Sunset over Vogelsang


Three major rivers come together near us in a region that's called das Wasserschloss (the Wikipedia entry is in German): the Aare, the Reuss and the Limmat. I've already mentioned the Aare in this blog (1, 2). Today's photo is of the Limmat, as it flows past Vogelsang. Upstream lie Baden and Zürich among other places.

An hour from home


Weggis (vekis) is a resort town on the Vierwaldstättersee (literally lake of the four forest states, better known as Lake Lucerne in English). There are not so many tourists at this time of year except perhaps for the local ones like us. It had been snowing that morning so I wasn't expecting many photo opportunities. Happily, I was wrong! This view of Mount Pilatus appeared as we were walking along the lake.

January sunset


The day began cloudy and rainy, but by mid afternoon, the clouds had started to break up and some blue sky was visible. We took the opportunity to go for a walk and I took the opportunity to try out some shots.
