Changing of the guard in Prague Castle. Quite an easy capture even with the Tamron 17-50mm lens.

Spring!


Flower bud

Flower buds like these were aplenty all around the streets of Munich signifying the arrival of spring. A fresh renewal of a cold season with brighter days ahead...

Bicycle power

A much encouraged mode of transportation in Munich and most of Europe, I'd think. There are dedicated bicycle lanes alongside the pedestrians. Green power to lessen the energy needs perhaps.

Achtung baby!


Autobahn

And here we are....touchdown Munich! Start of a 10-day tour of eastern Europe which will cover Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria & back to Germany.

Our taxi was rolling on to the hotel at 120kmh but on the slower lane. Seconds later, an Audi whizzed past at 180kmh. The Ethiopian taxi driver welcomed us to the autobahn.....where the speed is limited to the power of your car.....

A nice break...


Tea break

Took a deserved break from the fashion photoshoot and chilled out at Delicious Cafe which also retails clothes from Ms Read. On a hot day, the frosty lemon tea sure tastes good! The cafe has a really good turnout throughout the day especially on weekends.
