Sechseläuten is the celebration of the end of Winter in Zurich ( at the middle of April), with the culmination being the burning of the Böögg, a snowman perched atop a huge bonfire. It is a half day public holiday in Zurich
The burning of the Böögg snowman is said to determine the quality of the Summer to come. The bonfire is lit from below and once the flames reach the snowman, the excitement in the very large crowd grows.
The "dance" of participants around the fire is real fantastical.

Golden light at the end of the day spills through the forest and onto the growing ferns.
Thanks for looking!

A series of typical shapes of Lofoten.
Lofoten is an archipelago and a traditional district in the county of Nordland, Norway. Lofoten has distinctive scenery with dramatic mountains and peaks, open sea and sheltered bays, beaches and untouched lands. Its largest town, Leknes, is approximately 169 km (105 mi) inside the Arctic Circle and approximately 2,420 km (1,500 mi) away from the North Pole, making Lofoten one of the world's northernmost populated regions. Though lying within the Arctic Circle, the archipelago experiences one of the world's largest elevated temperature anomalies relative to its high latitude.
Lofoten (Old Norse: Lófót) was the original name of the island Vestvågøya. The first element is ló (i.e., "lynx") and the last element is derived from Norse fótr (i.e., "foot"), as the shape of the island must have been compared with that of a lynx's foot. (The old name of the neighbouring island Flakstadøya was Vargfót, "wolf's foot", from vargr "wolf".)
Lofotr was originally the name of the island of Vestvågøy only. Later it became the name of the chain of islands. The chain of islands with its pointed peaks looks like a lynx foot from the mainland. In Norwegian, it is always a singular. Another name one might come across, is "Lofotveggen" or the Lofoten wall. The archipelago looks like a closed wall when seen from elevated points around Bodø or when arriving from the sea, some 100 kilometres (62 miles) long, and 800–1,000 metres (2,600–3,300 feet) high.
5 pictures is my max of non-family related content.lol.
Not much done to this one because I like the sundown light (*magic) so much.
Was trying to get a back-lit silhouette of the castle. After having seen this show before, I knew the lights would be off (the castle) for about three seconds. Was hoping there would be enough fire power behind it to pull it off, and that the clock and light in the window would show through... Think I got it.

Taken on a hiking trip in the northwest city Molde in januar 2010. The light in the moment was unike, and made a magic lightcast over the fjord, mountains and the bridge that binds the people in the area to the sourroundings.
This wood duck seems to be having a refreshing drink while swimming in some beautiful reflections near St. John's, NL, Canada.
I photographed this last Saturday. It is a fence which starts along the road and stops under water. In the barbwire there were all kinds of deteriorated things hanging in the wind, this is all filtered out of the water. The fence itself, it's rusty and old it is absolutely in decay.
After enjoying my lunch in a little taverner in Xanten, I asked the waitress if I could make a picture of her. She answered: "yes" and here it is.
Mt. Hamilton Road, Lick Observatory, Santa Clara County, CA, 3/4/2015
Linhof Master Technika 2000 camera, 210mm Rodenstock Sironar-N f/5.6 lens, Fujicolor Pro 160S film, 3 exposures, 130 megapixels
Mt. Hamilton dominates the landscape east of San Jose, CA. The 4,216 feet tall mountain overlooks Santa Clara Valley and is the site of Lick Observatory, the first permanently occupied mountain-top observatory in the world. The foothills of Mt. Hamilton are dominated by majestic oaks and grassland, while its upper reaches are covered in pines. This high ridge is at an elevation of 3,100 feet and has a healthy mix of deciduous and evergreen trees. The views from the mountain are extraordinary, especially around sunset! Here as we look southwest, the golden light gives the late winter foliage a beautiful warm glow.

Legend says that the Irish warrior Fionn mac Cumhaill (Finn McCool) built the causeway to walk to Scotland to fight his Scottish counterpart Benandonner. Once Fionn saw Benandonner's great bulk, fled back home and asked his wife to disguise him as the baby. When the much larger Benandonner crossed the bridge looking for him met Fionn's wife Oonagh, who laid a blanket over Fionn pretending that he was actually their baby son. Then Benandonner, seeing the size of the 'infant', he assumed the alleged father, Fionn, must be gigantic indeed. Therefore, Benandonner fled home in terror, ripping up the Causeway in case he was followed by Fionn.
Actually, the causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. It is located in County Antrim on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland, UK.
Much better on big in the lightbox
