I don't use Google Photos despite Google constantly asking me to. Perhaps I'll try it to see what they do with a panorama.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-80860682828253599732019-04-30T18:26:10.299+02:002019-04-30T18:26:10.299+02:00Most editing software can stitch panoramas.

Meanwhile, it's still rather difficult for our city to go ahead with other plans for the areas that may be involved if they do decide to add a new railway to the ones that already meet here, or double tracks where now there are just single ones, etc.<br /><br />About the tickets, there may well be ticket machines for some distances, and on some trains I think you pay aboard the train. There is also a travel info office, although not located in the old station house but in another building nearby. I suspect they only sell tickets for the regional traffic - but they can probably provide info about more. I just haven't had any reason to ask, lately! ;)DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-89254610091453357372019-04-30T11:07:36.448+02:002019-04-30T11:07:36.448+02:00Ginny, yes, the railway station is rather grand - ...Ginny, yes, the railway station is rather grand - from 1894, and now listed as a 'notable building' I think (i.e. to be protected as cultural heritage)DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-51811126398574063912019-04-30T10:54:32.282+02:002019-04-30T10:54:32.282+02:00Sandra, I don't think I have actively used Goo...Sandra, I don't think I have actively used Google Photos for any kind of editing myself... It keeps playing around with my (phone) photos all on its own and just sends me the results now and then (to accept or discard!) ... On the computer, I normally use Picasa (still the same as I first got used to when I started blogging). And for manual editing on the phone (for example to make collages for FB or Messenger), I use another simple editing app included in my album there.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-76925185024183253662019-04-30T08:20:03.782+02:002019-04-30T08:20:03.782+02:00Your town is the capital,of murals!

I am especially intrigued by the picture of the 'waiting' area and hope good decisions will be made about it.<br />In Germany, apart from buying tickets online, we still have manned ticket offices at the larger stations and ticket machines at smaller ones. Not absolutel everybody has internet access, and so the railway companies have to provide various ways for booking.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-58423934834326129352019-04-30T04:12:38.911+02:002019-04-30T04:12:38.911+02:00The railway station looks a bit like a castle!

It looks like a beautiful day and your flowers are gorgeous.
