Keeping up with four kids on a day out - that's tough! It is Joop Zoetemelk thinking about a return to the Tour de France as the easier option

Your photographs are clean, concise, and without 'flair'. In addition, your borders add considerably to the positive visual and interpretive experience. When can I fly to Germany for first class photography lessons? - David Lyga

@David Lyga This is more commendation than ever expected - You always are welcome in Germany.
What does 'without flair' means? Englisch is not my first language and often deficient ...

'Without flair' means without extraneous, unimportant things that seem to add to the effectiveness, but really are just meaningless appearances.

I speak the truth and would not say these things unless I meant them. - David Lyga

In the way David has defined "flair" I would say that Verzierung might be closer to David's definition of flair. It may be that U.K English and U.S. English are different here. I would define flair as being closer to Begabung. In other words, flair is a good thing to have. It means talent or aptitude for something
