This is my favourite image for this year so far. Bathing in milk is the "Heuberg" (Hay mountain). The sea of milk extends to much higher peaks like the ones in the Karwendel mountain range.
I just love how dense the carpet of high fog looks and how on the other hand the fantastic clarity allows for a vision of 100km.
Good morning dear Flickr friends of photography,
yesterday I was a bit surprised by the reactions to my last photo. Reactions? Ahh ... I mean no reaction. I have not had as few faves and comments in a long time as yesterday. The photo shows the beach of Railay/ Krabi after sunset with a scenery, as I have rarely experienced. I stood there and was surrounded by light. It was intoxicating. Just before the sun was just dipping into the horizon in its glaring yellow light and a few minutes later the sky was exploding in red and orange colors and the scenery got something alien. It was intoxicating. So I just wondered, because of so little interest and asked me in all seriousness, if possibly the European server had completely failed. Maybe you were all just terribly tired. I often go that way too...;)
Now I hope that I can wake you up with a minimalistic photo of Lake Constance. On the penultimate weekend I spent two days in a bathing suit on the SUP board but yesterday it had to be the long neoprene wetsuit. It was pretty cold. After sunset, I was really icecold and I had to go home quickly.
I wish you a nice week!

I went seaswimming last sunday. The air temperarure was -8 degrees. There was about 2 cm ice on the surface.
I asked my friend Biggi Sig to take a picture. He is a great photographer. You can see his photostream here.

White Horse in a White World
This iconic lighthouse is called Het Paard, which is Dutch for The Horse. It's situated on a peninsula in the Markermeer, a huge fresh water lake. It's very rare that it's frozen over like this. The last time was probably in 2012.
There is almost no sun down in this part of the Prättigau valley, which is on the way to my hometown Schuders in the Swiss Alps. The temperature is usually below freezing.
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Another winter landscape shot of the icy trees in the incredible lighting at Jump Off Rock during the winter of 2011. Landscape photography featuring a cold winter sunset in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina near Hendersonville, NC. Captured at Jump Off Rock in Laurel Park, this shot really showcases some amazing lighting and conditions at sunset after a winter storm. A small hole in the heavy fog at sunset time allowed the sun to beam in and back light the rime ice crystals covering these old oak trees.

An Ice cave in Vatnajökull ice cap, southern Iceland. Vatnajökull is the largest ice cap in Europe, around 3,100 km³ constanly changing it's formation. The texture on the "floor" is snow mixed with volcanic ash from Grímsvötn, the latest erupting volcano in Iceland, erupting in may 2011.
I'll be traveling around Iceland during the christmas holidays, hopefully visiting some of the caves in Vatnajökull ice cap in Kverkfjöll and other distant areas.

A cherry blossom, also known as Japanese cherry or sakura, is a flower of many trees of genus Prunus or Prunus subg. Cerasus. They are common species in East Asia, including China, Korea and especially in Japan. They generally refer to ornamental cherry trees, not to be confused with cherry trees that produce fruit for eating. It is considered the national flower of Japan.
Many of the cherry trees currently enjoyed for cherry blossom viewing are not wild species but cultivar. Because cherry trees have a mutable trait, many cultivars have been created for cherry blossom viewing, especially in Japan.
In Europe, from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, Collingwood Ingram, an Englishman, collected and studied Japanese cherry blossoms, and created various ornamental cultivars, and the culture of cherry blossom viewing began to be spread. In the United States, cherry blossom viewing began to spread after Japan presented cherry blossoms as a token of friendship in 1912. Cherry blossoms have been described to have a beautiful smell and have been the inspiration for many candles and incense for household use. Many wild species and cultivars bloom from March to April in the Northern Hemisphere.

The first structure to be built in St. Petersburg, and thus the birthplace of the city, it never served its intended defensive function. Instead it has had a rich, hugely varied, and sometimes sinister history as a military base, a home of government departments, the burial ground of the Russian Imperial family, the site of groundbreaking scientific experiments, and a forbidding jail that held some of Russia's most prominent political prisoners.
Won herself a pass to some far off moon
It was second class but what's to lose
And looking out her window she could more than assume
That you can't see air or time
She's the only rocketeer in the whole damn place
They gave her a mirror so she could talk to a face
She still got plenty lonely but that's just the case
With time, time, time
Started hearing voices sometime in June
She knew she could go crazy but didn't think that soon
Now she doesn't feel lonely but she'd just as soon
Try, try, try
Man shot to the moon
I read a paperback and want to come home soon
I'm shot to the moon
Been there a half an hour, I want to come home soon
Soon, soon, soon
