Hannover photo safari, introduction

I am hereby beginning a series of posts called Hannover Photo Safari (HPS).

Why did I choose this name? It sounds better than "a lot of pictures of statues and art work around town". But that's basically what it is. I went around Hannover on a cold day hunting for statues and public art works to photograph, with the goal of knowing what they are all about.

I also wanted to call it a safari so that it sounds more exotic, and tropical. It was a cold and snowy day when I went out there. I think my pinky froze to the camera. However, it was -5 Farenheit in St Paul earlier this week, so I am certainly not complaining. -5 Celsius is a lot better.

Brian reminded me as I debated whether I should go out walking around town on that chilly day, "you used to be a Minnesotan."
