Hello again
I'm forever lagging behind with my photos -- life just passes too quickly. Ah well, ... -- spring is definitely in the air here, after a day or so of rain. Of course the first night with overcast sky had to co-incide with the complete lunar eclipse that would otherwise have been visible here. Bummer!

Here are some impressions from spending a moment recently watching and listening to a group of four Mongolian musicians. I was especially fascinated by their instruments.Ubiquitous trainers and jeans contrast with baroque (traditional?) floral patterns.
I had listened to music from Mongolia only the night before and was fascinated with descriptions of instruments just like these. Serendipitous coincidence!

And here, a sunset captured a few days later from the top end of the Kornhausbrücke. Cheerio!
