Un estilo un poco reto para acompañar hoy a la antena, jejeje.
Feliz martes de nubes para todos y todas.
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.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

Nathan Hale taught in this one-room school house in 1773/74. He was executed by the British for being a spy during the Revolutionary War. Before being hanged, he said the words I put in this photo's title. He was just 21 at the time of his death. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Hale
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.
Je n'en ai jamais vu autant en une quinzaine de jours ... ( I have never seen so many rainbows in a short time, a fortnight !)

Schwäbisch Hall "Swabian Hall", or Hall for short, is a city in the German state of Baden-Württemberg and capital of the district of Schwäbisch Hall. The city is located in the valley of the Kocher river in the north-eastern part of Baden-Württemberg.
Hall was a Free Imperial City for five centuries until it was annexed by Württemberg in 1802.
"Schwäbisch" refers to the Swabian League (German: Schwäbischer Bund). The origin of the second part of the name, "Hall", is unclear. It might be derived from a West Germanic word family that means "drying something by heating it", possibly referring to the open-pan salt making method used there until the saltworks closed down in 1925.

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.
