I finally got the time to enjoy a day out in a beautiful autumn landscape. One of the places I visited were Strømsfoss pier, with steamboats as daily in the summertime transport is arranged on the Halden canal. Strømsfoss, Østfold, Norway.

Sunrise from one of my mornings on Capers Island a couple weeks back... There were a lot of gnarly old stumps on the beach but I particularly liked this piece of driftwood.

Nur ein paar Schritte entfernt vom Aufnahmestandort des gestrigen Bildes: das Städtchen rückt aus dem Blickfeld, der Herbstwald unter Burg zu Lengfeld dominiert jetzt das Bild, ein Streifen Herbstraps sorgt für den Frischekick. Herbst kann so schön sein - wenn das Wetter schön ist!!!
Just a few steps from the place where I captured yesterday's image: the small town moves out of sight, the fall wood beneath Lengfeld castle now dominates the picture, a strip of rapeseed provides a freshness boost. Fall can be so nice - if the weather is nice!!!
A long exposure, landscape image of Covesea Skerries Lighthouse near Lossiemouth in Morayshire, Scotland.
When browsing through the archive I keep discovering wonderful memories ... that would be it now, spontaneously a week to Fuerteventura ...

Shanghai, China
December 2015
The image (a crop) shows a close up of the Yan'An Elevated Road/Highway from the Bund (Waitan) in Shanghai, China. The partial building at the bottom right hand corner is No 1 on the Bund - Asia Building. This image was captured late into the blue hour when the sky was almost black. As this is a close up of this section of the urban scene, no sky is seen within this image.

Pedra da Gávea is a monolithic mountain in Tijuca Forest, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Composed of granite and gneiss, its elevation is 844 metres (2,769 ft), making it one of the highest mountains in the world that ends directly in the ocean. Trails on the mountain were opened up by the local farming population in the early 1800s; today, the site is under the administration of the Tijuca National Park.
The mountain's name translates as Rock of the Topsail, and was given to it during the expedition of Captain Gaspar de Lemos, begun in 1501, and in which the Rio de Janeiro bay (today Guanabara Bay, but after which the city was named) also received its name. The mountain, one of the first in Brazil to be named in Portuguese, was named by the expedition's sailors, who compared its silhouette to that of the shape of a topsail of a carrack upon sighting it on January 1, 1502. That name in turn came to be given to the Gávea area of the city of Rio de Janeiro.
Differential weathering on one side of the rock has created what is described as a stylized human face. Markings on another face of the rock have been described as an inscription. Geologists and scientists are nearly in agreement that the "inscription" is the result of erosion and that the "face" is a product of pareidolia. Furthermore, the consensus of archaeologists and scholars in Brazil is that the mountain should not be viewed as an archaeological site.
