At Schildergasse

Here is another street musician but this one,his market is only for kids.As you can see,this cute girl was his customer but his idea is to make interactive with his customer instead of only drop a coin and walk away.The song he plays attracted the adult as well caused it reminds and brings back again to their childhood or to their own kids who already fly out from the nets (adults) and of course for the grandparents of their grandchildren who may have not seen for quite some time.

Jumping Stilts

Finally,I had my camera with me when I saw this Poweriser. But I wonder how is feel like being on it? Would I have my balance still? I've never try before :o) from my past life till now :o) This guy was tried to climb up the stairs behind him instead of straight up jumping on and he was very cooperate with me and my tiny Digi Camera. This was behind 'Der Dom' (The Cathedral). Here some information from Wiki about jumping Stilts or more famous and familiar as Poweriser.

SALE session

This is what it looks like in the end if someone held a huge party :o) Kidding! Spring is still in the air and summer in front of the door,the birds built their nest and the human change their sofa :o) I don't know how I came up with this weird poem ;o) but anyway,this sofa is not for sale and I didn't take this photo in Flea market either but this is what we do in here when you want to change your old furniture.There will be a special Garbage man who will collect an old stuff and you just need to put off the street if you already knew their schedule or you can call them to collect your big garbage but it's not allow to litter this kind of garbage in an ordinary garbage box and it goes same for electronic garbage. How your handle a big rubbish in your country?

Cologne by night

Still the only one night scene that I captured so far with my Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T7. I like this photo and hope you all do like too ;o) We were in our evening walks down town.We like sometimes to make window shopping in a quiet evening like this one after dinner at home or when we dinning out. This is one of Cologne's shopping street and only for pedestrian and not the one I've posted with the street musician. How about your evening?

Suburbia

One of an ordinary street in down town Cologne.Left and right buildings are the common apartment style and at the ground floors are some boutiques as well as cafe,shops and supermarket.In the far down is the sky scraper called "Köln Turm" (Cologne Tower) which located in the north of Cologne's new city in the area named "Media Park". It is 165,48 m high with 43 floors. As far as I knew Köln Turm is not open for public to view the city from its plat form like in Köln Triangle.

Do you have also in your country this kind of fun & crazy moment before you say good bye to your single life? watch out what she draw... ;-)

Street life

Another faces of a BIG city life.This is one of (i've not count yet) Cologne's shopping street.Only on Sunday and national holiday is a bit quiet (not always) caused boutiques and shops are close and the public park will be crowded or somewhere more interesting places of Cologne.
