I am new here
Hello to all.

I am a 50year old Hobby Photographer, located in Innsbruck, the Capitol of Tyrol Austria, in the heart of the Alps.
I want to introduce myself with this picture I took yesterday morning 7,00 a.m..

The Moonset was accompanied by an extraordinary wonderful Halo I have never seen before. The little Rock at the right side is called Frau Hitt, it is a town’s landmark from the City of Innsbruck and theme of an old legend.

It feels good to be a part of this interesting forum. I hope my English is understandable.

I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and much success with your Photography.

Welcome Bertl

Walking the dogs last night there was a wonderful and perfect double "ice crystal" rainbow round the moon, but by the time I had got home thin cloud had rolled in and it turned into the normal mushy halo :mad:

I thought at the time no one would believe it would not have been a processed shot :rolleyes:

Hi Berti, another 'Warm welcome' and Happy Christmas. A great 'Christmas cracker' to start with. :toast:

If you get a chance, try Grindelwald iin the beautiful Bernese Oberland of Switzerland, you would have a real corker to photograph, the Eiger :wink:
