Let's go see an Alpine Paradise. The Bachalpsee panorama. Grindelwald, Canton of Bern, Switzerland.26.08.19, 13:03:17. No. 91.
My admiration to the amazing Anita Rachvelishvili - Mezzo Soprano .
"It's impossible to imagine the Swiss mountain world as more idyllic than the area surrounding Lake Bachalpsee. The snow-covered peaks of the Alps are reflected in the crystal clear blue water.
First is the starting point for hikes and it offers action: An adrenaline rush and speed thrills are guaranteed on the First Flyer, trottibike scooters or bikes. Children can have fun on the 700-m² playground at the Bort intermediate station."
Trois étapes vous seront nécessaires pour débarquer en toute tranquillité dans cet écrin de nature montagnarde paradisiaque. A 2200 mètres d'altitude, le First offre des panoramas étourdissants, notamment une vue imprenable sur sept 4000 des Alpes bernoises.
En une petite heure de marche à travers pâturages et chemins pédestres bucoliques, vous atteignez le superbe lac Bachalpsee et ses eaux cristallines. De tous les côtés, des points de vue pittoresques. Inoubliable ascension. Pour un peu de culture, passez donc la nuit au Berghotel Faulhorn, le plus ancien hôtel de montagne de Suisse!
Der First ist eine Verflachung des Südwest-Rückens zum Widderfeldgrätli (2'632 m ü. M.) im Berner Oberland nördlich oberhalb von Grindelwald. Er ist über eine Gondelbahn oder zu Fuss erreichbar. Die obere Bergstation heisst ebenfalls First (2'167 m ü. M.) und steht den Besuchern im Winter und im Sommer mit einem gut ausgebauten Ski- und Wandergebiet zur Verfügung.
Besonders beliebt ist die Wanderung zum Bachalpsee und weiter zum Faulhorn, die ein spektakuläres Panorama mit Blick auf den oberen Grindelwaldgletscher sowie Eiger, Mönch und Jungfrau bietet. Eine weitere interessante Wanderung führt auf das Schwarzhorn. Östlich von First liegt 5,6 Kilometer zu Fuss entfernt die Grosse Scheidegg.
Der First ist ein Startort für Paraglider und Deltasegler sowie Ausgangspunkt für zahlreiche Mountainbiketouren. Station First bietet auch einen imposanten kurvenreichen Schlittenweg, welcher bei guten Schneeverhältnissen direkt nach Grindelwald führt.

Riuscire a realizzare un mosaico astronomico non è cosa semplice.
Quando, come in questo caso, i pannelli sono molti l'acquisizione delle immagini richiede più giorni.
Ciò significa che occorrono più sessioni fotografiche, tutte con gli stessi parametri: ISO, tempo di posa, numero di scatti da combinare, ma anche qualità del cielo, seeing, temperatura ambiente.
Ovviamente si capisce che ciò non è solitamente possibile. Oltretutto altri fattori possono ancorchè complicare le cose: nuvole improvvise, umidità , posizione in cielo non idonea, problemi tecnici.
Per questo motivo questo mosaico ha necessitato di ben 4 anni per essere concluso. Avevo già caricato qui flic.kr/p/M5ihbd lo stesso mosaico mancante del 5° pannello acquisito quest'anno.
Per correttezza chiarisco che ho dovuto trovare in alcuni casi il miglior compromesso possibile, elaborando diversamente alcuni pannelli, proprio perchè uno o più parametri suddetti non erano gli stessi.
Comunque sono molto soddisfatto del risultato complessivo. Questa zona della Via Lattea nella costellazione del Cigno è molto bella: nubi stellari si intrecciano con nubi oscure e nebuose ad emissione. Nebulose famose come la NGC7000, IC5070 e IC1318 padroneggiano sugli innumerevoli filamenti rossi e le altre nebulose minori. Senza dimenticare i tanti ammassi che si confondono con la quantità impressionante di stelle tra le quali spiccano Deneb, Sadr e Fawaris (δCyg).

