So after taking Charm Scrappy with us on our winter walk, we have a full finish – including the photo shooting. Yeah!
No. 6 of my Finish Along List for Q1 is finished!
This kind of weather is rare here in Hamburg. Winters are normally around zero degrees and more gray. So having actual snow, not that aweful slush, and blue skies is awesome. So we bundled up and went for a walk. This time at the Moorburger Elbdeich close to the container terminal Altenwerder. So all the backdrops are container cranes, the big ship currently at the dock for unloading and the small signal towers to help guide ships through the harbour basins.
We mostly had oportunities to take full pictures. Not many options to drape a quilt out there. And the one we found was of course in a backlight situation. *shrug*
But we nonetheless had lot’s of fun!
“Can you please bend down a little? Otherwise the cranes and the Köhbrandbrücke are not in the picture.”
“Can you please correct my trail?”
And one from the official viewpoint.
As I also snapped a few indoor pictures for the pattern release: Here are my favorite three.
