This view was taken at sunset from the east side of the Aare Gorge (Aareschlucht) in the Bernese Alps. From here one can traverse the canyon to Meiringen, the west and main port of this magnificent gorge.

Inspired by Matthias I added this music to my image - hope you enjoy it, my friends :-)

The Alpine Ibex is a large mountain goat with horns that curve backwards over its head and powerful, muscular frames on spindly legs. This is a young kid with short horns.

A pasque flower blooms at 10,300'/ 3100 m near Brainard Lake in the Front Range of the southern Rockies. Its lowland cousins were flowering 7 weeks ago. The populations differ greatly in height, a common adaptation to mountain weather. The high elevation populations are shorter, lowering exposure to high winds and keeping the flower closer to the warmer soil surface.

This proud Alpine Ibex is the only adult male in the group at our zoo. There are other males but they are juveniles. In the wild the males would only stay with the females during mating season. For the rest of the year the males live in separate "bacholor groups".

I add two more photos of this ibex in the comments.

Autmun at the Kochel lake in the bavarian alpins.I have been fortunate to encounter this spectacular scene of autmun.

A cold breeze moved the trees only enough to make leaves fall away why mountain peaks scrached the dark gray rainy clouds.

I had some time after meetings on this autumn day in the late afternoon to drive the famous Alpine Loop in Utah. The 17-mile drive is known for its bright autumn leaves, which start to appear in September, but tend to be at their best in October and into November--depending on the weather, of course.

I was attracted to the patterns leading to the forest in this cold winter scene in Scotland.

A really tough hike, but the lake and views are just stunning! The waters so pure and the colors reminiscent of a tropical getaway. The presence of the mountains ringing the lake and off in the distance were awesome. I hope in the future to do more hiking in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness.

I know I've been off Flickr for a while. In a nutshell, work has been extremely challenging and I have just been too tired to keep up with posting on various websites. I hope to keep on top of things a little more now that things are kind of settling down.

As always, please follow me on Instagram @onegirlsplussizedadventure where I post things more regularly. Photos can be purchased here: gwendolynallsopphotography.zenfoliosite.com/home

Soldanella alpina - Alpen-Soldanelle - Ægte alpeklokke.

I really wanted to experience the yellow larches on the Alpe di Siusi this autumn. In addition I planned to take a few holidasy in the last week of October and go there. Unfortunately, bad weather was announced for half the week and I postponed my plan by a few days. When I finally got there almost a week later than planned, I was lucky: the larch coloring had already clearly passed its peak, but it was still golden.
