Street photography – Basel (2)

A modernistic version of a spiral staircase, and a medieval church in the background. That church forms the backdrop of more pictures to come…

An evening along the Rhine – 8

For some reason the yellow lighting reminded me of Diwali, maybe partly because the owners of this particular establishment were Indian. They didn’t speak a word of Hindi though.

An evening along the Rhine – 5

Off to find another eating joint..

An evening along the Rhine – 1

This should be my last (but one!) major series on Basel. I’m trying to do it justice, but I dont think I will succeed in capturing the beauty and warmth of the evening.

And the sun had set….

I hope I am able to do justice to the pictures following this one, these I clicked with the most hope!

Stadtheller

One of the many warm, inviting places I would have loved to dine in. Made it into a few, others for another time maybe?

Marktplatz

An attempted 360 degree view of the lovely market square. Didn’t come out as well as I hoped, but gives some idea of the place.

Modeled…

A cast metal model of the Minster. I’m standing among the trees to the right of the replica. 🙂

The Blue Rhine….

The view from the rear of the minster, across the Rhine into Klein Basel.
