Lazarow World-Hike-About

It's either up or down sharply. Down and up toward Snezhanko and beyond. Whether a strong showing or not, Snezhanka Tower always appears visible or at least, about (eh!). A touch of color plus green shades of the forest Majestic tower ghosts the scene.

Nestled in the mountains, a wonderful place to 'kick-back' with a hot Nesle and count. There are 3 distinct methods used in the mountains: The lazy approach is to count trees; the intermediate approach is the counting of branches; while the complete idiot will count leaves. Being much smarter than those filling the aforementioned categories, I use a calculator. There's the initial target, Snezhanka Tower, just a hop-skip up the slope. An inside approach to reaching the summit. In the distance, we see 'stars', those better viewed from a planetarium. "Hi, Guys, any recommedations for some good food today?" "Of course, I'm serious...we're both vegetarians...you and we have quite a lot in common." The early snow disappeared after 3 days. If we go down into the woods today, we're sure of a big surprise. Don't believe that's a good path for a hiker...then again, I can be a little cowardly. Then again, if...

  Whenever we visit this region, we have an attraction for 'via ferrata', the climbing of sheer mountain walls using the hand-and-foot metal rungs, making our way to the top. I understand one should have the formal gear which includes ropes, lanyard, helmets and the rest of the equipment. It's a good idea but...    Once again, we took advantage of the deserted area, climbed up-and-back and then continued onward to attain really great, colorful and exquisite sights, further ahead. There's nothing like height to give one a different perspective of the surround, usually a more attractive view than from lower levels. See what you think!  A view from the mountain of what appears artificial coloring. The pond below through the telephoto lense. A small pond to the right. A country lane. We would describe the scene as 'stunning'.   One tree rescues the darkening scene. And yet again, Snezhanka Tower makes an appearance...never far out o...

  Soon after we snapped these photographs, we displayed a few of them in a couple of blogs and thereafter, they seemed to hide in the shadows. We found them again and they are now displayed below. We truly believe the combination of autumn colors, blue water and the thick foliage all shining in good light combine to present very attractively.  When the human world becomes upside-down, chaos reigns; whereas in an upside-down natural world, it remains equally beautiful. A repeat photograph as it really captured our imaginations, inter alia. The rock from where we attained great views of the suburbs, opposite-mountains and lakes. Along came a breeze. A house with a view or 'A House in a View'. Lonely table...chair for one. It's a time when being on one's own might not be lonely. In the alternative, the picture gives one perspective: A chair positioned to allow people not only to sit on it, but to admire the structur...
