Hahah, I never thought of it that way! SQUEAL!!!!!

Iris, your pictures are great! I especially like the frozen water falling out of the tree trunk. I've never seen anything like that before. Good stuff! I'm glad you had a good time

 

[Seasons_Of_Destruction]

[The Moth God]

I miss California. Some nice places.

God I'm glad I live here. Kings Canyon, Sequoia, Yosemite, Dinky Creek etc.. Fucking BEAUTIFUL Mountain wilderness!

 

[Iris]

Iris! awesome pictures!
I'm so happy to hear you got away from the stress and went to a beautiful place like the Belgian Ardness!

Those pictures made me sad..... I have been to Trois Ponts before...
my uncle owns a house in Basse Bodeux, and I really miss the charm of that place and good ol' Europa


The weather looks crazy though! I was there in the summet time, so its really nice to see it white and frozen!
geweldig Iris! :Spin:

Merci Beaucoup, Madame.
Je spreekt aardig Nederlands

Mother Nature plays the strings of silence there, it mesmerized me.
I slipped out on frozen snow -down hill was steep- and fell, due to that given fact. I was lucky to land on my knees, otherwise i would have kissed the ground! The woods of Coo play with gravity, the landscape is rough and going hill up and hill down, made me dizzy sometimes

But having lunch on top of a hill with hot tea and croissants, enjoying the silence and all of a sudden, a bird of prey cries out and i may watch it fly through the valley? makes it all worth it.
I first went to the Ardennes in 1993, to Han Sur Lesse and going back now, made me remember. I love it there. And it's good to know, you've been there too. It's exactly as you say, it's the charm of that place.

 

[Reminiscence]

Aren't the Netherlands completely flat?

 

[iris@work]

yes, Holland is flat.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

yes, Holland is flat.

Oh Iris, thats a lie! There is like... one hill near the Belgium border

 

[Iris]

The Three landing's point in Vaals is a perky titt' compared to the Ardennes!
And it's officially the highest geographic point of The Netherlands. Alaaf! 323 meters above sealevel.
(that point in the ardennes is at 694 meters above sealevel)
Therefor, Holland is flat! Geez.. at this:

Admit it. Holland is pretty flat, hm? :Smokedev:

BUMP!

Nine days in Austria, by IvS.

 

[Bacchante]

Beautiful pictures, Spongy!

The forest is a very special place...especially old growth forests.
I always feel humbled walking among something so ancient.

Btw, I failed to notice how old this thread was, but anyway...

 

[Ryan VH]

[wildfyr]

BUMP!

THE BUTTERFLY SAILED ON THE BREEZE

That's an awesome shot! It sort of looks like a cecropia moth but I'm not sure if they're a native species in Europe. Nice capture.

 

[Captain Beard]

No photos of Iris though

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I really hate insects in "real life" but on pictures they look so amazing... those pictures are amazing iris, thanks for bumping this thread up, I love it ...
