puppy love

At the beginning of summer, the beginning of a story. If long or short, who cares? A story is a story.
[ Outdoor Wednesday ]

the sky beyond

A block of ice is hiding the sky . Behind it thou, no barriers, no limits, since the horizon is always a beginning, and never a stop.

Camera Critters and some snow

 When I took these first two pictures it was already cold enough as to be terribly surprised when this mosquito landed on my left boot. Took a pictures of it just so the people will believe me that I saw a mosquito at this time (and temperature)!

 Yesterday it snowed like in a fairytale and we were already happy for the prospects of visiting the local Advent market in snow & all. Well, till evening a warm storm came and melted almost all of this beautiful snow. The wind blew the whole night - making weird noises and all. Now I see we are going to have a sunny Sunday. So much for a white winter!

Happy Camera Critters day ;)!
ps: and since the discussion on the CC site was about Christmas carols, here is a Romanian classic. Enjoy!

cool Caribbean feeling

And when I say cool, I mean cool - as in freezing, actually! The photo is taken at Mole West, by the Neusiedler lake, in Austria and the title is inspired by the juniors who started laughing when they saw this image. At a first glance it could trick you with the summer feeling, but no, no more warm weather here.
Happy sky watching!

evening calm

Simply sky watching.

duck in the sun

The last warm sunsets. Relax, enjoy, store the light and the warmth for the coming winter. Oh, yeah, and enjoy it with friends: it's much much better!

Happy New Year, Merry Christmas and Happy Sky Watch!

Happy New Year everybody! And Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it today!
I come back to blogging after a long time, but the reality is not giving me too much time for blogging.In the meantime we got a little bit of snow too: not the snow chaos that they report in Europe, but good enough for some nice time at the lake (still not frozen, so no skating...).

Friday musings

Today it really looks like winter is coming soon. I've been swimming and then shopping for pens and pencils: I begin school on Monday :). I lingered a little among the glossy books with Christmas cookies and other yummy recipes. And then, among the ones with Christmas carols and stories. And then, when I was walking home, I saw the first (l.e. decorated) Christmas trees in front of a shop. Should I start singing, like in that coke commercial: holidays are coming? Oh, well, not yet. For now I'll just boil a cup of tea against the fog and show you a wonderful sunset from yesterday, yes, at the lake...

Sky Watch: observation point

It's again that time of the week when I keep asking myself: what would it be - a bench or the sky watching? Again, me lucky - this bench was waiting patiently to become a star on my blog. At lake Neusiedl, of course. Yes, you can call it that I have an obsession with this lake, but I guess it's nicer and better to say that I have a passion for it. Wouldn't you, if you lived next to such beauty?
Happy sky watching! For more beautiful skies, please click the badge below! And for more benches, visit PERBS!
... and totally off topic, but for my friend Wienermädel in Vienna:
Der Apfelkuchen ist schon weg :)), aber ich habe ein Foto gemacht:Ich warte auf meinen Mann und den Junior (hallo, Junior!) nach Hause zu kommen, um ihnen einen neuen Kuchen zu backen :)).

Watery Wednesday: Neusiedlersee - the autumn look

What can be worse for an addicted photographer than to forget the camera charger... like more than 1000 km away? Oh, well... at least I've got my small camera, which is doing a pretty cool job too.

So, for Watery Wednesday I paid a visit to the lake. The light was fantastic, the silence was covering the lake like a huge bell made of glass. The wind was still, and among the clouds I saw a promise for nice ice a little bit later.

Strange contrast to the vivacity of the summer. The Mole West is deserted for a while too. But I guess they all need a break: the lake, the ducks, the Mole...

twilight mood

At lake Neusiedl, this summer. One of the most romantic places to see the sunset. And then enjoy a glass of wine at the Mole West - the trendiest place around.Happy Sky Watching!
