Hello Henning,
thanks for taking a look, some stuff taken in and around the town is in the 
works - even some shots 
of a unique steam powered bus named Elizabeth, and some quite astounding 
shots  (to me at least) of 
heavy weather brewing over the bay.
I hope to manage to get some posted over the weekend.
best from Hannover
Douglas
