Spot the difference
Two pics,
Same time,
Same place,
Spot the difference.
Swiss Alps, Berner Oberland, Jungfrau Region, 11AM, 2Apr2021–the difference? 2000 meters above sea level.
Swiss Alps, Berner Oberland, Jungfrau Region, 11AM, 2Apr2021–the difference? 600 meters above sea level.
Isn’t that amazing?
What are we sure about in this life?
The weather?
The coming of spring?
Taxes?
Death?
Daily concerns often are little more than a good ha-ha.
Jungfrau in cloud
Clouds, almost like lingerie on a quiet, sunny winter day–the level of mystery–what is really there that I can’t see? I want to see more.
Lord Byron saw it in storm and had quite a different take, documented in his poem, ‘Manfred‘.
The view south toward the Jungfrau massif from the Interlaken region. Real estate agents might call this the million dollar view.
Strangers in town
I remember my parents advising me when I was a kid–‘don’t talk to strangers’. Anybody else raised like that?
Presence and Absence
The presence and absence of sunlight…
…on earth, water and air.
Trees Telling Forests Things
Can’t tell the forest from the trees. Or is it the other way around–can’t tell the trees from the forest. Can’t tell.
Can’t tell the trees from the trunk and branches.
Can’t tell the trunk and branches from the leaves.
Can’t tell the leaves from the needles and cones.
Can’t tell anything…I’m lost…and happy…don’t tell.
Nature
…plants, animals, humans…
…shelter…and all are in the landscape.
First Snow–not quite
It’s that time of year for snow–mid-November, northern hemisphere, in highlands ski country, though the weather is not quite ready to play.
…but we can fix that…fire up the snow machines!
Autumn Mysteries Revealed…
…in the mountains…in one hour.
Autumn leaves are like forty years of a happy marriage.
The future is always unseen, uncertain, filled with anxiety.
Died and gone to heaven–all is clear.
These images revealed themselves over 15 minutes during an 800 meter climb on a cogwheel train in the Bernese Oberland Swiss Alps.
