With warmer temperature currently being experienced, only in the single digits and rain intermittently washing away the snow, Scharmützelsee is slowly returning to its totally liquid state, but I was fortunate to arrive the day before the weather changed. I was lucky to be able to take more photos of the ice, before it changed. The first series of photos of Scharmützelsee. These are a sample, and like the other series, all photos can be found on my Facebook Fanpage, log in required.
Scharmützelsee is a large lake located in the eastern area of Germany, and is surrounded with a series of residences, resort and vacation homes and hotels, and small villages. Some places are more closely populated, but the majority of the spaces remain “au natural.” My photos travel from Petersdorf, (‘dorf’ meaning village in German), Bad Saarow, Pieskow, Diensdorf and Radlow, and from mid-morning to sundown.
I again walked myself to a pain, can’t resist keeping going to forward to find the perfect spot for photomaking.

Beautiful photographs! You have a very good eye. These deserve to be published by Rizzoli or Flammarion.
The only thing I can say is, I am so small, I don’t know of such things. I just try to share what I can of what I’ve seen to others.

These photos are incredibly stunning Red! What a magnificent and powerful experience it must have been to walk along the ice. I’ll write soon but I just wanted to let you know I feel so very inspired by these images, and honored that the music I sent you brought you back to this moment.
Thanks, yes, it was almost a once in a lifetime event. Glad you enjoyed…
