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.

I sooo often don't have photos of the summit cross when I go to the #mountains . Don't ask me why. Maybe because I usually have people in the photo?
It was the same that day: I almost left without that photo when I stepped over the flowers and thought that they might be a cool foreground for the summit. And by focusing on the flowers and blurring the people, I also don't hav…

This image captures a serene and picturesque mountain summit, blending natural beauty with a touch of human presence. The foreground is dominated by vibrant blue gentian flowers, their striking color standing out against the rugged, rocky terrain. The flowers are in sharp focus, drawing the viewer's attention to their delicate petals and adding a sense of vitality to the scene. The background features a wooden cross, a common marker for mountain peaks, standing tall against the clear blue sky.…

Even after a U.S. bombing raid last June and more than five weeks of attacks on Iran since February,
one suspected nuclear site remains untouched.
Experts say the underground facility, known as #Pickaxe #Mountain, is buried so deep that it may lie beyond the reach of America’s most powerful bunker-buster bo…

Trump Is Urged to Act on Iranian Site Feared Impervious to Airstrikes
Little is known about Pickaxe Mountain, but some experts say it illustrates the impossibility of relying on force alone to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear bomb.

Monochrome Mirror Mountain Monday

B&W photo of a large snow covered mountain reflecting on the completely still (and partially ice covered) surface of the lake in front of it.

Rest area on I-55 had this ridiculously blatant #MountainDew knockoff. They even lifted the color scheme. My brain registered it as the real thing, until I looked again. I don’t think I’ve ever come closer to actually confusing one brand for another; wonder how many tired travelers have bought this thinking it was the real thing.

A bottle of “Arctic Rain” soda in a vending machine on interstate 55 in Mississippi. At first glance you’d easily mistake it for Mountain Dew, the color scheme is the same as the real McCoy.

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.

From a recent hike that I haven't yet blogged about - but I thought I'd just like to share it already with you.
The start of the hike wasn't in the snow but on top, there was still a good winter feeling.
Well, I hope you like it. Maybe it was the last winter shooting this season for me ...

A breathtaking alpine scene unfolds in this image, capturing the stunning beauty of a snowy mountain landscape under a clear blue sky. The foreground features a snow-covered path, partially cleared and bordered by high snowbanks, inviting exploration and adventure. The path is flanked by evergreen trees, their branches dusted with snow, adding a touch of natural beauty and depth to the scene. In the mid-ground, a group of hikers can be seen making their way along the path, adding a sense of sc…

Alpstein
(To me, one of the most stunning and interesting mountain ranges, the tectonic folds here having created the most incredible forms, formations and stunning valleys in between...)
#MountainMonday #LandscapePhotography

B&W photo of a mountain peak exhibiting intensely folded layers of rock and resulting curved forms, cliffs and ridges over multiple levels. Forested slopes running halfway up from the valley, snowfields higher up near the bare rocky peak. Sunny day with semi-overcast sky.

Hoher Ifen (2023)
One of the most unique and geologically interesting and layered mountains in the Northern Alps, including the extremely karst Gottesacker (aka God's Acre, aka Cemetery) plateau with deep caves... one of the areas I'm hoping to explore further this year...
#MountainMonday

Wide-format B&W photo of a sloped mountain massif in the distance and a large rocky plateau in front, transitioning into forests further down the valley. The edge of a closed mountain ridge in the bottom-left corner.

My #silentSunday is from last week. Maybe I'll also add a blog post later.
Anyways - enjoy some snow for which I went to the mountains for you :)
Enjoy!

A breathtaking winter landscape unfolds in this image, capturing the pristine beauty of a snowy mountain slope. The slope, blanketed in a thick layer of untouched snow, glistens under the bright sunlight. The sun, positioned high in the clear blue sky, casts a radiant glow, creating a dazzling effect on the snow's surface. In the background, a cluster of tall evergreen trees stands majestically, their dark green foliage providing a striking contrast to the white snow. The trees, partially dust…
