MISTY / FOGGY
Season Hunt - Winter Hunt
Before I begin, let me tell you a little bit about the Season Hunt: since the beginning of Autumn 2020, the great Barbara Orenya | @barbara-orenya is hosting a Challenge in the FeelGood Community:
Season Hunt
Every week a new theme is announced which suits to the actual season. At the moment we are having the Winter Hunt and this week's theme is:

Winter comes with snow in our region, not so much in the past years, but still enough to paint the landscape white for a while. I remember when I was young, the snow was often higher than us.

And the Winter comes with misty and foggy valleys as well. I love the views from higher up in the mountains early in the mornings. Many times the valleys are covered by a dense layer of fog or high clouds and especially I love it when the forests are also wintry white.

Living a little bit higher up as others has quite some advantages sometimes. This is Hochosterwitz Castle (Wikipedia) in the middle of Carinthia.

And another view from the mountain I am visiting quite often, because it's quite close to my home and because the views are most times just awesome.

You might remember the views below. I know I have already posted a photo from this morning, but these belong to my favourite photos from this winter. I can't remember that I ever have taken better photos of the Burgruine / Castle Ruins Griffen (Burgruine Griffen - Wikipedia).

The layer of fog has covered the not so pleasing looking land below, because most of the snow had already melted.

A view over the high fog towards the Karawanks mountain range (Wikipedia) offers us a tiny little bit of Alpenglow under an intense pink morning sky.

I hope you're not bored of these views, but the images below show at least the view from another mountain, the mountain Magdalensberg that is a little closer to my home.

And sometimes Mother Nature rewards me with some special colours and cloud formations as you can see in the image below. Another image from this morning is hanging as Gallery print in our livingroom.

At the lake Wörthersee (Wikipedia) the views are completely different from looking down from the mountains. Unfortunately, I don't have taken a lot images from the lake in Winter, most images I have shot in Autumn.

I love this lake most when there's not much to see but the fog. It gives the scene such a calm and peaceful look.

We have had nice weather during the whole week, so I wasn't expecting much fog on the lake this morning, and I was right. The sky was cloudy and there was only a little bit of fog in the distance to see.

So, now you're at the end of my hunt and I do hope you liked what you saw.
