Lauffohr through the mist


It is strange to me that I took this photo within a few minutes of that of the daffodils I posted yesterday. Overhead, the sky was a brilliant blue while a mist clung to the rivers. We've seen this area before, in the Lauffohr post. This is the view from a little higher up. The Reuss comes down about center-right and joins the Aare, which flows in from the right (not visible here). If you floated down the Aare from here, you'd pass Stilli and then Villigen.

Es scheint mir seltsam, dass dieses Foto nur ein paar Minuten nach dem Narzissenfoto von gestern gemacht wurde. Oben war es ganz klar, der Talboden war vom Nebel verhüllt. Wir waren früher hier in Lauffohr, aber das war am Aareufer. Die Reuss ist in der Mitte-rechts und fliesst hier mit der Aare (von rechts, auf dem Bild nicht sichtbar) zussammen.

Lovely. If you’re lucky, this is exactly the kind of good-morning-view you’d get after waking up on a sleeper train through the continent. Eyes not entirely open yet. The landscape still trying to piece it all together after the night. Brings back all sorts of memories. Thanks!

Thank you all for your comments. I missed this group the last time I went through and followed-up on comments.

Jing: Yes, nature is fantastic!

Per: What a wonderful way of describing it!

Ming: Perhaps what I like most is that the reflection from the river is distinctly different from that when there is a thicker layer of fog -- it sort of gives a clue to the fact that the air gets clearer a little higher up.

Just a wonderful photo!
I think I will come back many times for looking at it.
