    Luminosos colores. Me gusta la composición y como la curva dirige la mirada.

    This likes the bike paths that are beginning to wind their way around out cities.

    Thanks for the comments.

    Ángel: Gracias, así lo traté de componer.

    frankdejol, Joan Elizabeth: Yes, just around the corner is the Saar with an extremely popular cycle route along the old tow path (Saar cycling route)

    photo ex machina: Thanks.

    joo: I know the photos were from the archive, but at least they must have served to jog your memory.

LOL It's true!

    No wonder everything is so green. Yesterday I watched all the rain coming from Saarbrücken to Mainz on the regenradar ... pfft.
    ;-)

    Radka: Děkuji.

    Cezar and Léia: I should point out that this is not really a cycle path. I think that it is mainly intended for motorised vehicles to get to the lock and the moorings just around the corner. However, the cycle path proper starts at this lock (2010-04-25). The tow paths along the Saar and the Mosel are very popular with family cyclists. They are totally flat, have no cars and pass through some really picturesque scenery.

    If you are not up to the curves with the bike, another popular activity along the tarmacked sections of these tow paths is inline skating.

    Martina: I am not that up-to-date with picture posting: this scene is from before the rain.
