We are still on Monte Lagazuoi Piccolo, but our cable car is already coming, so it's time to go back down :)
Monte Lagazuoi Piccolo is a peak located in the Dolomites with a height of 2,778 m above sea level. You can take the cable car from Passo Falzarego up to Lagazuoi and in a you will reach there the mountain hut Rifugio Lagazuoi, with the vewing terrace offering a spectacular view over an array of mountains towards the south and west. From the Rifugio Lagazuoi there is an easy path to the great viewpoint at the top of Piccolo Lagazuoi, where there is a cross that celebrates the victims of the World War I. Here you can admire some of the highest and most stunning Dolomite mountains: Tofana di Rozes, Cinque Torri, Marmolada, Piz Boe and Mount Civetta.

Wciąż jesteśmy na Monte Lagazuoi Piccolo, ale nasza kolejka już wjeżdża, więc czas wrócić z powrotem na dół :)
Monte Lagazuoi Piccolo to szczyt leżący w Dolomitach o wysokości 2778 m n.p.m. Na górze jest schronisko – Rifugio Lagazuoi, do którego można się dostać kolejką z przełęczy Passo Falzarego. Wagonik kolejki pokonuje 630 metrów różnicy wzniesień w mniej niż 3 minuty zawieszony na linach bez pośrednich słupków nośnych. Z tarasu schroniska rozpościera się jeden z ładniejszych widoków na Dolomity, od Tofane przez Marmoladę, aż po grupę Sella. Ze schroniska prowadzi łatwa ścieżka do punktu widokowego na szczycie Piccolo Lagazuoi, gdzie znajduje się krzyż upamiętniający walki z okresu I wojny światowej. Można stąd podziwiać panoramę najwyższych szczytów w Dolomitach.

My first SLR was a Canon F1. It's a marvel of mechanical engineering. There are levers, gears and springs working in perfect timing to expose a patch of film and then advance that film to just the right spot to repeat the process on the next unexposed patch. The camera I used for this image has a marvel of a mechanical shutter that works to expose the image sensor to just the right amount of light to generate an image that can be saved to a memory card. The shutter mechanism is about the only mechanical device in the camera that directly contributes to the image. The rest of the process is a computer moving bits from the sensor to the card. There are some cameras that have no mechanical shutter. I have a little point and shoot from 2010 that uses a recording to imitate a shutter click. The computer centric nature of modern cameras means that batteries must be kept charged. Therefore, everywhere I have a computer there is not only a rat's nest of wires that go with the computer but as here a dangling mass of USB cables of various design for the battery chargers and power bricks necessary to keep everything going. This image is sixty-five mm across. HMM and thank you for any views, faves and comments.
