As I won't be able to compile the video the next day, I decided to just share the photos already. I played around a lot with foregrounds .. and honestly deleted most of them - but I also learned a lot.
We did this trail ... many years ago and we always wanted to revisit it. (of course I felt challenged to take better photos as well)
I hope you enjoy the photo as much as I did walking the trail.
11 years ago I lost my brother to opiates. He was the typical (American) teenage opiate addict starting with Dr. prescribed pharmaceuticals quickly becoming terribly addicted leading him into the needles of the streets. Loosing my brother that way rocked me, it still rocks me as this battle still continues horribly in the US. In his honor I brought him to the top of Mt Baker. I share to spread hope knowing there is healing in nature. Be kind to yourself. #natureheals#grief#mountains#healing
#Laphoto2023dujour n°154 : Lever du soleil lors d'une randonnée au pied de l'Arnarvatn gelé dans le système volcanique de Krysuvik le 24 décembre dernier à midi.
In 2022 I had an incredible trip up to #Yukon#Canada. I spent two weeks hiking and camping around the Northern Artic, getting rained on, hailed on, snowed on, and of course had a few moments of sun too.
While there, I made a collection of #monochrome images to capture the cloud patterns on the peaks. These are some favorites.
One of the photos from our hike through the #gleirschklamm near #Scharnitz . I finalized the #photos already - yet I'm struggling a bit with video-or-not.
Anyways, I like how the stream winds through the photo. I had to work a bit on the rock on the left so that it doesn't just look like a huge boring block.
I hope you feel both the strong stream but also the calm atmosphere of the moment.
A fantastic end to the day on the Achadas da Cruz Promenade. I took this photo using my favorite film photography setup 🥰 ~ Achadas da Cruz, Madeira, Portugal 🇵🇹
Gear:
• Yashica TL Electro X ITS (Japan, ~1971)
• Yashica Yashinon-DS 50 mm f/1.7
• Kodak Professional Portra 400/36 (treated as ISO 200)
Years ago, I struggled through a challenging 40km mountain bike loop that left me exhausted and discouraged. This time, I revisited the same route with better preparation, fitness, and a new bike. The result was a surprising and rewarding experience. Check out the video to see how it went!
The weather forecast today was "a lot of rain". In the morning it had changed to "rain from 3pm".so we decided to do a small hike on the local #blomberg.
In the photos you see a couple of impressions from our 3h activity. It was really the best decision to go out.
We just returned, had a coffee are relaxing on the couch and the rain and thunder just started rolling over us.
#SilentSunday near #LikaLodge : forest strawberries , May blossoms , young trees & wild flowers : overwhelm of tastes, touch & fragrances : almost unbearable happiness!
My stay in Villach turned out to be wonderful :) I’ve napped a lot; the weather improved significantly: sunny & warm till 8PM; my hotel was a small #spa resort on the #lake - with swans! & view of #mountains! So I’ve fed the #swans this morning (radish leaves & “napolitanke”) ! & made it to the #train! Thanks #OEBB ! #InterRail#rest#day#vacation#NapMinistry
