Oh my! Stefan - our sunny boy :-)
But don't drink too much of that wine while photographing, so the pictures don't come out crooked :-) :-)
Well spotted!
Cheers, Schumi

Hello Jeanny,
undeniably, between pixel and 1/250 the pleasant moments of a photo tour...

Hello Tobias,
there are computer correction programs for crooked images...

Stefan

Well, for example, I hardly use any computer programs to optimize my images; almost everything I have is original!
It was already good last Friday that I only went to the Gäubodenfest in Straubing after taking photos :-), because after 6 Maß beers, you just can't keep photographing!

Hello everyone,
@Tobias: well, we have to defend Stefan. The picture is of course a photomontage, he wouldn't have managed such a large glass. ☺
@Stefan: For us, there were only beautiful moments on this 2nd of August: the unique Marchés Folkloriques, the peaceful boat trip, the excellent lunch, and the digestion-promoting walk afterwards. And all of this in wonderful weather: simply perfect!
Greetings from Luxembourg.

Hello everyone,
I really like this photomontage. A great idea that made me laugh a lot. It reflects a wonderful day we spent together.
Best regards, Christine

I already noticed that it was a photomontage! When I first saw the image in small size, I thought the glass was standing on a table with the Stafen sitting in the background, but when I clicked on it, I recognized it by the glass itself, because otherwise the background would have to look different! But still well done!

My opinion: "Well then, cheers to the beauty of nature, to the fun of photography, and to traveling together. The photo montage is really well done.

Good evening Christine,
a wonderful picture from a beautiful area and, as it looks, we can already look forward to this vintage. ☺
Greetings from Luxembourg.

Hello Hans and Jeanny,
I just had to photograph this play of colors in nature. It is only this clear on days following heavy rainfall, like the one the day before.
By the way, the vintage looks very promising.
Best regards, Christine
Stefan Kilian 20.8.2008 16:28 20.8.2008 16:28
What a beautiful view. If I understand correctly, it’s not that far from you, right? In any case, this is also a postcard-worthy scene. My compliments.
Best regards, Stefan Kilian

Good evening Stefan,
Thank you for the comment. This hiking trail is only 15 kilometers from Blonay and is easily accessible by train.
Best regards, Christine

Hello you two,
Congratulations on this wonderful photo. Here again, the fascinating beauty of nature is revealed.

Good evening Marina,
thank you for the positive review. I must admit that it was not easy to photograph this floral splendor, as the many fine stamens are somewhat restless not only for the eye but also for the camera's autofocus.
Greetings from Luxembourg.

Singing crows? Probably a nice cat's music...

Hello Jeanny,
a very good close-up of a leek (Allium). These buds are still very young, making a definitive identification difficult. I would (without guarantee) guess garlic, Allium sativum.
Best regards, Karl

Hello Karl,
nice that there is someone again at landschaftsfotos.eu who knows (almost) everything.
Thank you.

Hello Jeanny,
you’re making me quite embarrassed.
I know terribly little and constantly have to look things up in books. Let’s just agree that the books know (almost) everything and I am merely a user of this book knowledge.
Otherwise, the comment would really be a bit embarrassing for me.
Still, thank you for the well-intentioned praise.
Best regards, Karl

Good morning Karl,
don't be so modest. I did write "almost" everything.
No one knows everything, but it is important to know where to find it, for example in books. Most people don't even make the effort.
Best regards
Jeanny

Hello Jeanny,
a beautiful high-contrast shot of the Shore Bindweed, also called Shore Fence Bindweed.
The plant has several other rather amusing names in different regions due to its growth habit, such as Schlangenwenda (Swabian Alb), Bettseicherli (Geislingen, Göppingen), Regeblume (Switzerland, here with the belief that tearing off the flowers brings rain), or several terms in East Frisia: Düfels-Neigarn [Devil’s Sewing Thread], Theeköpke [Teacup] or Pisspott; in Graubünden, Heizenberg it is called parvenglas; since the flower only opens during the day, Dagblome in Emden, etc.
Best regards, Karl

Hello Karl,
those are funny names for this beautiful and tough blossom. In the gravel bed of the tracks, there was otherwise nothing living to be found here. That's why I believe it survived the weed-killing train.
Thank you for the positive rating and the interesting explanations.
Best regards
Jeanny

Hello Enrico,
this shot cost me quite a few nerves. It was pretty windy that day and the cornflowers kept moving, making it almost impossible to photograph a single one.
Thank you for the kind words.
Jeanny

Hello Hans,
a very well-executed shot. I can understand the effort it took to photograph the bloom like this. Even a slight breeze can ruin the photo in a fraction of the exposure time.
I sometimes use strong sheets as windbreaks. During my plant observations, I always carry laminated (waterproof) quadrant cards, which help as wind protection in light wind.
Best regards, Karl

Hello Jeanny and Hans,
it's good that a train only comes every two hours. That way you have enough time for such beautiful landscape shots.
Best regards, Christine

Good morning Christine,
at this spot there is a bit more train traffic, but I let the train be. Watching the grey herons was far more interesting, and such an opportunity doesn't come every day.
I'm glad you like the pictures.
Greetings from Luxembourg

Once again, wonderful pictures from Ireland, Marina. Just to my taste.

Hello Marina,
beautiful shot, but the best thing about Ireland, at least if you have to be in Dublin, is hidden behind your back: Howth and the Cliff Walk. Just 10 kilometers from the capital, weary travelers can experience Ireland here on slopes covered with gorse yellow bushes, on seagull-droppings-stained cliffs of the big city...
By the way, easily accessible by DART even without a rental car.
Best regards
Stefan and Christine
Marina Frintrop 13.7.2008 15:33 13.7.2008 15:33
Thank you very much for your kind comments.
Christine, I took the photo on the road to Howth Head. I really liked the view of the harbor of Howth and the offshore islands (Ireland's Eye and Lambay Island), but I agree with you... the view over Dublin Bay on the other side is a dream. I was surprised that the immediate surroundings of Dublin are so charming.
Best regards, Marina

Magnificent bloom, Manfred.
