Lost in Translation
Looking for meanings in words, images and sounds
Black and White in the Mountains
The heights charm us, but the steps do not; with the mountain in our view we love to walk the plains.
– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Very nice contrasts between the black & white here. Good idea to make this B/W, the snow and the clouds makes the mountain stand out.

Cool, this will save me a trip. I hear it is awfully cold and windy over there. Tonight our football team is playing there with Iceland. Poor chaps are stalactites 😉

They play with shorts and vests Canada Goose ? 😮 This country is absolutly magnificent but, indeed, it’s cold, windy and wild… Dangerous volcanos and warm water under the ground… And there aren’t a lot of inhabitants so if you’re lost and if you have nothing to drink or eat… Or to protect your body to the cold… You become a SIGA 😆

The contrast between the mountain and the snow looks beautiful with the cloud shrouded top! The contrast is done so nicely because the sides of the mountain seem velvety black rather than just flat dark. Very nice! We are a little challenged here in Florida for mountain shots…Big Sigh!!
