So weit sind die bei euch schon? Ich war am Sonntag mit dem Rad unterwegs, unsere brauchen wohl noch eine Woche - wobei die meisten Felder die ich sah hatten sowieso Hochspannungsmasten irgendwo im Bild. Aber ich gehe nächstes WE neuerlich Ausschau halten - muss dann wohl auch ein Messer mitnehmen um eine schöne mit nach Hause zu nehmen.

Aber zum Foto: Der Himmel ist mir fast zu dunkel, sonst ist es klasse. Ich muss mir jetzt endlich Polfilter bestellen.
