The Bloom on the Quay

The “Quai des fleurs” in Montreux got its name for a reason – but also other parts of the lakeshore with other names have nice flowers. Following is a small selection of 29 of my photos that can also be seen on flickr (there all in the same medium size; here on the blog, I decided to feature some in larger sizes, some as thumbnails only).

On the rainy Thursday, there were at least some breaks in the rain on the afternoon inviting to a photo walk:

A lantern on the town hall balcony – will it enlighten the politicians?

And finally an attempt at HDR tone mapping – photographed through the building (and a dirty window) with exposure correction ±2:
