Varied mountain-scapes...
...and as usual the clouds played their complimentary role.
There is no order in the shots below, as I decided to just post the photos randomly. By order I mean that I dumped my usual style of posting the shots in a numerical order, such as 1,2,3 etcetera, and in here I just scrambled the posts as I drew them from my file. They are all unpublished and fresh from the mill. Please let me know if you like this style.
I took the shots at several locations that are not too far from our home, in one trip, as we were out on borrowed time due to having to attend a meeting soon, and I was impressed by the results of this outing. Even if we are only going to the shop, or out to a meeting or appointment, or to one of our workplaces, we use the opportunities for taking photos in nature. We don't waste the trip on business only.
That early icy mountain shows what it thinks of the winter here :)
And this shot below was not any warmer either.
It looks like I was above the mountains, but instead I stood on the hill with my zoom.
Now look at that, at last a warm sunshine shot a bit later in the day.
A pair of Pied Crows (Corvus albus) made their way over the face of the mountain.
I face a severe struggle to concentrate lately, and it can take me hours to do a job that I used to do in a few minutes. Really, I am not exaggerating here. The problem is also that I type with only one finger, and during the typing process I press the wrong buttons on the keyboard. I cannot tell you how many times I am halfway or almost finished with the post when I strike a wrong button and then the whole thing disappears.
I don't know if this also happens with you, and if not then you can consider yourself still young and fresh, as I am old and dry. At least my brain feels like it is old and dry. Lol. But you know what, I don't let it bother me, as I have ever so slowly over time started to accept the tricks of the aging game, and there are many of them. The secret is to just embrace whatever happens and then to move on.
Such is life.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the story.

Breathtaking view
Wow, what an incredible view. I saw the mountain so high that even the clouds were slipping over it, and I really love some of the mountain landscape shots you took—they're truly breathtakingly beautiful.
Thank you and I appreciate your description of the post. Those mountain landscapes always hold me in a transfixed state of mind.

That is a really cool effect watching those clouds pour over the mountains. The almost look like avalanches coming down the gorges in the mountain face, very beautiful shots. It really does give you an idea as to just how heavy clouds really are. They may look white and fluffy but the immense amount of water in them is extraordinarily heavy! Fortunately, it's a gas phase or fog could drown us! lol
I love that first shot with the trees in the foreground, it adds a lot of contrast to the mountain and the clouds. Nicely done!
And it couldn't be complete without some birds in there, it is a @papilloncharity post after all! Those pied crows are out there enjoying the breeze. They may be loud but crow sure are smart creatures! As always a tip, trying to rebuild my HSBI balance a bit too and I'm sure you could use some too! Have a great weekend!
We had advance warning that a cold front will land, and it did indeed with tons of water. Whenever I know that a cold front is on its way, then I pop out to get shots of the mountains as you saw in here. Normally it's fog first, then mist, and then clear until later in the day, as just after sunset, the sky gets covered with dark clouds.
Thank you and I like to get some trees in the shots, as they always add character to the views.
It is what it is with the birds as they form a big part of my life, and I appreciate your gifts.
Stay well.
