Pilatus HDR

Pilatus HDR, originally uploaded by the real Caffeamore.

A week ago we hiked from Fräckmündegg to the Top of mount Pilatus. The ascent was quite demanding, the steps were up to 30 cm high. On our lunch break we saw some blueberrries, which made a lovely dessert.

Chamois in Mount Pilatus

When we arrived at the Top, we also saw some chamois. It was the first time I ever saw one out in the Wild. I also shot this picture from the top. There were some paragliders starting from the left, their manoevering looked quite scary and dangerous to me. I felt a lot safer where I stood. What about you? Have you ever been in such a place?

Would you rather go down in a Cable Car or in a Paraglider? Please comment below!

HDR of Urnersee, Flüelen in the foreground: my pictures on your wall!

In February we made a tour from Flüelen along Lake Lucerne to the Tellsplatte, that historic spot where William Tell escaped from his captors on a stormy night, according to the legend. On the way I took this HDR picture. You can buy it and other motifs on my Whitewall page. Check it out!

Beautiful view of Pilatus and Lake Lucerne on a cold winter’ s day

A few days ago I was out and about in Lucerne and took a few pictures of the beautiful scenery. The sun was just disappearing behind the hill when I took the picture. It was very chilly, but the view made up for the cold temperature. There were even people sitting outside having a coffee. Where do you spend an occasional free afternoon? Can you recommend a beautiful route for a sunday stroll? Please comment below!
