morning glory

This panoramic picture was shot some years ago; after a windy and cold night in our sleeping bags we got up even before the sunrise - morning glory.


flowered stones

taraxacum apenninumYellow flower in between stones - nothing more. This picture was taken some time ago during one of my hiking tours.


golden sunset

golden sunsetOn my way downstream the Danube this shot was taken. The clouds dimmed the light accordingly; electronic picture processing has not been done here.


small garden

LeimkrautIn the limestone alps the water sometimes washed out basins - which is immediatelly occupied by the botanic. But few water only allows flat greens; nevertheless these plants are blooming beautiful when wet.


schnapps in initial style

EnzianThis flower is very popular in Austria (especially when available as alcoholic fluid - hint: can be used for binge drinking! ;-) ) It’s growing only in the mountains above 1500 m.


bug in pixelmania

buggyPlease report any bugs found in this picture ;-) . It would be helpful for me to advance my photographic cognition.

Btw: this guy blocked the way to my daily feeder.


storm front

storm front arriving LinzA storm front was arriving Linz when I was just starting to drive home with my bike. Fortunately the upcoming wind speeded me up to 45 km/h so that I did not get wet in the end.


gloaming

twitchesThe end of a day is coming close to Linz - the Danube twitches a last time before falling into the dark.


midsummer passed successfully

Just wanted to mention that the days have started to close in. Winter is coming again. Yippee!


tenacious green

This pano was taken last year’s September during our 5-days tour through the region of the Totes Gebirge. There is nearly no vegatation on its plateau; nevertheless some very tenacious green has covered the southwestern part.
