Goodbye 2011
I wish you all a great year 2012!
The darker days
A long time ago
I hope all your plans and dreams for 2011 come true. I think it’s going to be a fantastic year.
This photo of some trees at Schauinsland can also be viewed in my Flickr stream.
White calmness
Finally, it’s winter.
spring is here
This morning a had a little time to take a walk across some fields close to my home. I really enjoyed the fresh air and the smell of spring.
silence
Yesterday I re-visited one of the most beautiful places in the Southern Black Forest, called Schauinsland. This is a beech tree that got its shape from the steadily blowing wind.
The weather was really uncomfortable (fog, wind, heavy snowfall, -5°C) but perfect for shots like this one. I’m really happy with how it came out. I didn’t convert the photo to b&w but due to the fog there were no colors. So it’s a “natural” b&w. 🙂
a good morning …
… starts with a walk. I noticed the past days that the sky was always very colorful in the morning. So I got up a bit earlier today to take a walk over some fields and catch some of these colors. Strike! 🙂
morning moon
Another one from my recent wet feet morning walk. Thought about stamping out the moon but finally I left it because I couldn’t think of another title. Haha! 🙂
when the days are growing shorter
Taken early in the morning some days ago. Love this place, esp. in the morning when you can breath the fresh air and smell the humidity.
I got wet feet. Next time I’ll have to bring along my wellies. 🙂
