Here's my #mountainMonday from the weekend. It's been a nice hike up there.
I almost didn't make it out but finally went to the mountains.
By the time I came there I was really happy that several peoplpe went this trail before. Otherwise ... I'm not sure if I would have gone there without snowshoes to be honest.
Next time, I might really bring snowshoes. …

A picturesque winter scene unfolds in this serene mountain setting. A quaint wooden cabin, with its white walls and rustic charm, sits nestled on a snow-covered slope. The cabin is surrounded by a peaceful blanket of snow, with patches of grass peeking through in places, hinting at the transition between seasons.

Tall evergreen trees frame the cabin, their branches heavy with snow, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. The trees create a natural border, enhancing the sense of seclusion and tranqui…

Finding a crate of ancient but precious CD-R and DVD-R's is like finding a chest of scrolls in the basement of a temple that burned down. There's a welcome prize, but many frustratingly missing fragments.
Back in 1994 when asked about the (very popular) bank of Compaq gaming machines packed with latest CDROMs being a core of the Information Highway exhibit at the Ontario Science Centre (god rest its soul), I would explain that the CDROM was a proxy for the bandwidth that was to come.
I think I got that more right than I knew: the CD-R/DVD-R is a TRANSPORT media, and certainly absolutely NOT a STORAGE media. It's charm is transport over very very very slow baud rates of perhaps 4GB/20 years. 😅

Bronze amulet of a winged phallus with two testicles and spread wings. A little loop between the wings enabled the owner to wear it on a necklace or fasten it to clothes or other items. A winged phallus is a good luck charm that protects the wearer from evil magic. Good luck for 2026!

Gemini Nano Banana Pro is a remarkable technical achievement that gives you a sense of what a remastered game might look like. Granted, the original game/graphics have their charm as well.
Still wouldn't use it in a final output, but for conceptualization, it is fascinating.
Here is an example for Shenmue.

My #silentsunday contribution is not mountains this time.
This is a memory to our visit to #scotland. Kylemore Abbey to be precise. We have this photo printed on the wall. And to me it's indeed "silence" that I feel with this photo

A tranquil and picturesque scene unfolds in this serene natural setting. Two wooden boats rest peacefully on the calm surface of a shallow, reflective pond. The boats, with their classic design and striped patterns, add a touch of rustic charm to the scene. Their reflections shimmer gently in the still water, creating a mirror-like effect.

The pond is nestled amidst lush greenery, with tall grasses and reeds swaying gently at the water's edge. In the background, a dense thicket of trees and sh…

For #FootpathFriday I chose this one.
It's been a nice walk around this hill with the little church on top.
I'm missing this right now. White snow would be nice, or green grass. Yet we are currently stuck in the season in between.
But for such cases, we have photos. Photos to revive memories, to make us smile, to make us dream. Dream of the experience.
This …

A peaceful countryside scene unfolds in this idyllic landscape, where a lush green meadow stretches out beneath a soft, overcast sky. The meadow, dotted with wildflowers and framed by a rustic wooden fence, gently slopes upward toward a cluster of tall, leafy trees. Their vibrant green foliage stands out against the muted tones of the sky, creating a sense of harmony and tranquility.

Nestled among the trees is a quaint, small building with a red-tiled roof, adding a touch of rustic charm to th…

#goodmorning #morningwalk #sheep

A peaceful winter scene unfolds in a rural setting, where a light dusting of snow covers the ground, creating a serene and picturesque atmosphere. Two sheep, their woolly coats providing warmth against the cold, stand near a rustic wooden barn. The barn, with its weathered wooden planks and a roof lightly covered in snow, exudes a sense of timeless charm and simplicity.

Stacks of chopped firewood are neatly arranged against the barn wall, ready to provide warmth and comfort during the chilly w…

For several reasons I didn't do mountains this weekend. But I enjoyed a nice cozy loop in the vicinity to the #kirchsee.
At this spot I made a quick stop and thought: #silentsunday! Not even wind. Just a lake, view, mountains in the distance and me and my bike.
