Bebenhausen at a winter's night 2015-02-02

Almost full moon, new snow and a clear sky since quite a while. Reason enough to take a camera and tripod and make a detour to Bebenhausen on the way back home from Tübingen.

Oops! During the exposure tripod head and camera suddenly startet to rotate. Luckily, they've waited until half of the exposure time had passed creating this effect.

view from Roßberg tower in winter 2015-01-24

Winter forest on the way to Roßberg tower. The mountains of the Schwäbische Alb were covered in hazy fog that saturday. When getting closer, however, the winter landscape presented itself.

View from Roßberg tower towards the northwest. The plateau, Roßfeld, is covered with snow.
The tower is a landmark and located on the Roßberg, a mountain (869 m) at the edge of the Schwäbische Alb.

View of Gönningen, Achalm and Georgenberg mountains at the horizon on the right, indicating the position of the city of Reutlingen.
