Description
On my way to my vacation location in Switzerland I made a stop in Interlaken (canton Bern) to visit the people owning the address I was used to visit. They both had some troubles with their health and had adviced me to find another location this time, but I thought it was good to visit them. We had a great time meeting each other in their house in Wilderswil, but just yesterday I learned their house has been flooded by the L

Sorry for those bad news... This shot and its symbolism are both excellent, bravo! Strange, I was driving this morning, near Geneva airport and had my attention caught by exactly the same car (but with a more "normal" color). A Morris, isn't it?

So sorry to hear about the floods and damage it caused. I'm glad your friends got out safely. As for that parked car, not sure what kind or type of car it is? Very interesting. The total picture is very beautiful. Looking forward for your post again. Aloha

Yes, this flood really hit us hard. Many parts of my country are heavily damaged, many people lost their homes and some even their lifes. It will get better soon, we all hope. Thank you for your images from Switzerland, it's always nice them. :)

Very funny contrast between this wonderful car and the phone ! But both with the same colors ;-)))) Sorry to read the story of your friends ins Switzeland. Of course it's terrible everywhere all these floods in the world, and when one sees these images to the TV that made cold in the back !!! But let us be honest... 99% of the people think that that arrive only tothe others ! And as long as you didn't live this kind of thing, or that that touches people whom you love, you don't realize really. But it should well be realized that we all responsible of the climatic changes, and that if the floods, the fires, the earthquakes, is increasingly frequent, it's because our pretty planet sends signals to us. We must interpret them, and do something to save the Nature. We belong to Nature, Nature doesn't belong to us. And instead of crying over our sad fate, we would make better react, but do it quickly, before it's not too late....

they showed on the news here the flooding in Europe. Where my departed mother lived we was always dealing with a flooded yard. luckily the house was on a slighly raised section of the yard and it never got to it. but a block away it was 10' deep. we always ended up with water moscassin snakes. alot od constrast in your capture. is that a phone booth or a computer terminal?

i'm so sorry about your friends, Jan-Carel. :( hard times indeed. i'm glad at least they're safe, but it's hard when your house is ruined and you lose so much. Will their homeowners insurance cover the damage? Is the red house the one they live in? or is this where you were shopping. sorry i'm confused. ;( i LOVE that old car, and it is a nice contrast...old and new! is that a phone booth? sure looks like a big one! Fantastic capture, Jan-Carel!
