Auf wiedersehen Marie Jo
Goodbye Marie Jo.
All the mornings we shared,
in good and bad times,
are going to disappear
leaving pale memories behind.
Goodbye, Marie Jo.

Cam peak hours: boat-jams in Cambridge
The river Cam flows under several bridges in Cambridge. A way to explore the city through the parks of its famous colleges is by punt. Punts were cargo boats, nowadays used for tourist leisure.
The Cam river is wide … but at peak hours boat jams are not rare… rent a punt next time you pass by Cambridge!
Taminaschlucht (Tamina gorge): a 15,000 year old walk
West of the Swiss town of Bad Ragaz, the Tamina river carved its 70-meter deep gorge.
After a 4 km long walk the gorge is reached
At its bottom, thermal water (36.5 °C) flows at a rate of 10,000,000 liters per day
The times Dr. Paracelsus cured his patients with week-long bathing into this river are over, still walking this path is a gorgeous experience. Pictures shot in the dark gorge with D800 plus 16-35 mm f/4
Curtains down, curtains up: the reality behind
A house, a pier? Friends or foes?
There is not only water behind …
but the scene is still unclear.
Curtains up: the tour on Halbinsel Au reached its end. Click each picture to enlarge.
