Fabulous! Love the lighting – as you say, would probably have lost some of its intensity if it had been a brighter day. Sounds like another really fun outing :)
I’m fairly sure that’s Otto Lilienthal’s Doppeldecker or double decker. And no, no air plane geek, but we learnt about him in primary school because he was somewhat of a local where I grew up in Germany x
The colours, light and shadows are all lovely. I would have asked where it was taken but you’ve answered that in other comments. My kids love science museums, Munich is one to remember if we’re ever there.
Thank you! It was taken at the quite brilliant Deutsches Museum in Munich yesterday, on such a dark and dreary day. I think that helped with the light though! :D

Is that one of Leonardo Da Vincis inventions? I think I remember seeing sketches similar to it in Rome.

Do you know I am not sure? I was too busy taking a picture of it and forgot to read the sign! It’s lovely though isn’t it? Thank you…
