Silberberg revisited

1/2o s F/5.0 ISO 400 EF-S 17-55 at 24mm, polarizer, handheld

This Sunday we went to Srebrna Góra to cycle around the fortress. It was raining nearly all the time but the light for details was good ;). Part of the trail led us along xVII c. mining railway. At one spot a landslide exposed the rock strata

This was a mountainbiking trip so a tripod was out of question - must come back another time with one. IS does great work but it surely has limits...

Last Sunday we went for an afternoon trip to Góry Sowie, to Kalenica Bukowa. This mark caught my eye as a follow up to a series of borderstones between Szrenica and przełęcz Karkonoska. You can see them here
