A German couple decorates their garden tree with 10,000 painted eggs. Easter comes but once a year, but one couple have turned it into a lifetime project.
German retirees Volker and Christa Kraft have decorated the tree in their back garden in Saalfeld for Easter for more than 40 years.
The tree now drips with more than 9,800 colourful Easter eggs, painted with pastoral scenes and religious icons.
Volker Kraft adds to the 9,800 Easter eggs hanging from the tree in the garden of the home he shares with his wife Christa.
Each egg must be painstakingly emptied of yolk and whites to ensure it will not go bad before they can be hand-painted and hung out for all to see.
