After the sun has set the winds calmed down enough to get a few shots. A storm had just passed through so it was touch and go if I would come home empty handed.
Just before yesterday's sunset at Leekstermeer, Groningen, The Netherlands.

The second morning light on Sand lake wasn't as colorful as the first but was still worth losing some sleep over.
I was given perfectly still waters which made for some nice reflections.

Buttermere in the Lake district at sunrise. Here you can get the waters so calm and still, although not quite what I was after in the end the result is still a great sunrise.
The conditions were what I was waiting for - some colour in the sky and calm conditions on the salt marsh flats.
I get a deep sense of inner peace when I see a beautiful bird such as this roseate spoonbill feeding and preening in a glassy surfaced lagoon, bathed in early morning light.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks for your views and comments!
Due to current events, I feel compelled to interrupt my series on Morocco. Because after almost exactly a year, I managed to visit my favorite tree on the small mt. Winter in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains again this morning.
The decision was made relatively spontaneously last night. And since it was already too late to go to bed, I just stayed awake and set off at 1:30 a.m. When I got back at 7:30 a.m. I had to get some sleep. That's why I'm a little late today.
It wasn't until I was there that I really realized how much I missed standing up here alone, watching the changes in the light, listening to the birds (and watching them, because a couple of very curious blackbirds were hopping constantly around me) and watch the day as it was born.
I really hope that it won't be too long before I return to this beautiful place.
Aus aktuellem Anlass fühle ich mich genötigt, meine Serie über Marokko zu unterbrechen. Denn nach so ziemlich genau einem Jahr ist es mir heute früh wieder einmal gelungen meinen Lieblingsbaum auf dem kleinen Winterberg im Elbsandsteingebirge zu besuchen.
Die Entscheidung fiel relativ spontan gestern Abend. Und da es schon zu spät war noch ins Bett zu gehen, bin ich einfach wach geblieben und habe mich 1:30 Uhr auf den Weg gemacht. Als ich dann 7:30 Uhr wieder zurück war musste ich erst einmal etwas schlafen. Darum bin ich heute auch etwas später dran.
Erst als ich vor Ort war wurde mir richtig bewusst, wie sehr es mir gefehlt hat allein hier oben zu stehen, die Veränderungen des Lichts zu beobachten, den Vögeln zu lauschen (und Ihnen zuzusehen, denn ein paar sehr neugierige Amseln sind permanent um mich herum gehopst) und dem Tag bei seiner Geburt zuzusehen.
Ich hoffe sehr, dass nicht wieder so viel Zeit vergehen wird, bis ich an diesem wunderschönen Ort zurück kehre.
