In winter, the rice terraces are free from plants, so that the light often reflected in various colors of the sky. When we arrived at the viewpoint pulled fog over the rice fields, but towards the afternoon (as in the picture) the fog lifted .

I think it is a hard work to plant all this fields with rice. With machines may not be working there. The non- water-filled terraces are usually planted with potatoes .

 

Im Winter sind die Reisterrassen frei von Pflanzen, so dass sich das Licht oft in verschiedenen Farben des Himmels spiegelt. Als wir am Aussichtspunkt ankamen zog Nebel über die Reisfelder, der sich aber zum Nachmittag hin (wie auf dem Bild) lichtete.

Ich denke, es ist ein hartes Stück Arbeit, die vielen Felder mit Reis zu bepflanzen. Mit Maschinen geht dort überhaupt nichts. Die nicht mit Wasser gefüllten Terrassen werden meist mit Kartoffeln bepflanzt.

Rain is life; rain is the descent of heaven to earth; without rain, there could be no life.

Panoramablick vom Wildalpjoch über das Inntal hinweg zum Zahmen und Wilden Kaiser bis zum Alpenhauptkamm. Welch ein Novembertag!

Con una caída de más de 50 metros, la cascada de Vilagocende, dicen que es el salto de agua más alto de Galicia, junto con la Fervenza do Toxa, en Silleda. Se encuentra en la provincia de Lugo, concretamente en el municipio de Fonsagrada, a menos de un kilómetro de la localidad de Vilagocende

 

Feliz día

View of Winnarts Pass, on a glorious August Morning.. Peak District , Derbyshire , UK

Foto/Elaborazione digitale su foto di: Agostino D'Ascoli

I like the clouds in the four corners.

A puddle's eye view or rather iPhone's eye view of Skogafoss ... It is hard to get an original composition at this famous waterfall, so I was glad to find the puddle and thankful to the strangers who walked into my composition ... it was not an easy shot to take with the overwhelming spray so close to the falls, it was hard to 'see' what I was composing ... (do look at it large if you have a moment)

some minutes for a walk in this beautiful place

You know I like to do sunrises, unfortunately there was not a decent one all the time I was in Iceland. This was the closest I got. I do like the range of blue tones tinted by the pinks.

At least seeing puffins brightened up what was a wet and dank summers day on Lunga.

The (former) Postamt of Mittenwald at the Bahnhofsplatz.

 

The building dates from 1914, as a post office it is out of use since 2009, new use is as an art museum.

The Croda dei Toni or Cima Dodici (Zwölferkofel in German) is a mountain in the eastern Dolomites 3,094 m asl It is part of the Sesto Dolomites and its name "Croda dei Toni" is due to the dialectal pronunciation of the area of the words "Rock of Thunder "

In the Pellenz, an agricultural landscape in the Eastern Eifel, the canola (rapeseed) fields are blooming again. On Monday of this week I stopped by again to take some extensive photos.

I used ND filter to represent the power of the waves.

Here is the classic vertical version of the so-called Second Wave in the Vermilon Cliffs / Northern Arizona. I can not decide which version looks better.

This is an HDR shot of Grand central Station, New York. I took the wide view to get the scale of the building in, it actually reminded of a Cathederal and that is why I went for the HDR.The shot was taken about 7 on a Saturday morning so it was not that busy, there were more people than this though, but they were blurred by the long exposure and the HDR process so I decided to take them out during processing, again to emphasise the scale.
