Frozen Things / Gefrorene Sachen

Johann Piber@johannpiber (75)2404d

What kind of winter is it that you have to look for frost, apart from the fact that there is no snow at all?

Welch ein Winter ist das, in dem man den Frost suchen muss, abgesehen, dass Schnee überhaupt nicht vorhanden ist?

Of course there is frost and ice all around, and I have already been able to take some nice photos.

Unfortunately, it is always relatively warm and beautiful for days, so that the little frost that grows overnight only stays a little longer in shady areas when there is no sunshine.

Natürlich gibt es Frost und Eis rundherum, und ich habe auch schon einige schöne Fotos machen können.

Leider ist es immer wieder tagelang relativ warm und schön, so dass der wenige Frost, der über Nacht entsteht, nur in schattigen Bereichen etwas länger bleibt, wenn dort kein Sonnenschein hingelangt.

Winter-Time

Late lies the wintry sun a-bed,
A frosty, fiery sleepy-head;
Blinks but an hour or two; and then,
A blood-red orange, sets again.

Before the stars have left the skies,
At morning in the dark I rise;
And shivering in my nakedness,
By the cold candle, bathe and dress,

Close by the jolly fire I sit
To warm my frozen bones a bit;
Or with a reindeer-sled, explore
The colder countries round the door.

When to go out, my nurse doth wrap
Me in my comforter and cap;
The cold wind burns my face, and blows
Its frosty pepper up my nose.

Black are my steps on silver sod;
Thick blows my frosty breath abroad;
And tree and house, and hill and lake,
Are frosted like a wedding-cake.

^{by Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)}

Actually, I wanted to take pictures of ice and frost with the macro lens when I had my walk at the reservoir this morning, but after taking the first photo with the 70-200mm, I completely forgot about the macro.

But the macro shoot will be done as soon as possible.

Eigentlich wollte ich heute morgen bei meinem Spaziergang am Stausee Eis und Frost mit dem Makroobjektiv fotografieren, aber nachdem ich das erste Foto mit dem 70-200mm gemacht hatte, habe ich komplett auf das Makro vergessen.

Das Makroshooting wird aber so schnell als möglich nachgeholt.

Winterlied

Der Winter hat mit kalter Hand
Die Pappel abgelaubt,
Und hat das grüne Maigewand
Der armen Flur geraubt;
Hat Blümchen, blau und rot und weiß,
Begraben unter Schnee und Eis.

Doch, liebe Blümchen, hoffet nicht
Von mir ein Sterbelied.
Ich weiß ein holdes Angesicht,
Worauf ihr alle blüht.
Blau ist des Augensternes Rund,
Die Stirne weiß, und rot der Mund.

Was kümmert mich die Nachtigall,
Im aufgeblühten Hain?
Mein Liebchen trillert hundertmal
So süß und silberrein;
Ihr Atem ist, wie Frühlingsluft,
Erfüllt mit Hyazinthenduft.

Voll für den Mund, und würzereich,
Und allerfrischend ist,
Der purpurroten Erdbeer' gleich,
Der Kuß, den sie mir küßt. –
O Mai, was frag' ich viel nach dir?
Der Frühling lebt und webt in ihr.

^{von Gottfried August Bürger (1747-1794)}

Holy smokes! That last photos is fantastic! I would make a huge one of those to put on a wall. With photos that good you don't need a macro lens do you?

The weather is very disappointing. Here in England we get used to winter without snow or ice. To be honest I didn't expect that in the Alps. It looks like climate warming is happening everywhere. At least you managed to get some really nice photos of ice. Have a good evening @johannpiber with some tasty !BEER and !COFFEEA
@thomasthewolf(64)· 2404d
Bei uns ist dieses Jahr wieder weit und breit kein Eis zu sehen. Schön, dass es wenigsten von dir ein paar Bilder gibt. Sonst bekäme ich hier gar nicht mit, dass es Winter ist.
@bashadow(70)· 2404d

Does this look like a Winter photo to you?

Not really, it does not even look that cold. We are maybe going to get a warm up this week, at least maybe get out of the negative numbers by mid week, -10F while slightly warmer than the last couple mornings, is still fricken cold.

It has been an odd winter in Alaska where we live.
