Cloud wisps in the February sky. I was able to take this shot on the afternoon of 11.02.2014 from the balcony of my apartment in Leverkusen-Schlebusch. Admittedly, not exactly a landscape photo, but this mood impressed me so much that I definitely wanted to present it here!

View on 30.08.2012 into the Amselgrund near Rathen, immediately after the passage of a severe thunderstorm! Thick, ghostly fog banks are swirling over the entire mountains in the background! (Shot from the passenger steamer  Meissen )

Passage of a thunderstorm front on 30.08.2012 over the Elbe Valley near Bad Schandau, image 6: After the storm had passed, I was actually able to see the rock formation  Locomotive  near the spa town of Rathen  steaming  for the very first time, something I had seen many times before!! ;-)

Passage of a thunderstorm front on 30.08.2012 over the Elbe Valley near Bad Schandau, image 5: Here the storm cell has already crossed the Elbe and is moving eastward towards the Zittau Mountains. The extremely low-hanging and swirling cloud fragments are very clearly visible here!

Passage of a thunderstorm front on 30.08.2012 over the Elbe valley near Bad Schandau, image 4: Here the monster is just crossing the Elbe. Fortunately, the town of Bad Schandau only experienced a few strong gusts of wind and some rain! It looked worse a bit further north, from Königstein downstream along the Elbe! As I could see on the way back, branches and in some places entire trees had broken off here!

Passage of a thunderstorm front on 30.08.2012 over the Elbe Valley near Bad Schandau, image 3: And now the monster is here! With a massive gust front and turbulence that a photo can hardly capture! The entire formation rotated clearly counterclockwise, and the wisps of clouds rising behind the mountain on the left of the image took only a few seconds to reach the cloud base! In the far right background, the heavy rain/hail area can be seen. I believe this sight would have thrilled any  storm chaser ! Until now, I had only seen such images on TV reports from the USA! As I later learned, the same storm cell even produced a tornado over the Zittau Mountains shortly after this shot!!

The following 6 images are intended as a small documentation of the passage of a severe storm over the Elbe Valley in Saxon Switzerland. All shots were taken on 30.08.2012 from the passenger steamer  Meissen  near the town of Bad Schandau. Here is image 1: While it almost becomes  night  in the Elbe Valley due to the approaching thunderstorm, massive cloud towers are already swelling over the Czech Republic, still illuminated by the sun at the upper parts.

Rock formation in the Elbe Valley, just below the spa town of Rathen, photographed on 30.08.2012 from the passenger steamer  Meissen . The somewhat mystical light resulted from the approach of a storm! (see following images!)

View over the town of Bad Schandau into the Elbe Valley, upstream into the Saxon Switzerland/Czech border. Below the mountains visible in the background are the well-known  Schrammsteine . At the  Bad Schandau  landing stage, the Elbe steamer  Kurort Rathen  can be seen. This zoom shot was taken on 23.06.2012 from Bad Schandau station.

The Lichtenhainer Waterfall near Bad Schandau, photographed on 23.06.2012. The image shows it in its normal state, shortly before the half-hour  show flooding.  By the way, this is also the final stop of the popular  Kirnitzschtalbahn ! Unfortunately, the final stop is currently out of service due to flood-related construction work, so the tram only runs up to the preceding stop  Beuthenfall ! A full reopening of the entire route is expected in autumn 2012.

Autumnal view from the riverbank below the Giebichenstein castle ruins through the Saale valley in Halle downstream to the Trotha dam. On the left is the district of Kröllwitz, on the right are the Klausberge, which represent a porphyry formation as a relic from long-past times of volcanic activity. There are beautiful hiking trails here, offering a magnificent view of the Saale valley and Giebichenstein Castle. Also located here is the  Jahn Cave,  which the gymnastics pioneer Friedrich Ludwig Jahn (1778-1852) used around 1800 as a hideout from the authorities; it is accessible via a separate access path and can be visited.
