Droneshot of the Ellbachsee in the Northern Black Forest. The silting up, originally almost round lake now only has the shape of a three-fingered hand. The “fingers” facing south-southwest are between 80 and 110 meters long and the “palm” to the north has a diameter of around 40 meters. The water body, which is predominantly covered by swinging grass, has a maximum diameter of almost 150 meters.
I don’t get to do #WaterfallWednesday very often. So here are several in a row at Provo River Falls. Half way through the workweek everyone!

Continuing my Salt Flats series because after the shots of the water, the sky started to show off. And as the sun got lower the colors got better and better.
Droneshot of a breakwater at the Dutch Northsea coast. The mysterious object in the middle is some kind of water overflow for the land behind the dunes. There's not much info to find about it on the internet but I guess it works well because we don't have wet feet (yet) ;).
It was a cloudy day today, not much color to see on the beach but I like the structures in this shot.
Lake ice is not what you’d expect at all when seen from above. I’m guessing the shapes are formed by currents in the water as the lake freezes. There are a lot of green and blue colors down there too.
2nd droneshot from yesterdays short trip to Italy. „Bapedi Bupi, Bapedi Skupi“, as the Italian‘s say. Not.
Sometimes when I stand in a place like this, I’m humbled by the eons of time it took to create it and how fleeting my own short, mortal existence is in comparison.
The world's largest Mercedes star is the Mercedes Bridge in Bad Aussee, Styria.
In cooperation with Mercedes, a pedestrian bridge was built in 2005 in the shape of a Mercedes star, with a diameter of 27 meters.
The bridge is located in the spa park of Bad Aussee, above the confluence of the source rivers of the Traun, where the Grundlseer Traun merges with the Altausseer Traun.
The Mercedes Bridge has also become synonymous with the geographic center of Austria.
The stone marking Austria's geographic center is just a few meters away → Center of Austria.
By the way, the Mercedes star is "guarded" by Archduke Johann—his statue is also located in the spa park of Bad Aussee.
Flying high on life on a Monday morning. I have a big work conference I’ll be helping with this week, so I won’t be around online much. I’ll take this opportunity to wish you all a wonderful week!
Frozen Fryslân at the ice rink of the Nijelamer skating club where the 100th anniversary short skating competitions were held this evening
Another thing that makes Utah amazing is its variety. Just a few hours from the red rock canyons and arches are majestic mountains full of greenery.

This aerial view shows Sotterley Hall, a Grade I listed country house set within historic parkland in north-east Suffolk, a few miles inland from the coast at Southwold and Beccles. The present house is an elegant early-18th-century brick mansion, remodelled in the Palladian style c.1740, though parts of the estate go back much further.
The Hall has been associated with the Barne family since the 18th century, when Miles Barne (1718–1780), a wealthy London merchant and MP, purchased Sotterley in 1744. The family greatly enlarged and remodelled the house and laid out the surrounding parkland in the mid-18th century, creating the designed landscape we see today. The park includes sweeping lawns, lakes, and avenues of trees, and is a fine example of the English landscape style.
The wider Sotterley Park is registered as a Grade II listed historic landscape on the Register of Parks and Gardens. It retains medieval origins, with evidence of a former deer park, as well as later additions by the Barnes. Within its bounds are several listed buildings, ancient woodland, and a number of fine veteran oaks and sweet chestnuts, some hundreds of years old.
The estate also contains the parish church of St Margaret’s, a beautiful medieval church with a distinctive round tower, standing within the park close to the Hall – an unusual and evocative survival of the medieval manorial landscape.
Today, Sotterley remains a private estate, but its parkland and architecture continue to illustrate the long history of Suffolk’s landed families and the layered development of English country house landscapes from medieval to Georgian times.
