Yellow Balloon on Blue Door (obviously...), Dublin, 2007reflection

An another one from the con­trast depart­ment.

At the time I was on my way into town to meet someone, and didn’t plan on tak­ing my cam­era along, but then I thought, what the heck, take it any­way. I was still kind of new to Dub­lin, and being the anxious Ger­man I am I hoped off the bus about 3 stops too early. Since I had plenty of time (again being a good Ger­man…) /​to “pun­ish” myself /​to bet­ter get to know the city I decided to walk the rest of the way — and was promptly rewar­ded: For no appar­ent reason, there was a scream­ing yel­low bal­loon tied to a scream­ing blue door, which gave, thanks to the sun, a beau­ti­ful strong con­trast.

Apart from that there is not much to say I guess, except I was glad that I did take my cam­era. So here’s the les­son to be learnt: Always have your cam­era with you, and hop off the bus waaaaaay too early ;-)

PS: I got my first photo-​blog-​comment today, yaaay! Thanks Clara!
