Just getting to the top was a feat in it's self. a VERY very .... well just check out the pics and you will see.

Super Full-Moon Pic
That's the best full-moon pic I've ever seen mate! I gonna use it as a screensaver if you don't mind. How long was the exposure? What kind of camera? etc... ANDY

The landscape behind you in the pic is very beautiful. The nighlights of Lucerne likewise. Looking forward to the next news Kim.

Full moon pic
Hey Andy, unfortunetly I only have a simple Panasonic camera - it's a TZ1 but it seems to be doing ok (I've played around with it a bit and am getting used to it's features) The pics were taken with 15-30 second exposures. And no I don't mind at all if you take pics off my blog :-)

Lucerne
Yeah the lights were amazing, you have to see it with your own eyes to really understand...; cameras just don't capture it properly

Love your pic!
Just stunning! I saw your pic by chance and was wondering where it was taken. So I was very surprised to find out it's Switzerland cause I am Swiss. Sometimes we don't have to travel far to find amazing places. Thanks for sharing and have fun on your trip!
