Trees, lights and sculptures

Photo of the day

On Friday evening I wandered through the streets of Luxembourg -City in search of the lightening trees and sculptures hidden all over the place. All in all it had an atmosphere of Christmas.

Upside down!

Behind the Cathedral a majestic tree was covered in waves of rainbow colours.

In front of the Cathedral it was summer time as the butterflies were out!

It was a great experience to walk though the city with all these lights…

Finally we walked down to the lower idyllic part of the city to meet the Silvermen and mermaids.

The festival “Arbres & Lumières” takes place every year in Geneva and for the very first time in Luxembourg this year. Those of you in and around Luxembourg should take the opportunity to wander through the streets until October 30. As I said it’s Christmas in October!

Upper Sure Lake

diving

This week-end we had great weather around here. Chilly temperatures but lots of sunshine. All in all a great autumnal week-end. After a couple of dives with OW students I decided to go for a dusk dive with Rocky. A great occasion t o try out my new Woody’s diopter which arrived a couple of days ago. Visibilty was great during the day but had now dropped dramatically to less than a mere meter at times!!!

European perch

Nevertheless the outcome was better than reality. That’s often the case when I take photos here in the lake. While watching the pictures Rocky said that he would have loved to be on the same dive than me. LOL

It really depends on how you are looking at things and very often they look much nicer through the lens.

I love the sand!

Sometimes the greatest encounters are the unexpected ones. We all went on a late afternoon dive in Alona to watch the mandarin fish mating. I spent quite a while lying on old broken corals watching these colourful little fish. The dive then became a night dive and suddenly on the reef I came across this scene. This little yellow fish was hiding in a dark red crinoid. In the end it was my favourite picture of this mandarin fish dive!

I hope you enjoy.

BTW : only 75 days to go to get into a plane with destination Singapore-Manado
