I took this photo on a nice summer evening only a five minute walk away from our house in Kelberg, Germany, down our lane. I didn´t manipulate the colours in any way. I think it´s very peaceful and relaxing. Just looking at the image evokes the sensations of the cool summer evenings here in the Eifel region of Germany. / Klaus Taken with my Pentax k10d / Challenge Winner in the challenge Blue Hour in the group Gorgeous Germany on October 25th 2009!!! Thank you to all who voted for our image!!!

The Victory Column (Berliner Siegessäule) is a famous monument in Berlin, Germany. Designed by Heinrich Strack after 1864 to commemorate the Prussian victory in the Danish-Prussian War, by the time it was inaugurated on 2 September 1873, Prussia had also defeated Austria in the Austro-Prussian War (1866) and France in the Franco-Prussian War (1870–71), giving the statue a new purpose. Different from the original plans, these later victories in the so-called unification wars inspired the addition of the bronze sculpture of Victoria, 8.3 meters high and weighing 35 tonnes, designed by Friedrich Drake. Berliners, with their fondness for giving nicknames to famous buildings, call the statue Goldelse, meaning something like “Golden Lizzy”. /
Near Detmold,Germany. / EOS 30D Herman the German (also Arminius, Armin , Hermann the Cheruscan or just plain Hermy Baby) was the first man with the imagination to wake up one day and say ’ I have a dream. I will call my hut ‘Germany’ and the people who live with me Germans. He eventually extended the idea somewhat but Herman is now credited by his modern day descendants with the concept of Germany. This was used by British bomber pilots during the war for target practice whilst on the return journey from raids over Berlin.

I have just returned from an architecture study trip to Berlin. I took this image whilst walking through the Mitte Kunstmarkt, an arts and crafts market on the historic Museum Island. Behind the glowing market stalls stand the reconstructed domes of the Berliner Dom Cathedral, and the iconic TV Tower. Being a clear November evening, it was bitterly cold! Berlin, Germany

Welcome to the Gorgeous Germany Group!
Work submitted here should be images of German landscapes, German cities, German architecture, German culture, German customs and celebrations.
Anything else, for example extreme close ups of any kind, animals, portraits, flowers, which are simply taken in Germany or by a German photographer but do not represent the country in any way, are not acceptable and will be removed without note.
Flowers and plants will be fine with this group if they are an element of a collage or they are not the main subject of the image and a lot of landscape around the plant is visible.
Please, if possible, add a short explanatory note to your image, e.g. where and / or why, who, what.
In order to give each entry the occasion to stay on the overview page for some time, WE HAVE A DAILY LIMIT OF 3 ENTRIES but no overall limit for the entries to the group.
Please don’t submit more than one photo from the same subject. One will be removed, unless they form a real complimentary set!
