My cousin found this charming villa during our stay in Belgium. He told me about it and I wanted to see it, to shoot a few photos. It was a deserted place, but you had the feeling that still lurked around any souls. I've posted some photos more because it was just too impressive. So I close the alphabet project.

Wollseifen is a deserted village (in German: Wüstung) in the Eifel region. After the Second World War, the British forces had cleared the village to build a military training area, which in 1950 was handed over to the Belgians. From the former village only the church and the school building has been preserved. The buildings on the right in the picture were built for military exercises. Today Wollseifen is situated in the Eifel National Park and is once again open to visitors. some thoughts about this: -The processing in HDR shows hopefully how surreal it was to be there on a sunny saturday afternoon. - I´m sorry to Paradise who wanted to visit Wollseifen with me, but stays in the USA now (It HAS to be my picture for W...) - I like the nesting box in the upper window on the first building

This is a scanned photo from my Brazil vacation in 2004. In the triangle (Brazil-Argentina-Paraguay) near the Iquazu waterfalls we made a one day trip to Paraguay. It was so shockingly unlike the tidy Brazil. Today, I sure would make the screen layout differently. Nevertheless, I like the photo. Have a great week, friends!

Every day I drive past here. Every day I think that I need to take a picture. Yesterday I did it and edited it in HDR. I hope you like it.

a last day trip before holidays are over. visited a small ghost village in germany. blackberries knocking at the door.

Abandoned monastery somewhere in Germany. What stories could these walls tell us?

Built in 1866. Abandoned since 1991.

I like HDR images if they are not too extreme, and if the processing suited to the scene. I especially like HDR images of abandoned places, automobiles, machinery, street art and similar things. I have decided for today's Sunday Challenge for an older image, in which the HDR processing is very strong. I can understand that for someone this processing is too crass. It shows an old abandoned laundry near Bonn. Original is in the box.

Abandoned

What remains is a little bit of color.

In danger of collapsing. Eighteen months ago, the roof looked more stable ...
