Actually I wanted to take a photo of our local pair of white storks which finally returned last week. But when I approached, one of them took off for an evening snack and the other one was getting ready for bed and I only saw the top of its head. I saw a roe deer very close to me though, that was awesome! But the quality of the zoom is so poor it looks like a damn filter.

Not sure if I'm going to show you guys.
So here's a dramatic #sunset instead.

#Sonnenuntergang #cloudPorn #clouds #Wolken #LandscapePhotography #rural #Abendstimmung #nature #Abendsonne

A vibrant sunset over a flat landscape. The sun, a bright orange orb, sits just above the horizon, casting a warm glow. Above it, the sky transitions from deep orange near the horizon to lighter blues higher up, interspersed with streaks and patches of clouds tinged with orange and grey. The dark silhouette of trees and vegetation runs along the bottom edge of the frame, contrasting with the bright sky.

#TrainTrackTuesday: Remember the #abandonedRailway track in the woods I showed you a couple of weeks ago? This photo is from the same line in a different part of #Biederitz. This 500m (0.3mi) #railroadBridge across the Elbe floodplain and the Ehle river has become a listed #bridge and even has its own Wikipedia page (in German). It was built in 1846 and large parts of it are still original. It was closed in 1998 and is now barricaded due to deterioration, but the bridge continues to be a prominent landmark in the area. You can spot it in the background of some of my sunset photos.

A low-angle perspective shows a set of disused railway tracks stretching into the distance. The tracks are made of rusty metal rails laid upon weathered wooden sleepers, many of which are covered in green moss or lichen. The tracks curve slightly to the left as they recede towards the horizon. To the right of the tracks, a rusty metal railing runs alongside, with bare trees and dry, brown fields visible beyond. On the left, similar fields and a few more bare trees are present. The sky above is partly cloudy, with patches of blue visible through the grey and white clouds. The overall scene has a somewhat desolate and abandoned feel.

Good night #Biederitz! Schlaft gut, auch wenn es ne Stunde weniger ist

#sunset #Sonnenuntergang #LandscapePhotography #Abendstimmung #evening #nature #Abendsonne #bareTrees #trees #Bäume #pond #Teich #reflections

A tranquil, wide shot captures a still body of water reflecting bare trees at dusk. The sky transitions from a pale grey-blue on the left to a soft orange and pink on the right horizon. Silhouetted, leafless trees of varying heights line the water's edge, their spindly branches reaching upwards. Their reflections are crisp on the calm water surface. Dry, golden reeds and grasses fringe the foreground and the far bank. In the middle ground, a bridge is visible on the distant land under the fading light. The overall mood is peaceful and slightly melancholic, typical of an early spring evening.

Good night, #Biederitz! Enjoy the rest of your day & schönen #Abend noch!

#sunset #Sonnenuntergang #silhouette #evening #Abendstimmung

A low-angle shot captures a silhouetted landscape at either sunset. The bright, golden sun is positioned slightly off-centre, partially obscured by a thin layer of hazy clouds near the horizon. The sky above transitions from a pale, muted orange near the sun to a soft, greyish-blue higher up. Dominating the foreground are the dark, silhouetted shapes of several trees, varying in height and form. To the left, a tall, dense evergreen tree stands prominently. To the right, a bare deciduous tree with intricate branching is visible, along with another darker, fuller tree at the very edge of the frame. The ground below the trees is also in silhouette, suggesting a gentle slope leading towards the horizon where the sun is setting/rising. The overall mood is tranquil and slightly melancholic, typical of twilight hours.

Guten #Morgen #Biederitz! Have a good #ThickTrunkTuesday with this #bareTree that knows how to stay warm

#tree #Baum #mistletoe #Misteln #frosty #morning

A bare tree, likely deciduous, stands prominently in the centre of the frame against a pale blue, slightly cloudy sky. Clumps of green mistletoe (Viscum album) are densely clustered on its branches. The tree is in an open rural area, in the floodplains to be exact. The foreground shows a grassy slope leading down to a slightly lower area with some dry vegetation. In the middle ground, beyond the tree, is a flat, open landscape with a few other bare trees visible on the horizon. Further back, several houses with light-coloured walls and dark roofs are nestled amongst more trees. The overall impression is of a cold late winter morning.

Look what I found behind the house! I hope it still qualifies for #TrainTrackTuesday, even though this line closed in 1998 and is now mainly used by foxes and roe deer.

