History and Today

I have so may photos of historic monuments and old buildings, but I decided that for this prompt I would post a photo of an interesting and sad story. I seem to collect photos of blue plaques, mostly because they provide me with some historical context for the area I am photographing at the time, but this one I photographed for itself. It is the first and only time I have seen a blue plaque in two languages.



And just as an alternative, this little plaque is set into the pavement (sidewalk) in the city centre. Once you notice one, you see them elsewhere, too. One day I am going to walk around the city centre and see how many I can find.



Today is behind the cut.


Well, it was today when I took them. Yesterday now. I did intend to post when I got home, but... Things Happened. And that didn't. Good intentions, so I am going to cling to those and and claim that 'Today' is still valid.
This was the promise of spring I spotted the other day and went back to photograph yesterday morning.
