This is Ludwigskirche, which is also called the Universitätskirche, here in Munich. Apparently, the English name is Catholic Parish and University Church St. Louis – that’s a mouthful, isn’t it?

Have recently been inspired by Stefan Salinas‘ book Catholic Churches Big and Small, and I realised I could easily take photos of dozens of churches that are in stumbling distance of where I live.

So, periodically I’ll be sharing some of these. This is certainly a good start.

 

 

A break in the mundane for a bit of Bon vivantery

The Lenbach House in Munich’s Maxvorstadt neighbourhood. Training for my new job has taken much of my time & nearly all of my energy, so the first thing that’s taken a backseat was blogging. Was recently alerted that this incarnation of my blogging is exactly two years old. Too bad I’ve not prepared anything more… Continue reading A break in the mundane for a bit of Bon vivantery

Nevertheless, I was going through photos of Seville recently and  was reminded of the above moment when I escaped the burning sunlight. If you’re wondering whether this place was as peaceful as it looks, the answer is yes. My… Continue reading slowed to a crawl

and so it begins

The Filmfest in Munich officially started last night, but the first day of screenings for regular folk is here. The day is upon us. As much as I enjoy living here, I really miss independent film. This is the only week of the year one can catch work by obscure film makers. Not all of… Continue reading and so it begins

not a Berliner

Lately, there’s been plenty for me write about, and I just haven’t been doing it. The last several posts were photos that I certainly liked, but there wasn’t much text.
