Behold, The Imposing Frieder (2053m).
(Picture from yesterday, confirming that spring is not quite evenly distributed just yet...)
#MountainMonday #LandscapePhotography #Alps

Photo of the imposing north face of a large pyramidal mountain peak, still mostly snow covered even down into the valley. The late afternoon sun is faintly highlighting some of the cracks and ridges in the snow. The silhouettes of some spruces in the foreground. Overcast gray wintry sky.

6.7km leisurely river walk in the valley last Friday. Great views throughout but seeing this mare with braids was special. She even walked up to us to show her best side. 🐴 😍
And the bridge with googly eyes. πŸ‘€

Magic Moment (when the view finally opens up)
(On the way to Drachensee, October 2023)
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography #Alps

View of a beautiful high alpine valley with the lower parts covered in larch forest, the trees in beautiful autumn colors, higher up patches of dried grass and mountain dwarf pines among talus fields and steep large rocky peaks. Clear azure hazy sky. The silhouettes of some tree branches in the foreground are framing the scene left/right.

Nearly 20 years visiting this town and I keep finding new (to me) beautiful things. Each day of each visit. 🏠 ⛰️ ☺️

First weekend of spring, but dreaming of autumn...
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography

A mountain lake with deep green water in front of a steep talus slope and vertical rock face going up hundreds of meters directly behind. The lower parts near the lake are covered in dense bushes of dwarf mountain pines and some larches, all faintly reflected on the lake surface. The beautiful sunny day brings out the autumn colors with some of the larches in bright orange. Semi-overcast blue sky.

Was 7⁰C in the valley this morning. Cold enough up in the mountains to get a bit of new snow, from what my eyes and camera could see. πŸ”οΈ

Panoramas. They all look the same but they aren't. And no picture can truly capture what the eyes actually see. πŸ”οΈ

8:45am: Late enough in the day for white light but still early enough for soft play of light and shadow.
This church is on the same hill where I found the campanula I posted a couple of days ago.

I go to an Alpine valley to escape heat and this is what I get? In May? 😠 πŸ₯΅

Some more pictures from my Wednesday river walk, which is when I learned beekeepers have their own patron saint. πŸ˜‡
Also, that last picture, how lucky are the kids who can say they have that for their "neighborhood playground". <jealous>

Wednesday, I got bold/foolish and did a **17.4km** river walk, while *fasting*. Very little elevation change, but the longer distance and time, plus fasting, gave me a sense of progress.
Sharing some pictures now; more later πŸ‘‡.

6.5kms morning walk today. Still 40% slower than normal but the goal was to increase distance while reducing discomfort, which I did by focusing on just walking; not looking around (which causes discomfort).
Got some nice pictures though. Same mountains and valleys as the last few days but in new settings and with some new elements.
