Catching the Cranberries in full red splendour, is one of the wonders of hiking in the low mountains. In Italy they use a funny sieve like thing to harvest them.
These two pictures are so amazingly beautiful that, having never seen anything quite like them, I personally have difficulty in believing that the subjects of them could really exist! 😀
Many thanks :-)
But, come on David, you're living in Austria, if I remember correctly?
It would be easy to get your mountain boots on and see this for yourself.
It's not so far from Vienna to the mountains.
Send me a PM if you want to join us on one of the next tours :-)
It's actually a bit of a sad story. The county went out of power for a few weeks. I don't know what happened exactly, but this person's house burnt to the ground while everyone's power was out. I assume an errant fire source, but never heard the facts fully. Thankfully the lady and her kids were ok, but the whole hood was very lucky the whole neighborhood didn't go up with how close all the homes are. They demolished the building all the way the other day. This is all that remains in the lot. Cement and these gas lines(?).
Not my normal subject { obviously 😀 } using a borrowed 500mm PF from a friend from my camera club, he had a week with my Z9 , and will be joining the Nikon mirrorless fold soon

The route home from the Alps took us via the country around Macon, a favourite patch of vine clad slopes and dramatic ciffs. The two rocks of Solutre and Vergisson make for a great circular hike on a fine autumn day.
Oh dear, I got that totally wrong. I thought they were copper pipes jammed into the ground for a firework display. I sometimes forget that we are the only country that 'celebrates' Guy Fawkes night.
Hi Jim. Not your 'normal' subject?! You've been a stranger around this thread for so long we forget what your normal subjects are 😉
Good shot this, like a ground to air missile.
