Heather

As it is raining today and I'm not gonna take any shots outside, here is "Autumn Heather" - a photo taken by my friend Keczer :) Isn't it lovely? They began selling beautiful heather plants in supermarkets like Castorama or Praktiker, and this is one of them.
Keczer - thanks for the photos :) You have officially became the first contributor to my blog ever.

Details over the windows

Facade fragment of a building at Mikołowska Street. What a pity that the tenants "decorated" it with those satelite dishes...

A corner house

A corner house in the very centre of Katowice, close to the Main Square. Unfortunately, this is not a great shot, but if you want to have a closer look at the house --> go HERE, and look what I've found on Wikimedia Commons! A huge photo with a lot of details - worth seeing.
