The End Of A Long Summer (2023)
(A last blip of intense summer heat before the first wave of winter descended into the valley just a couple of days later. The colors that day were just magical and created an unforgettable mood, maybe also because it was one of the last long hikes we did with our darling dog...)
#FootpathFriday

Photo of a group of trees (sycamores, spruces) in a swampy grassy patch on a very hot and hazy October day in a remote valley with steep rocky walls. The leaves and grasses in their beautifuk autumn colors of yellows, oranges, reds and browns. The blades of rushes turning red and glistening in the bright sun. The hazy sky emphasizes the layers of mountains into the distance.

For #FootpathFriday, I wanted to share this path that I walked a while ago. I didn't meet anyone for a very long time, which is very uncommon, but really a good experience.
This was really a very cool day. I also made a video about that day:

a narrow wild footpath just wide enough for a bike, running through fresh green wild plants and bushes with a lake in view to the right

For #footpathFriday , I chose this photo from my recent blog post - and thus from my recent hike that I did. 🙂
Not the best photo I ever took, but I reminds me of a beatiful walk - even though my legs were tired right from the start. But going a bit slower fixed the issue.

This image captures a magical and serene forest scene bathed in the warm, golden light of either sunrise or sunset. The foreground features a narrow, winding trail that meanders through a dense woodland. The path is flanked by tall trees, their trunks and branches creating a natural tunnel that adds depth and a sense of mystery to the scene. The trees are a mix of deciduous and evergreen, with some branches bare and others adorned with sparse foliage, suggesting the transition of seasons. The …

#FootpathFriday

Path mown through a meadow stretches away directly ahead of the viewer, leading to a gap in a belt of trees and bushes. The sky is blue with scudding clouds. The meadow is dotted with yellow flowers.

B&W photo of a narrow high alpine path leading towards a mountain pass in the far distance. Steep slopes with some patches of dwarf mountain pine running down into valley below. Cloudy sky.

For #footpathfriday I'm sharing this one again. It's really one of our most liked trails.
Even though it doesn't gain a lot of elevation, the path along the shore of the lake is all I like:
narrow, pretty nature like, absolutely great views, bends along the shores so that you don't see too far, and mountains all around ... what else would you need 🙂

A breathtaking lakeside trail scene unfolds in this image, capturing the serene beauty of a rugged coastal path. The foreground features a narrow, rocky trail that winds along the edge of a steep cliff. The trail, bordered by patches of grass and shrubs, invites exploration and promises stunning views. To the left of the trail, a calm lake stretches out, its tranquil waters reflecting the sunlight. The lake is nestled amidst the cliffs and trees, adding a sense of peaceful solitude to the scen…

Steps Into The Unknown (2025)
(Actually a lie, since this was taken on the way back, just before sunset, but it was "into the unknown" a six hours earlier... These steps of the only partially secured path are leading up to around 100 meters above/along the increasingly more steep and narrow canyon. The rocks/slopes on the left go up almost another 2000m [out of view, of course]...)
#FootpathFriday

POV view of a narrow path with natural rock steps along the side walls of a canyon (near its entrance). The section is partially secured with a steel rope along the rock face on the left. Clear blue sky with the opposite side of the valley catching the last sun light of the day.

For #footpathfriday I'm using this photo!
We went out on a very cloudy day, assumig that we'd also get into rain.
But we didn't want to hold ourselfes back and hike into the clouds. of course, we didn't have epic vistas - but the mood up there was just unique. The limited visibility, the lack of sounds, the dim light.
I really enjoyed that day!

A tranquil and atmospheric rural scene unfolds in this image, capturing the quiet beauty of a frosty morning. The foreground features a field blanketed in a light layer of frost, its grassy surface glistening under the soft light of the rising sun. The frost adds a delicate sparkle, enhancing the peaceful and crisp atmosphere of the scene. In the background, a cluster of quaint houses nestles at the foot of a rolling hill, their rooftops also touched by frost. The houses, with their rustic cha…

Beam me back, Scotty!
(To one of my favorite places on this planet... We went till the foot of the 1000 meter tall vertical ice fall in the very back, past the beaten paths... #FootpathFriday and belated #ThrowbackThursday time)

A short section of path visible a few hundred meters above a large, but dying glacier. Snow and ice packed 4000 meter mountain peaks in the back, other glaciers coming down in side valleys, but disconnected (too short) due to climate change. The path is surrounded by tundra vegetation in beautiful autumn colors. Blue sky with some cumulus forming on the horizon.

Icy Path (2026)
(Fresh layer of snow in the mountains this week. Though this image is from a month ago...)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography #Ice

The reflection of a sunlit snowy mountain massif in the partially thawed ice creates an almost abstract artwork.

Just returned from a wonderful 11km Friday afternoon walk along the boundary between the seasons...
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography

View of a mountain landscape from above a small lake with green/blue water, surrounded by forest and meadows. Snow capped larger mountains in the background.
View across a still half-frozen lake towards the other side basking in warm afternoon light. The grasses and reeds are completely dry and golden. Some trees scattered and the forest edge in the background.
Cute close up of a narrow path in the afternoon sunlight with heather (in bloom) growing on both sides. An old tree stump semi-overgrown with moss.
Close up of some heather near the 50m drop off toward the lake in the background. Beautiful blue water surface.

Kellenspitze (2025)
(latest 8x6" Kallitype print from last night)
This mountain is the tallest peak in the Tannheimer Alps, here seen from a narrow ridge path in the north east. It was a fabulous warm day with so many mountain flowers in full bloom and clouds forming/drifting between the passes and nearby peaks, later developing into a heavy thunderstorm (thankfully only when I was already descending again...)

Phone picture of a 8x6" kallitype print of a large mountain peak partially shrouded in clouds forming around it. In the foreground is a narrow ridge with a very similar profile as the peak. A small group of low-growth trees next to it and a large valley running down and opening up from the pass on the left. Dark moody sky.

Sunset walk
Happy #FootpathFriday !
#LandscapePhotography #WinterWonderland #Mountains

Sunset over a beautiful snowed in landscape in the foothills of the Alps on a cold and crisp clear day. The sun flares just before disappearing behind the ridges of the mountains in the distance, which are already casting their shadows far and long. The view is from an open ridge and the snow in the foreground is illuminated by orange light. Other people's foot steps have a created a path in the snow, leading into the distance towards a forest on the right hand side. Clear azure sky.
