In the late afternoon of July 21, 2007, around 5:00 PM, Lucerne was hit by an extreme heavy rainstorm. I had spent a few hours walking through the Swiss Museum of Transport that day and had just returned to my hotel room to rest a bit. I was awakened by the sound of the rain—and by the screams of people who were caught outside by the rain. (go to image) 

Great bad weather shot. These darn Alps attract rain like a magnet attracts iron!

Thanks for the praise, Stefan. I was initially unsure whether to upload it. The weather in the mountains is often unpredictable. In 1993, I had already experienced a completely rainy vacation in Lucerne, and the weather forecast for this trip wasn’t great either – it was supposed to be changeable. But in fact, the inevitable rain usually only came in the late afternoon or early evening, by which time I was already back from my excursions. I didn’t have to open my umbrella even once; most of the time it was quite sunny while I was out.
Best regards, Thomas

Simply great.

Thank you very much for the compliments. Someone has already created a new category. Thanks for that as well, of course. Now you should also travel to Malta and fill this new category.

Best regards,

Hans.

Hello Philipp,

Please excuse the late reply. As far as I know, you can walk around this "bridge." In a few years, however, that will no longer be possible because stones keep falling down. Then there will only be a rock block in the sea.

Greetings,

Hans.

Between Bray and Greystones, the Wicklow Mountains and the crashing sea leave little room for the traffic routes. June 2001 (go to image) 

Yes, the train journey from Bray to Greystone is impressive, but even though the trains here don't travel fast, the trip passes by far too quickly.
Fortunately, there is a hiking trail...
Best regards

At first, I almost stepped on it, so inconspicuous it lay on the hiking trail, but as I stop and adjust the camera, it turns and retreats - a common European adder?; 21.09.2007 (go to image) 

It's a pity that the image description unfortunately does not indicate in which country and region of the world this photo was taken.

Yes, you are right: it was definitely good to quickly change my stride and not step on it. Most likely, otherwise there would have been significant difficulties in communication when I tried to assure that it happened by accident - ch-ch-ch-ch...
Honestly, it only became really clear to me at home when looking at the picture what kind of encounter I had; it was really gone quickly. - Regards, Volkmar
