I’m old enough to remember `-ms-high-contrast-adjust: none;` to remove the backplate that Edge added in 2016 (pre-Chromiedge).

forced-color-adjust: none is an unavoidable foot gun | Sarah Higley

Last photos from that day in the #schwarzwald . We were pretty surprised when we came to the part shown in the last photo. The #moss was so thick there - like a real carpet! I've never seen such before. I found it pretty hard to get a photo that pays the situation justice. I hope it works for …

Nestled deep within a lush, verdant forest, this narrow trail invites hikers into a world of tranquil solitude and natural beauty. The path, a winding ribbon of earthy brown, is gently bordered by moss-covered rocks and boulders, their vibrant green hues suggesting centuries of undisturbed growth. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy above, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow across the forest floor, where fallen leaves and pine needles create a soft, rustling carpet.
Moss blankets the forest floor and climbs up the sides of ancient trees, its vivid green hues contrasting beautifully with the darker bark and scattered brown leaves. Ferns, delicate and intricate, emerge from the undergrowth, their fronds swaying gently in the light forest breeze. A small, trickling stream crosses the path, its rocky bed glistening with moisture, adding a soothing soundtrack to the tranquil scene.

The moss, a rich emerald green, blankets the rocks and ground, creating a plush carpet that adds to the forest's serene ambiance. Towering trees, their trunks dark and sturdy, rise majestically on either side of the trail, their branches weav…

Good morning!
Here are some photos from the #Mummelsee in the #Schwarzwald . We wanted to visit it last year already but somehow just managed to go there this time.
The lake itself is scenic and beautiful. But definitely a "hot spot". Luckily we were there at a day/time w…

Nestled along the tranquil edge of a dark, glassy forest pool, a bronze statue of a mermaid rests gracefully upon a weathered rock. Her serene gaze drifts across the still water, which mirrors the surrounding lush greenery and tangled branches of the dense woodland. The mermaid’s shimmering tail, intricately detailed, drapes elegantly over the rock, blending artistry with nature’s quiet beauty. Sunlight filters softly through the canopy, casting dappled reflections on the water’s surface, enhan…
Framed by delicate pine needles, a charming lakeside lodge emerges—its rustic red roof and wooden balconies blending seamlessly with the surrounding forest. The multi-story building, with its warm brown tones and flower-adorned railings, exudes alpine coziness. Below, a calm lake mirrors the muted overcast sky, its surface undisturbed except for a few small ripples. The lodge’s lower level extends almost to the water’s edge, inviting guests to step outside and enjoy the tranquil setting. In the…

The path, constructed from rich, weathered planks, curves gently upward, disappearing into the dense foliage of towering conifers and moss-covered rocks. Sunlight filters softly through the canopy, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor and highlighting the vibrant green moss that clings to boulders and fallen logs.
Nestled beneath a brooding, overcast sky, this tranquil mountain lake exudes a quiet, reflective beauty. The water’s glassy surface mirrors the surrounding evergreen forest, their deep emerald hues blending seamlessly with the muted grays of the clouds above. On the far shore, a striking red building peeks through the trees, its bold color contrasting with the natural palette of greens and browns. The lake’s edge is lined with wild vegetation—tall grasses sway gently, while fallen logs and sca…
