Mt. Sinopah catches the sunrise nicely before the daily winds arrive to roil the waters of Pray Lake.
To the Blackfeet tribe the Two Medicine area was considered the "Backbone of the World" and were frequented during vision quests. They had it right as I'm always spiritually moved when here.
I posted an overview of the Two Medicine area yesterday.
A few other images of Mt. Sinopah in comments.
May your day have a little magic in it.
“Stairs," Valkyrie said, disappointed.
"Not just ordinary stairs," Skulduggery told her as he led the way down. "Magic stairs."
"Really?"
"Oh, yes."
She followed him into the darkness. "How are they magic?"
"They just are."
"In what way?"
"In a magicky way."
She glared at the back of his head. "They aren't magic at all, are they?"
"Not really.”

Photographed at Shanlinxi Forest Recreation Area(Sun Link Sea Forest Recreation Area) last Sunday. Very cold with a little rain, but no snow. :-)
Shanlinxi Forest Recreation Area or Sun Link Sea Forest Recreation Area (Chinese: 杉林溪森林生態渡假園區; pinyin: Shānlínxī Sēnlín Shēngtài Dùjiǎ Yuánqū) is a forest in Zhushan Township, Nantou County, Taiwan.
The forest is located at an elevation of 1,600-1,800 meters above sea level with an area of 40 hectares. It consists of herb and flower garden as well as three waterfalls, namely Qingyun Waterfall, Niaosong Waterfall and Water Curtain Cave Waterfall.
The Magic of the ocean always draws me in. Always. It is healing and magical. Pacifica is a beautiful area with fabulous eateries, shops and a gorgeous goth castle (Sam’s Castle) built in 1908 loaded with colorful history , paranormal and mystery. Lovey’s Tea shop is delightful and has yummy homemade scones and great loose leaf teas to choose from. Yum. Nick’s Restaurant is a go to place for drinks and delicious food. Many hidden gems await discovery for those who like to explore.

Well, who has an idea where we ended up? That's right, that's Lake Constance, with the island of Lindau in the middle of the picture.
Severe storms were announced for the coming night, which finally broke over us. When we reached our spectacular vantage point near Eichenberg in Austria, the sky was already covered with thick, dark clouds. The prospect of a sunset view (the real reason we went here) was extremely minimal. Only on the horizon was there a thin, light stripe that was enough for us to decide to wait..
Luckily, because suddenly the cloud cover opened in exactly the right place like a heavenly portal and we were treated to a spectacular nature experience.
We could only stand and marvel as the light and the atmosphere kept changing with the setting sun and the moving clouds. An utterly mesmerizing sight.
The only awkward part of this trip came when, from the many shots, I had to choose one over all the others. Hell for a photographer.
Na, wer hat schon eine Idee, wo es uns hinverschlagen hat ? Richtig, das ist der Bodensee, mit der Insel Lindau in der Mitte des Bildes.
Für die kommende Nacht wurden uns schwere Unwetter angekündigt, welche dann schlußendlich auch über uns hereingebrochen sind. Als wir unseren spektakulären Aussichtspunkt bei Eichenberg in Österreich erreicht hatten, war der Himmel auch schon von dicken und dunklen Wolken bedeckt. Die Aussicht auf einen Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang (der eigentliche Grund unseres Besuches hier) war äußerst gering. Lediglich am Horizont war ein dünner heller Streifen zu sehen der ausgereicht hat, dass wir uns zum Abwarten entschieden.
Zum Glück, denn plötzlich öffnete sich genau an der richtigen Stelle die Wolkendecke gleich einem himmlischen Portal und wir wurden mit einem spektakulären Naturerlebnis beschenkt.
Wir konnten nur dastehen und staunen, denn der Lichteinfall und die Atmosphäre veränderten sich mit der sinkenden Sonne und den sich bewegenden Wolken ununterbrochen. Ein ganz und gar faszinierender Anblick.
Der einzig unangenehme Teil dieses Ausfluges kam, als ich mich, aus den vielen Aufnahmen, für eine und somit gegen alle anderen enscheiden musste. Die Hölle für einen Fotografen.
