the storks:
For me, it’s a wonder. I swear, in my childhood and during the time of 45 years these beauties were exterminated in Hesse. No chance to see our biggest birds, besides in the zoo.
Anybody told me about this group in the region I live in. I started the search.
Two weeks ago, as I was going to take pics of a field of Persian Poppy ...I I saw suddenly this group in a wonderful golden light at the evening.
I took the 800mm lens and had to lie in a field of fresh horse manure, from the farmer. Fu.. o.. I did catch this pic.
I was sooo lucky and I smelled sooooooo incredible bad...
...with the proof, the storks are back in Hesse after a very long time!!
In the middle of June, you will find a mélange of awesome flowers all over.
In this little village, called “ Oberkleen “ the oriental poppy is in dynamic interaction with the medieval church “ St. Michaelis “, in the background.
The air smells wonderful because of the blossoms, it is a party for mind and nose :) !
A symbol for love, for a very long time was this artwork, designed on a lost- place-house in the centre of Giessen, the city in the middle of Hesse.
Well known and everyone was doleful and sad when the time has come to demolish that building.
So the only thing that lives today is that pic and the symbol of love in german language: Liebe
The very most part of our great regions are covered with forests and fields.
Also you will find soft hills and green or yellow fields. With a little bit of luck you can see the panoramas from an old ruin of castle like me, here taken in the popular “ Gleiberger Land” region.
During a cloudy day you will have hundreds of awesome light atmospheres.
Brilliant to take pics from the middle of Hesse.
