RE: 📷 The Hoher Ifen [Resolving yesterday's 1 SBD competition]
Congrats @moriartyroue!
The mountain looks even better at summer in my opinion. One of my favorite memories from the Alps is staying in fields of flowers just like where you took the top photo from and identifying all the plants. There's no place where I've seen so many different orchids at the same place.
It must feel pretty surreal to look back at an image you made to celebrate 100 followers; your following has grown so much bigger now.
Best regards from @valth
Hi @valth, agreed, if I have the choice I go there in summer or autumn rather than winter.
I also remember going in the Allgäu during early study times for a botanical field trip. I recall that I gained very interesting insights into sub-alpine plant sociology (ofc everything forgotten since then) but also exhausting identification of countless members of the aster family. And they were all yellow. I reckon orchids would have been more appealing.
I just checked again, I was celebrating my 100 follower milestone back in September 8, '16.
Cheers!
