Detail of another spectacular sunset right after ...
... and we were deeply fascinated by their outstanding beauty.

Lanín at dawn as seen from my favorite view along this creek. You can find a Monkey Puzzle Tree on the right side of the image.
Short before sunset, the sallow waters sometimes look like liquid metal.

Free glitter for everyone.
Beside the showcase thing I also would like to invite you to take a look at my newly created
instagram channel and to subscribe to it if you like what you see. … bye for now, see you soon hopefully.

Rain in Tresticklan
Wednesday, 4 November 2015
Ok, I have to admit, this is not about Norwegian landscapes as announced in my last posting, but it’s still about Scandinavian scapes ;) On our way from Austria up to Norway we had to pass through Sweden of course. Although we didn’t spend much time there we decided to stay for two nights at the Tresticklan National Park.
One of the countless greenish-blue but crystal clear streams which run through this mountain areas.
So, I’ll say goodbye for today, in the hope that I can manage to post another entry here soon, showing some more fresh images of the last months. Of course most of them will show scenes from Norway, but there will also be a couple of images I took in Austria. I would be pleased to welcome you here again.

Right at the breaking of dawn this gorgeous little singer raises its inspiring voice.
A lovely South American Grey Fox strolling around between the bushes looking for breakfast.
Of course we didn't experience sunshine every morning. Blue hour on a cloudy day.
Actually I don't know why, but petrels are extremely fascinating to me. Maybe because of their long and slim wings and their ability to maneuver extremely skillfull in heavy winds.

Early flowering friends part I
Friday, 6 May 2016
Yes, I know it‘s been quite a while since my last set of images. But no worries, there‘s a bunch in the pipeline ;) A lot happened during the last month, something has changed and of course I was out enjoying and capturing spring with my camera pretty often. So today I would like to restart with the first little series of early flowering plants from Upper and Lower Austria.
I was very pleased to encounter beared tits for my fisrt time last year.
Two ravens taking a rest as the evening sun breaks through just a little bit.
… and fairytale-like landscapes all over the place.
Although this is one of my favorite images, I have to admit it actually doesn’t work well in the 800px web version. But I’m sure you will manage to find this two battling guys ;)
First snow of the year, first light of the day.
In our opinion, penguins are certainly among the cutest birds on earth ...
This particular morning I found quite a few snails climbing up different stalks, but I don't know what causes this behaviour. So, if you do, let me know.
That's it with my 2016 Austrian pictures. But there are a few more series of Patagonia to come. ... I'm already curious what animals will unexpectedly cross my ways this year :) Let's see. Have a great day everyone!
... and always a great experience to witness the fast changing light conditions in the next morning.
