My wonderful friend Dominique over at 3C Style has tagged me in the Seven Days Photo Challenge!
Thanks so much, Dominique – I just love taking pictures! 🙂
The rules are:
Seven days. Seven black and white photos of your life. No people. No explanations. Challenge someone new each day.
Because of my love for Sepia, I can´t promise to only share B/W pics but since it´s monochrome either way, I hope you won´t mind. 😉 And I might even add the color version of some shots – I know: what a rebel, eh? 😂
And instead of challenging someone new each day, I want all of you who are interested in this challenge to take it up and join us having fun!

The b&w is perfect for this–and the angle. It enhances his power. Lovely.

Hi dear Sarah,
Interesting choices of the photographs last week; love them all! I think the challenge with regard to ‘trees’ is my favorite.
Sending you a big hug again and wishing you a wonderful week ahead.

What a cool sculpture. Is that near your home? I love the way the shield is raised to the real sun. Beautiful shot. 🙂

Thank you, Diana! You’re the first to notice that he’s shielding against the sun which is why I went at that exact hour to make the shot! It’s in the same city but about a 45 min ride from my home but worth it every time. 😄

Thank you! He’s really nice to look at, isn’t he? 😉 He and his counterpart guard the gateway to the Charlottenburger Schloss- a castle or chateau in the west of Berlin that attracts many visitors. There’s also a beautiful park behind it where I often go. 😊

He is rather a tasty treat, Sarah. I don’t know any men who would be prepared to wield their weaponry stark naked, sadly 😉 xxxxxxxxxx

It’s funny indeed that people don’t seem to mind seeing a naked woman but are uneasy when it’s a man. That always puzzles me. Bonne journée à toi aussi Sarah!

Most of the women I know would say that naked women are far nicer to look at that men. I agree!

That depends on the man in question. 😉 But usualle when it comes to the arts and I mostly mean paintings the ones who ordered the paintings were men so their choice od object was quite predictable. 😉 Which is why people nowadays seem to be more easy around art that depicts naked women then men – it’s just what they’re more used to.

Understandable. Unrealistic ideals of male beauty were around long before the media started doing it to women it seems! Back to the gym tomorrow….
