Today I left work a bit early… and I rushed home, packed my bag with the new D850 and some lenses. Mostly long lenses, the 24-70mm, the 105mm macro, the 70-200mm and finally the 200-500mm. Almost forgot my try-pod…On top I packed my Mavic Air… With a heavy backpack I got my bike out and headed towards the woods around my home. Interestingly enough I spotted some nice coloured trees from the highway, so I thought that most trees got…
The Rigi Last Weekend we left our kids at the Grandparents in Vitznau and spend the night at the Top of the Rigi. The weather was quite stormy, with lots of wind. The days before it was really warm, and a cold front was coming in. With the big change the clouds where fantastic to look at. They drew amazing patterns, which you can see below.

I stopped at the Fruita visitor center to get information about the backcountry road towards Goblin State park. Unfortunately, they did not know too much about the road I was going.
