Heavenly skies

Reflections in the water

Hi my friends,

This was the view I had yesterday at the beach. 

Isn't it gorgeous those big mountains of clouds reflecting in the waters at the beach?

Thank you very much for all your compliments to my featured photograph on FAA

I've appreciated your words here and over there on my facebook site too :)

I wish you a wonderful day!

A lazy afternoon at the beach

A lazy afternoon at the beach

Sailing away to further horizons

Listen to the song of the ocean

Fun in the sun

I do like the ocean wave, actually. I'm born under the sign of Cancer - the sign of the crab - so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such - although not the wide-open and deep seas.
~Anjelica Huston~

Hi my friends,

I'm a "cancer" sign zodiac too... and the words of this quote are made for me exactly! ...*smile*...

We've spent an afternoon at the beach yesterday, had a long walk together and have enjoyed the hot sun on our shoulders and the warm wind in our faces. Looking out to the horizon and listening to the loud splashing waves to the shores are the most relaxing feelings you can experience. 

They are inspiring and opening up your mind.

I just LOVE to be by the ocean.

At the end of the afternoon storm the sun came back out and painted the sky in a brilliant, burning red before she melted into the ocean.

Nach einem starken Nachmittagssturm kam die Sonne wieder zurueck aus ihrem Versteck und verfaerbte den ganzen Himmel ueber uns tiefrot, bevor sie dann im Meer versank.

No, no.... don't worry! There is no storm or Hurrican coming just now over Key West - so far we were really very lucky untill today. This is a older picture of the arriving waves of Hurrican Dennis (in 2005) and it show you how storm surges can be a big fun for some people out there at Whitehead Pier.

Keine Bange, das ist kein aktuelles Hurrican Foto! Wir sind bis heute verschont geblieben von den vielen vorausgesagten Stuermen, gottseidank! Das Bild entstand eine halbe Stunde bevor Hurrican Dennis ueber die Insel fegte, im letzten Jahr. Viele Schaulustige genossen sichtlich die herniederprasselnden hohen Wellen und benutzten die Gelegenheit fuer eine Gratis-Dusche.

The schooner is back in the harbor, the sailes are rolled in, it is waiting for tomorrows new adventures out in the ocean. It's like coming home after a hard working day in a safe place, isn't it?

Man kann schon Vergleiche ziehen wie z.B.: nach getaner Arbeit, obwohl etwas muede, aber trotzdem sehr zufrieden, kommt man heim in den sicheren "Hafen", bevor morgen wieder die Hast und Eile eines taeglichen Lebens beginnt.

You will see every day the same show on this spot: hungry pelicans are fighting for food and surviving. But only the strong can win. Does'nt sounds that familiar for a lot of us humans too, all the daily hard work for food and to survive? Not all of us are lucky enough to be on the sunny site of life!

Ist diese Situation nicht auch fuer viele von uns Menschen bestbekannt und alltaeglich: der taegliche Kampf ums Ueberleben, die harte Arbeit fuers taegliche Brot? Und nur der Starke kann gewinnen! Nicht alle haben das Glueck auf der Sonnenseite des Lebens zu stehen!

If you look closer you will recognize my favorite color again in this photograph - yes it's blue! I call it "Triplets" because they are holding together strong, fighting all the storms, winds and waves out in the Gulf of Mexico.

Unverkennbar wieder ist meine Lieblingsfarbe Blau in diesem Bild. Ich nenne es "Drillinge" weil sie alle drei stark zusammenhalten um dem Wind, dem Sturm und den Wellen weit aussen im Golf zu trotzen.

Blue is my favorite color - and in this picture all you see is blue. It shows you endless space, like looking out into eternity.

Dieses Foto vermittelt fuer mich ein Gefuehl von Ewigkeit. Die Augen schweifen langsam uebers blaue Wasser zum blauen Horizont in der Ferne. Keine Grenzen und keine Enge! Nur Weite und Ruhe - ein sich immer wiederholender Rhytmus: Ewigkeit?!

Stormy clouds were forming at Fort Zachary Taylor while I was waiting for the sunset that never happend. Don't they look like whipped cream on a piece of Key Lime Pie?

Das war ein vergebliches Warten auf einen Sonnenuntergang draussen im Fort Zachary Taylor. Immer mehr dunkle schwarze Wolken zogen auf am Himmel. Sehen sie nicht aus wie Schlagrahm auf einem Stueck Schwarzwaeldertorte? ..."Aber bitte mit Sahne", sang einmal Udo Juergens... et voila!

Someone said: "Once you have sand in your shoes from Key West, you will come back here again". How true is that for you?

This picture reflects the image of "freedom" in every way. It was made on my last Dry Tortugas trip.

Reif fuer die Insel......? Abgeschiedenheit, Ruhe und Erholung waeren garantiert auf dieser kleinen Insel! Ja richtig gelesen: waeren... wenn es nicht ein Naturschutzgebiet (Vogelreservat) waere, draussen auf den Dry Tortugas, 152Km SW von Key West gelegen.

This is one more sunset photo from my archive of "Sunsets in Key West" - and will not be the last one, promise! I love the deep red color from this melting sun into the ocean, it is just breathtaking, isn't it? This picture was made at Fort Zachary Taylor.

Dies ist ein anderes Foto aus meinem Archiv von "Sunsets in Key West" - und es wird bestimmt nicht das Letzte sein! Diese rote Farbe ist absolut echt und nicht manipuliert. Das sind dann immer diese "breathtaking moments" wenn man solch einem Naturschauspiel zuschauen darf.