A straight, disused railway track stretches into the distance, framed by bare winter trees. The rails are rusty, and the concrete sleepers are overgrown with moss and vegetation. The scene is overcast and grey.

A close-up shot shows a cluster of delicate snowdrop flowers (Galanthus nivalis) in bloom. The flowers have pure white outer petals that droop gracefully, revealing smaller, bell-shaped inner petals marked with a subtle green blotch. Slender, bright green leaves emerge from the base of the flowers, contrasting with the earthy tones of the soil and fallen leaves visible beneath. The scene is bathed in soft, natural light, highlighting the freshness of the early spring blossoms.

A serene landscape shows a low-angle view of a sunset over a rural scene. Tall, dry reeds flank the foreground, framing a small stream. Beyond, a field stretches towards a line of bare trees silhouetted against a pale sky. The sun, a small orange disc, sits just above the horizon, casting a warm glow. The overall mood is peaceful and serene.

#Sonnenuntergang #Biederitz #dusk #LandscapePhotography #BareTrees #nature #twilight #sky #Himmel #Baum #Bäume #tree #trees #silhouette #SunsetLovers

A silhouette of a bare tree against a twilight sky. The sky is a blend of soft blue at the top transitioning to a warm orange glow near the horizon. The tree's branches are intricate and leafless, creating a stark contrast against the colourful backdrop. The horizon is dark, with hints of distant trees and structures visible.

#TrainTrackTuesday is cancelled due to #fog

#Biederitz #Nebel #nebelig #foggy #mist #misty #railway #RailwayTrack #railroad #RailTracks #TrainTrack #TrainTracks #RailRoads

A straight-on shot depicts a railway track disappearing into a thick, enveloping fog. The two parallel rails, made of metal, stretch into the distance, gradually fading into the dense, grey mist. The tracks are set on a bed of dark, coarse gravel, which is visible along the sides and between the rails.
Overhead, thin cables, likely power lines for an electric train, run parallel to the tracks, also disappearing into the fog. The fog itself fills the entire frame, creating a uniform, featureless grey background that obscures any distant scenery.
Two indistinct, dark shapes are visible on either side of the tracks, likely signal posts or other railway infrastructure, further obscured by the fog. The overall atmosphere is one of stillness and isolation, with the fog creating a sense of mystery and limiting visibility to a very short distance.

The #sun just can't be bothered today

#fog #foggy #Nebel #nebelig #Biederitz #trees #branches #BareTrees #overcast #misty #sky #Himmel #FoggyMorning #Bäume

A low-angle shot shows a misty, overcast sky with bare tree branches silhouetted against it. The sky is a uniform, pale grey, suggesting fog or heavy cloud cover. The sun, a faint, small, bright circle, is visible through the mist, positioned roughly in the centre of the frame.
The branches of the trees are dark and spindly, creating a stark contrast against the light background. The main tree branches are in the upper left corner, while smaller branches are visible in the lower right and lower left corners of the image. The overall mood is subdued and atmospheric, with the mist obscuring details and creating a sense of depth and distance.

A scenic outdoor photograph depicting a sunset. The sun, a small orange disc, is positioned just above the horizon, casting a warm glow across the scene. The sky transitions from a pale peach near the horizon to a soft grey at the top. Silhouetted branches of trees frame the top and sides of the image, adding a stark contrast to the soft colours of the sunset. Below the horizon, a darker landscape is visible, with hints of a small pond reflecting the light. The overall impression is one of tranquility and natural beauty, capturing a fleeting moment of dusk.

Guten #Morgen #Biederitz and happy Friday to the world! Have a lovely day

Fun fact: This beautiful lake is right behind our neighbourhood, but the entire shoreline is split into tiny private parcels, all fenced in, so you can't actually go to the water.

Oh well, good for the waterfowl

#morning #MorningWalk #Morgenspaziergang #frosty #cold #Morgensonne #MorningSun #Spaziergang #walk #reflections #lake #See

A landscape shot of a calm lake at sunrise with a rowboat on the shore.
The image shows a tranquil scene with a small, dark rowboat resting upside down on a patch of frosted grass in the foreground. Two bare trees flank the boat, their thin branches reaching upwards. Beyond them, the still water of a lake reflects the soft morning light, creating a mirror-like surface. Tall, dry reeds line the opposite shore, and a distant treeline fades into the horizon under a clear blue sky. The warm light of the rising sun casts a gentle glow over the scene.
