A panoramic view of the Alps, as seen from our balcony. The past few days, the “Föhn” wind shared some marvelous mountain views with us.

Sunrise

I take many pictures which I say are of a sunrise, but you’ll rarely see the sun rise. For those who can’t believe my words: here, a full-frontal of the sun. (They say photographers should have the sun from behind, but that’s something I can’t believe.)

Don’t worry: in all probability, the black dots aren’t bad pixels in your LCD screen, they are birds fleeing from the chilly fog.

Isar Valley and Alps

This time of year, the sun and I rise almost simultaneously, and that results sometimes in me taking some air on the balcony.

Another early morning shot. Here the mist is still below us, but often it ascends and covers our house when the sun gets warmer. Views like this never last long.

Actually, this is the same rainbow as #1.

I really hate to be boring, and can’t help it if I am. Last Thursday, there again was one of those rainbows. We’re getting used to them, though not enough to keep my camera in its bag, and not enough to keep the resulting pictures to myself.
If anything, this picture proves that I badly need a new camera with a 20mm lens: I hate cut-off rainbows almost as much as being boring.

When we first came to Munich and got acquainted with the paintings of Carl Rottmann (which isn’t as strange as it seems, as our address was Rottmannstraße, at the time), we couldn’t believe his spectacular skies and cloud formations had a base in reality. Now, of course, we know better.

Last Friday morning. You can’t see much of anything, but I like it.

Icking - The Fog 2

One time watchers of John Carpenter’s “The Fog” haven’t slept well last night...

Sometimes the citizens of Icking have a view, and sometimes not. Sometimes, the view is the lack thereof.

Tonight, we had a full moon hanging over Isar valley...

Heavy Weather

Kees has posted:

Yesterday, there were thunderstorms over Germany, floodings, and hail as big as birds’ eggs. In Icking, however, we only heard some thunder, felt some raindrops, and saw impressive skies.

Clouds over Isar Valley

A wide-angle shot. The mountains seem to be farther away than they actually are.

Photography is all about choices: you can’t have everything ... which makes me sad and angry, but not suicidal –to conclude in a lighter vein! ;-)

The same scenery as always, but I like the detail in this picture (best viewed large).
