Hello out there!
As I have already told you, Alsace is known for its very European high-quality wines, its gastronomy and its special nature in the vineyards and in the mountains. This time we hiked in the pre-spring in a special area known for its spring orchids. The subsoil here is a gigantic calcareous floe, and we have a calcareous nutrient-poor plant-society under our shoes. But it was still too early in the year and we only found 3 orchid specimens.
We started in a small vine village and hiked up the mountains. Here are some pictures. I did no post processing, then it's more for the pixel peepers

Have fun watching!

Even after 10 years, the SD1 Merrill is a wonderful and suitable instrument for taking pictures that are expressive and unique in terms of color and technology. I don't see any "obsolescence" of the underlying technology here, as has been heavy claimed elsewhere on the forum.

Amadeus21,

A fine set of images with a camera that is as capable now as it was 10 years ago & will very likely still good ten years on.
