STARK CONTRAST – LANDSCAPES
Current Reality vs Wishful Thinking:
“STARK” IN GERMAN MEANS “STRONG”,
and who’s stronger than Iron Man?
Plus, his alter ego is named “Tony Stark“:

I like that Ich Ich – there’s a few singers I like that constantly seem to tour Germany. And Alle Farben is one of my fav Djs…so while I have very limited German, I feel quite connected as it’s always popping up on my Insta. (Also Cathy, if you see this, I can’t comment on your post – I LOVED the Andrew Sisters growing up, so that was quite fun for me!) #MondayMusicMovesMe
I’m glad you enjoyed the post, Lydia! 🙂 Interesting that you have a German connection. Thanks for visiting today.
You have a variety of stark images Debbie and I like how you presented the seasons and the sunrises especially – what a contrast between the two. I like the stark contrast between the Christmas lights as well. How fun that you were able to use the German word stark in this post as well. I do not know of Tony Stark though.
Yes, I wanted to do something different and get away from the bleakness of winter. 🙂 Glad you enjoyed the presentation, Linda! Tony Stark is a comic book character. I was never into Marvel comics as a kid, but I did like the Iron Man movies (and the music).
What an interesting way to present your images. Lovely
Thank you, Carol! 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed the post. The creative muse is functioning well today.
Nicely done, Debbie, even incorporating some German music. While in the ’80s and ’90s, I frequently listened to Deutsch Rock and Deutsch Pop, nowadays, I’m generally not up to speed on the German (language) music scene.
Thanks, Christian! 🙂 (You were stuck in moderation again. 😆) I don’t normally listen to much German music these days either, and those songs are new discoveries. Not bad, eh? German rock band Scorpions is a favourite, as well as Steppenwolf, whose two founding members, John Kay (Joachim Krauledadt) and Nick St. Nicholas (Klaus Karl Kassbaum) are German.
Yes to both, Steppenwolf and Scorpions. 🙂
I also like a number of German-singing acts like BAP, Westernhagen, Wolf Maahn, Udo Lindenberg and Herbert Groenemeyer and listened to them a lot during my teenage years and ’20s while still living in Germany. 🙂
Great comparisons to highlight the challenge word, Debbie. I enjoyed the photos a lot.
Best wishes, Pete.
Glad you enjoyed the post, Pete! 🙂 And I knew you wouldn’t be at all interested in the Iron Man song by Black Sabbath. 😉
You hit all the meanings of stark in fun and clever ways, Debbie! I knew stark means strong in German. Makes sense for Tony Stark. 🙂 Love the stark contrast from winter to spring–seems like our worlds are the same here! I love that Toronto sunrise! Thanks, my friend, for sharing for Sunday Stills and have a wonderful week!
I was intrigued by the coincidence of Tony Stark’s name and went on a research dive. Found this: 😆

Yes, winter is hanging on here, but it’s supposed to get milder this week. 🤞 Glad you enjoyed the photos. That sunrise shot is one of my favourites too. 🙂 Thanks, Terri!
