[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is from one of the many old streets on Södermalm island in central Stockholm. The island used to be a working class district but is nowadays quite trendy with lots of attractive apartments in carefully restored old buildings.
This particular house is from the oddly named street Yttersta tvärgränd. The name is so strange that I can't even find a proper translation into English, but it means "an alley intersecting another street on the very outskirts of the city". In German it's easier: Äußerste Quergasse.
These days this is not at all the outskirts of the city, since Södermalm is one of the seven districts within the inner city limits of Stockholm.

Hallo Gert!
Nothing spectacular, nothing exciting, nothing colourful ... but a wonderful calm and somehow dignified atmosphere. an inventive and not everyday picture! Isn't German a perfect language ...?! ;-)
Greetings from sunny Germany!
