Low water on the river Rhine

Today is a #BeautifulSunday by @Ace108 while @c0ff33a thinks it's a #sublimeSunday , and we went for a drive to get some cheap patrol in Germany , in Germany we pay € 1.58 per liter, in my own country here in Holland the cheapest in my area was € 1.99 a liter so on a full tank +/- 45 liters that saves me € 16.-

On our way back we stopped in a village called Tollkamer in Holland to see how low the water in the river Rhine is at the moment.

And instead of bringing the ultra macro lens i digged up an old friend the Jupiter 8 lens.

On the side of the parking lot they had these big containers filled with geraniums

Looking at the river Rhine you can see the boats floating very high with hardly any cargo at all , all this because of the draught we have this year.

Looking at the small tanker i wonder how much they would pay per liter fuel

You can see the container ship is loaded with only a couple of containers , where it under normal surcomstances would be completly filled with containers, but because of the shallow water they can't load that much anymore right now.

And finally geranium containers with Jupiter bokeh :)

All imges created by me with my Sony A7II + Jupiter-8 80mm

And now back home trying to survive the last day of this crazy heatwave 🌞🌞🍺🍺
Enjoy your Sunday and stay cool

The drought is really painful for everyone this year! You can see it better when you look at the evidence provided.

I can say that we are now having the opposite. Too much water.

I used to drive from Germany to Belgium and Holland for different things. It was a short and sweet ride that we loved. I miss those days.

The geraniums are killer. They must do something special to them over there, I could never get mine over here to do the same as when I lived there. I know! It's in the water!
