Corny's picture whoring thread

[Corny]

^ I have already .. but at that time the thread was spammed by one poster with like 20 pic/day so they quickly vanished.



Now some pics from a very nice day and walk at the lakes in May:

Of course some beer was in the backpack:

Rowers

and sailors

not so lucky sailors ... oooooooops ...

A very cute guy training his rescue dog. Later got to talk a bit with him, nice guy and awesome dog!

But Corny, where are you in the pics?

 

[Corny]

Curious tortoise has a look at the Axolotl whose tank is being cleaned.

 

[TheOscar]

Wow, nice pictures, Corny. I like the "turtle" one. XD

[Corny]

^ a tortoise is about as scary as a sloth.

the Axolotl on the other hand will bite your finger pretty much as soon as you reach into the tank. But his tiny teeth can't hurt you

 

[freefall]

^Then you should consider raising piranhas

Some pictures from the Rheinkirmes, one of the biggest carnivals here and everywhere. It has more visitors per day than the Oktoberfest

Here is an overview:

But that was at night already, let's start earlier.

The attractions are a mix of new and modern rides such as the Konga a kind of spinning swingboat

but also classic rides like the "Selbstfahrer" a historic bumper car ride!

Noticed something? Yep .. that's the pride flag there. But this wasn't the only place where it was to be seen:

You probably wouldn't expect them at a carnival but there are everywhere there. The carnival is open for a week - and every year the Monday of that week is like a little pride parade. Well not that little, over 50,000 gays and lesbian meet there. But they are not alone, they just blend in with the rest of the crowd. However the carnies are fully aware of that pink monday, they raise the flags, they make special offers, the beer tents open longer and make room for a dance floor for some after carnival party

The guy who controlled the Circus Circus (pic below) and also made the announcements even was flirting with the customers "Hey hot guy on the left! If you're here for pink monday, maybe you should come to my booth after the ride!"

It seems interesting

And the first picture is amazing

I like the night pic. Love the flashing lights lights lights lights

then you will love some of these. Later that day:

Olympia Looping, now the biggest movable inversion rollercoaster.

aaand .. at night:

a giant slide

every carnival needs a ferris wheel:

and while I do like the wildest rollercoasters etc .. I don't really like power towers. I go on them .. but meh

View over the river rhine towards the old town. There is a ferry there bringing you right from the pubs to the carnival and vice versa

And another pride flag, in an equally colorful environment

Wish I were there. Two friends from Perth are leaving for Germany tomorrow. The photo's are beautiful, as always, and give me a really nice, warm feeling. Have a great Autumn!

At the end of this "summer" we went to the small cottage in the Black Forest again. When we arrived, it was a very foggy day ..

So we spent most of the day indoor. I woke up pretty early the next day to witness another misty morning :-/

during sunrise I had a short walk through the woods and found this nice, but probably poisonous, mushroom:

and another even weirder one:

and in a small clearing, a single campaluna. spot the bug
