Description
After this Hohgant-experience it's good to enjoy a day outdoors without too much ascending and descending. So I invite you to join me on a tour along the Grimselsee, a storage lake at an altitude of 1909 m (6263 ft) where we can come by car. We park the car here and walk on a track close to the lake.
It's still fresh here, ice of melted water that has frozen again, covers the rocks. But soon we'll be in the sun and there it's pretty warm.

oh man...eyes widening...i can't believe these colors!!!! This is how it really looks??? shaking head in amazement! I LOVE the rich blue hues...like the sky is reflected in the snow and ice...awesome! Like Ikarius, I enjoy the rich details here. how the rock is cut in places reminds me a bit of the inside of some caves i've seen, and speaking of caves, i have a feeling there might be caves down below. am i right about this? High-5's Jan-Carel for this magnificent capture of the icy-blue slopes! Hey, you see that hippo? on the left...his head floats on top of the water...see his big dark eye wide open...i think he's curious about you! vote!

This ice which decorates gives us the feeling which the cold goes installer. Exit your cap and mitten. Cheer

I love to see these 'extreme' conditions, which I would never normally encounter! Love the way the water has frozen as it pours over the edge! Great image and well done!

You have captured the ice, and the frost-shattered rocks, Jan-Carel. They are being slowly ground down by the seasonal erosion. I suppose this is a bit like our lives' rough edges. We are opened up slowly but surely, ( sometimes painfully ) by the action of the Water of Life, in order to display our real selves - both the good and the bad.

So interesting textures, must have get cold there in a very short time! Great shot!!!
