Zeppelin and Platinum Blonde [Holga]
(click in the image to see a larger version)
In August, 2005 we vacationed for two weeks on the Lake of Constance in southern Germany and stayed near the town of Friedrichshafen, which is where the Zeppelin was first developed in the first part of the last century (by the German count of the same name). Today, the modern version of the zeppelin still makes regular flights over the lake. In the U.S. this is referred to as a blimp but in German it is still called a zeppelin. I much prefer the latter term, or airship, both which I find to be more poetic than blimp (which is not poetic at all).
Last September I posted another image taken at this same location that also has the zeppelin soaring above the lake.
