    Im antiken Olympia gab es jedenfalls noch kein Samsung, blühende Magnolien hingegen sind überall und zu allen Zeiten was Schönes....
    Liebe Grüße, Ernst

    Deine Gegenüberstellung finde ich hochinteressant. Sozusagen ein optischer Sprung über Jahrtausende. Faszinierend Adele.

    the ancient ones were in the honor of zeus. today's are in the honor of… mammon and digital technology! or so it seems… ; ) i wonder what billboard the venerable walls of your attached olympia may have held when the ancient olympics were on? the greek were amazing innovators, inventors, scientists! so maybe analog computers, if ever so cumbersome, were THE crowd-pleaser of the time! in fact, the billboard might have said: "antikythera* – get it and fathom the stars!" ; )) no laptop material, though, i'm afraid – ouch! thighs smushed… ; )) hugs, sabine. p.s.: pink magnolias – my favorite kind!

    Ganz grosse Klasse ist dein Foto:
    Die schöne Natur im Vordergrund
    und die mordene Welt im Hintergrund.
    Eine frohe Zeit wünsche ich dir, Mannus.
