The model of the Minkowski plane in the projective plane with a fixed conic sheds a new light on the connection between the Minkowski and hyperbolic geometries. The construction of the Minkowski plane in a hyperbolic plane over a Euclidean field is given. It is also proved that the geometry in an orthogonal bundle of circles is hyperbolic in a natural way.
