Blog EntryPicture Perfect: SafeApr 25, '08 3:13 AM
for everyone
Cherie, the host of this week PPF has chosen Safe as the theme. Interesting, right? At first I wanted to go around Bremen to hunt for something that can represent it. But too bad, the weather today is bad, no sun and the wind velocity is high. Better to stay at home, safe and sound :)

I always lose my mood when it's cold. It happened during my week-end trip to Berlin. It was cold and snow. It's supposed to be spring, but it's snow! My mood to take picture drop to zero. But since I had to suffer 6 hours to go to Berlin, I pushed myself to take some. You can see them in my album Berlin: Loosing My Mood

This is a traffic light that you can find only in former German Democratic Republic (GDR - East Germany) area. It called Ampelmännchen (little traffic light man). It looks cool for me, that's why I captured it. When the green Ampelmänchen is on, it means we are safe to cross the street.

Excellent and original take on the theme safe!. In this country though you are not safe to walk when the green man is flashing!
Lovely photo. Thank you for stopping by and visiting my pp contribution this week! :-)
suzyqt73 wrote on Apr 25
AWESOME, I have never heard of this. I love how the stop light pops off the background. The contrast of the black light and hazy background suits this photo well. I always look forward to seeing your pic for the week.

An interesting take on this theme. If we respect the traffic lights, we contribute to everyone's safety.

Great picture. We don't have such things here in my area. It is nice that we are adapting our world to the those who may be color blind, deaf, and such!

Cute entry, Sefa...I'm glad you thought about taking photos because I'm similar in that snow has a way of changing my mood...especially if I have to drive in it. Probably a good reason why I love living in California. If I want snow, I can always visit the mountains during the winter.

If you have a moment, please stop by: Romy's SAFE haven for a peek... and thank you in advance.

How very interesting. I have never seen anything like that (well, the american versions), but that one is very unique. I like it and you captured the picture so beautifully. Thanks for stopping by mine. I wanted to let you know that the kids had a blast at the zoo with you. You must have tired them out, they slept all the way home. They are however ready to go again anytime you are ready to tackle the task... LOL... Have a great weekend, Hugs, lilangelwolf

One of the first things I was taught as a child...how to cross the street safely....now I don't let my grandkids walk anywhere...I don't feel they are safe out alone in the world today.
