Messlingen
It’s time for all play no work! I have booked myself for a long weekend in Messlingen, long being four days. The reason I chose this weekend is that it’s full moon on Tuesday and ever since a botched attempt to shoot the full moon on Flatruet three years ago, I’ve been obsessed to get a good picture of mountains under a full moon. So the plan was to use the first three days for scouting, and then be ready for the big day. What I didn’t plan on is that a big storm would hit Sweden today, so my scouting consisted of a loop in a snow covered mountain forest, the last stretch of the loop in a heavy headwind. The really big winds hit us later in the evening and I can hear the wind blow around the cabin as I write this. It will be interesting to see what the scenery looks like tomorrow… It should get better anyway with a chance of clear skies, so I can start scouting. Actually, I don’t even need clear skies. Just reasonable visibility and a compass and I’m back in the game!
