The Krimml Waterfalls form the highest waterfall in Europe and the fifth highest waterfall in the world. The falls, formed from the Krimmler Ache River, overcome 380 m in three steps. The Krimml Waterfall Trail leads along the waterfalls and offers breathtaking views.
Austrian doctors discovered the healing powers of the Krimml Waterfalls as long as 200 years ago. According to their description, the fine spray helps to heal exterior inflammations and pains caused by debility and weakness. Even nervous ailments can be alleviated or even healed when visiting the waterfalls.
Thank you for looking,

Der Turmfalke (Falco tinnunculus) ist ein faszinierender Greifvogel, der häufig in Mitteleuropa anzutreffen ist. Er ist bekannt für seinen charakteristischen Rüttelflug, bei dem er auf der Stelle in der Luft schwebt, um nach Beute Ausschau zu halten1. Im Jahr 2007 wurde der Turmfalke in Deutschland und 2008 in der Schweiz zum Vogel des Jahres gekürt1.
Das Erscheinungsbild des Turmfalken zeigt einen ausgeprägten Geschlechtsdimorphismus. Männchen haben einen grauen Kopf und rotbraunen Rücken mit kleinen schwarzen Flecken, während Weibchen einheitlich rotbraun gefärbt sind. Sie sind anpassungsfähige Vögel, die auch in Städten und anderen menschlichen Siedlungen brüten, oft in hohen Gebäuden oder Türmen.
The kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) is a fascinating bird of prey that is commonly found in Central Europe. It is known for its characteristic shaking flight, during which it hovers in the air to look for prey1. In 2007, the kestrel was named bird of the year in Germany and in 2008 in Switzerland1.
The appearance of the kestrel shows a pronounced sexual dimorphism. Males have a grey head and reddish-brown back with small black spots, while females are uniformly reddish-brown in colour. They are adaptable birds that also breed in cities and other human settlements, often in tall buildings or towers.

Uncropped. This male came so close that I almost thought he was going to fly into my lens. Luckily he sat down on a branch 2m in front of me and didn't move for a while. He only just fitted into the frame!

The weather hasn't been kind on our holiday which is coming to an end. We took a walk this evening, on the beach near Bamburgh Castle, hoping for a nice sunset but were disappointed - so the Moody was myself! Because we'd made the effort though, I decided to try and find a nice composition and the bright sea weed caught my eye. I was very surprised to see this reach #171 in Explore, thank you all for your kind comments and favourites.
This was reason number 1 for booking a short break along the Exmoor Coast.

A lone hiker explores the huge rock canyons, arches, and windows early in the morning. There's an almost endless supply of rock formations to explore and daybreak is the best time to do so. The rock almost glows red in color as the low angle sun hits it for the first time.

Summer is a great time for taking photos not only because of wonderful sunsets and sunrises, fresh grass and forests. I also like thunderstorms, the power of it. And of course the wonderful smell of ozone that promises heavy rain very soon.

Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.

"Was zur Hölle....!?" dachte ich, als ich den alten TV-Rahmen während eines Fotoshootings der etwas anderen Art erblickte. Meine Ideen explodierten und selbst die kleinsten Synapsen in den letzten Ecken meines Kopfes tanzten vor Freude. :D

Taken on a recent trip to the west coast of Scotland was rewarded with this image after a long wait for heavy showers to stop. Was well worth the wait I was not aware at the time it was a double rainbow.

Mentre attendo il tuo ritorno, sto guardando vecchie schedine, ho trovato questa foto,
ti ricordi quel giorno quando mi insegnavi ad usare il cavalletto? :)
E...... questa è drittissima! Lo vedi l'albero in centro.....
Chi non leggerà qui mi dirà che avrei potuto tenere un'altra inquadratura!
Uhhhh, come mi manchi!

Actual I don't want to make this Photo. On the way to my planned photo spot (the "Schwenninger Moos") I had to drive through the fog. On the highway I saw the morning sun broke through the fog. So I decided to exit the highway and drove to an higher situated viewpoint - the "Hegaublick" (Hegau view). Once there, I was able to made this photo before the sun disappeared completely behind the clouds. After this lucky picture I drove further to my originally planned photo spot (these pictures I will show you next week).
In this picture you see one of the Hegau volcanoes, the Hohenhewen. In the background you can see the Swiss Alps.
Thank you for all comments and fav's!
