Another wonderful series, Joe. What road in number 3? Or was it taken from the road?

Thank you Barbara, I am glad you like my Swiss mountains and German/Polish town. Sorry about the description in #3, I guess I wasn't accurate enough, the meadow and creek were alongside the road, I just stepped out a few feet to take the picture. The Sustenpass road leads over the Susten pass from the main valley in the canton Uri to the Bernese Oberland and is bordered by some fantastic mountain scenery.

Another beautiful set of images, first class as always. Since you take so many architectural shots, have you ever considered a tilt-shift lens?

Thank you Susan, it is a joy to do this for people that are so appreciating! Joe

Thank you Ours for your kind comment. As to the tilt-shift lens, not really, I am a simple guy, love to travel light and carry only one lens, hate the idea of changing lenses, having the wrong lens on, getting more dust into the camera and all that - I try the best I can in adjusting the perspective in post.

A wonderful series of wonderful pictures. Seeing them made the "wanderlust" in my bones active again. I especially enjoyed seeing the happy cows in the Alpine pictures, also looking at one years firewood supply reminded me of different times. Thank you for posting, it was a treat!
