My bike in front of a very chic shop in an unusually tatty building, Emmendingen, south Germany.

Amongst other things, this is the local agent for "SMEG" kitchenware, purveyors of remarkably large pink toasters:

Former CDR-JC narrow gauge locomotive called the Meenglass. Dates from 1903 IIRC.

oooooh, so close to perfect framing and timing! Have to dock you a mark for not having the sun quite lined up.

(Just needs to be a tad to the right - maybe wait another 10mins next time? )

"Framing" what's that? My photography skills are such that I am happy to get the bicycle and the lighthouse in the picture, anything else is a bonus ;)

Now that I have seen them close to I am not sure whether they are as bulky and obvious as I expected. It is difficult to judge without putting a nearby 400m kV lattice line to compare; but I still suspect that what is probably a monocoque assembled off site is the reason for the haul roads stretching right across the county.
