Description Pictured is the Vils river, which runs through the Bavarian town of Vilseck, in the southeast part of Germany. Vilseck is rather small, and the city center, with its shops and restaurants, is a short walk from all corners of the town. I took this picture one Sunday while on my way from my house to the city center in order to meet some friends and to enjoy a couple of beers.
Here's a quick German lesson for you. The Vils is the name of the river. The German word 'ecke' is the english word 'corner.' Take away the second 'e,' and you've got a town name that means 'corner of the Vils.' That makes sense, because the river takes a sharp turn in the middle of the town, not far from the bahnhof (German for 'station'; in this case, a train station).
Have a great day. If you've decided to buy a print or framed version of this photograph, thanks!