Being able to make an astronomical mosaic is not easy.
When, as in this case, the panels are many the acquisition of images takes more days.
This means that more photo sessions are needed, all with the same parameters: ISO, shutter speed, number of shots to be combined, but also sky quality, seeing, outdoor temperature.
Obviously we understand that this is not usually possible. Moreover other factors can even complicate things: sudden clouds, humidity, unsuitable sky position, technical problems.
For these reasons, this mosaic took 4 years to complete. I had already uploaded the same mosaic here flic.kr/p/M5ihbd but it was missing the 5th panel acquired this year.
To be fair, I clarify that in some cases I had to find the best possible compromise, processing some panels differently,
precisely because one or more of the aforementioned parameters were not the same.
However I am satisfied with the overall result. This area of the Milky Way in the Swan constellation is very beautiful: stellar clouds intertwine with dark clouds and emission nebulae. Famous nebulae such as the NGC7000, IC5070 and IC1318 master the countless red strands and other minor nebulae. Not forgetting the many clusters that blend with the impressive amount of stars among which Deneb, Sadr and Fawaris (δCyg).

Andalusia is located in southern Spain and covers an area of ​​8 provinces. Andalusia is the second largest autonomous region in Spain. Beautiful AndalucÃa, the land of olives, oranges, sunflowers, beautiful mountain ranges and valleys, nice white mountain villages with beautiful squares, is a bridge between two continents, Africa and Europe, and is the point where the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea meet. There is something for everyone in Andalusia, from culture to beautiful terraces, sights, long beaches, beautiful inland areas with beautiful reservoirs, mountains and nice villages to visit. Seville is the capital of the province of Andalusia. It has a colorful history dating back to the Romans. You will find beautiful historic buildings, but also tapas bars where they serve the tastiest dishes. And of course not to forget the flamenco. In 1929, as part of the Spanish World Exhibition, among other things, the Plaza de España was constructed: a crescent-shaped square with the Pavilion de España situated on it. There are fifty murals on the façade that refer to the fifty Spanish provinces. In front of it are benches, which are eagerly used. The Plaza de España is a classic place to go with the family on Sundays. The majority of these buildings are used today by the government such as the town hall. The square also served as a film set for Naboo in the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.
The Plaza de España is a landmark in Spain located in Sevilla. A "Moorish paradisical style" with a half mile of tiled fountains, pavilions, walls, ponds, benches, and lush plantings of Mediterranean pines. The Plaza de España has been used as a filming location for in the Star Wars movie – Attack of the Clones. The scene of a young Anakin and Padmé arriving at the planet of Naboo, walking over the bridge and through the corridors of the Royal Palace.
Andalusië ligt in zuid Spanje en beslaat een gebied van 8 provincies. Andalusië de op één na grootste autonome regio in Spanje en meer dan twee keer zo groot als Nederland. Het mooie Andalusië, het land van de olijven, sinaasappels, zonnebloemen, mooie bergketens en valleien, leuke witte bergdorpen met mooie pleintjes, is een brug tussen twee continenten, Afrika en Europa, en is het punt waar de Atlantische Oceaan en de Middellandse Zee elkaar ontmoeten. Er is voor elk wat wils in Andalusië, van cultuur tot mooie terrasjes, bezienswaardigheden, lange stranden, prachtige binnenlanden met mooie stuwmeren, bergen en leuke dorpen om te bezoeken. Sevilla is de hoofdstad van de provincie Andalusië. Het heeft een kleurrijke geschiedenis die teruggaat tot de Romeinen. Je treft er schitterende historische gebouwen, maar ook tapasbars waar ze de lekkerste gerechten serveren. En natuurlijk de flamenco niet te vergeten. In 1929 werd in Sevilla, als onderdeel van de Spaanse Wereldtentoonstelling onder meer de Plaza de España aangelegd: een halvemaanvormig plein met daaraan gelegen het Paviljoen de España. Op de gevel bevinden zich vijftig wandschilderingen die naar de vijftig Spaanse provincies verwijzen. Ervoor bevinden zich bankjes, waar gretig gebruik van wordt gemaakt. De Plaza de España is een klassieke plek om op zondag met de familie heen te gaan. Het merendeel van deze gebouwen wordt vandaag de dag gebruikt door de overheid zoals het stadhuis. Het plein diende ook als filmset voor Naboo in de film Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones uit 2002.
