#FotoVorschlag: Der Blick von oben // The view from above

Der Blick von der #Basteiaussicht auf die Gemeinde Rathen und die #Elbe. Der Tafelberg rechts am Horizont müsste der berühmte Lilienstein sein.

The view from the #Bastei rock formation lookout, overlooking the village of #Rathen and the River Elbe. If I'm not mistaken, the table mountain on the right is the famous #Lilienstein.

Break a leg for #FootpathFriday the 13th 🤞

I met three British tourists at this spot, trying to navigate this part of the #trail in jeans and trainers. They were debating whether to turn around and take the bus instead. I told them it's a beautiful route, but there are plenty of sections just as slippery as this one. The fittest of them took a tumble, and after seeing that, the others decided to slide down the steps on their bums instead. I didn't stick around to see if they turned back, as I was heading toward the #Bastei rock formation in the opposite direction. Either way, climbing back up those steps would have been quite the challenge. 😅

A small #waterfall on hold for #WaterfallWednesday

Can you spot the spooky face in the top-right rock, smirking down at the #icicles? 😳

#Drawing #Pencildrawing #Graphitepencildrawing #Studypage All of these animals were stuffed by a taxidermist. They represent species that are fairly commom in the area in which I live. That is why I liked drawing them. They were on display at a museum in #Nijmegen, a nearby city that we visited yesterday. #Bastei.
#Otter, #Cormorant, #Owl, #Woodpecker, #Pike, #Fox
The paper started buckling because of the hairspray I used as a fixative for the drawing. I do not mind that much.

Museum De #Bastei in #Nijmegen heeft dit jaar een recordjaar met ruim 56.000 bezoekers. Reden is de tentoonstelling die eind oktober eindigde met #Romeinse Waalschatten, #archeologische vondsten uit de regio. Ook om andere redenen is het museum een aanrader, omdat er resten van Romeinse #verdedigingsmuren te zien zijn die bij de #Limes horen.
