    It’s crazy how almost all the cities resemble each other now ... The greatest difference is still in their cathedral...
    Nice B/W street photography.
    CIAo!   cris

      ...that's right, Cris, in every city the same shops, the same fast-food chains...and we don't even have a cathedral - all churches in Wiesbaden are from the 19th or early 20th century....Ciao, grazie per il tuo commento! Baci.

      Apolozige Ansgar, sometimes I forget the complete destruction that Germany suffered in the Second World War almost everywhere ...
      Peace & LOve!

      ...no, Crissy, it's not for that reason...Wiesbaden as a city is rather new..it was only a bath with warm springs and so for the noble and rich people...but known by the romans. It has a long history but never was important, because the nobles had their palaces not here...the importance of this place started at the end of the 18th century, again because of the thermal bath, and so the city began to grow. We have four bigger churches here, but all from the 19th and early 20th century. And...Wiesbaden wasn't so much destroyed than other German cities in the last war, because the US-army wanted to build there their headquarters. And so they did. We had lots of American soldiers, officers here in great housing areas and a huge hospital. Wounded soldiers from the Gulf-War were brought to Wiesbaden...
      Now that's history...most of them are gone. After the war, in 1945, Wiesbaden became the capital of the new district Hessen, founded under the direction of the Americans and the first part of Germany with a new democratic constitution....
      So, that was a little excurs in history...sorry...
      Ciao, mia cara, buona giornata! Ansgar

    Ich mag solche Gegenlichtaufnahmen sehr gerne. Alle haben kleine Heiligenscheinchen und die langen Schatten machen es spannend.

    As always you have captured the moment, a moment that flees and never returns. I like it!

    An einer deutschen Fußgängerzone erkennt man nicht in welcher Stadt man sich befindet. Sie sind alle gleich, überall die gleichen Modeketten und Fastfoodketten. Eigenständigkeit und Vielfalt wurden systematisch ausgerottet. Eigentlich schade. LG Gerhard

      ...stimmt, Gerhard! Und das Mittel dazu sind die immensen Mieten in der Innenstadt: das können sich nur noch Ketten leisten...jeder kleine Laden, jeder Ansatz von Individualität wird im Keime erstickt....und wenn dann alles so gleich gemacht und verödet ist, stellt man sog. "City-Manager" ein (natürlich für ein ansehnliches Gehalt..), die's dann irgendwie wieder richten sollen....alles Kappes! Liebe Grüße, Ansgar
