It was Spring up in the mountains of Switzerland, where everything, including the grass and leaves seemed new or renewed. . . . . . . . . .
…and in my phantasy I can hear the birds chirping and the cows going “mooooooh”

beautiful!
Thank you Flora!
How beautiful…. one mentions the name Switzerland and immediately one pictures snow… this is a lovely photo showing it’s not always white in Switzerland…
Yes, I too have actually changed my mindset after visitng Switzerland. Thank you bulldogsturf!
Very serene! Good interpretation of renewal.
Thank you friendlytm!
thank you for stopping by.
My pleasure!
Here in Australia it never gets that green. Isn’t it beautiful! Carol.
Hi Carol, I think the green is so fresh, it seems to suggest that the leaves and grass have just been renewed after the wintry season. Regards, Michael
Awesome, it renews one’s spirit too at this sight.
Glad that you find that it renews the spirit! Regards, Michael
I would love to use it as my screen saver! Lovely scenery! Best, simple cherishes.
Hi simplecherishes, by all means, you can use my photo as a screen saver. I believe the photo is soothing to the eyes! Michael
Thank you!!
This is such beautiful photo – the greens like velvet. I wouldn’t mind spending a long weekend there, but not any longer – need neighbors.
A Norwegian friend told me that Norway is the greenest country in the world … with 54 shades of green and Ireland with only 52. I think it’s a Norwegian that has been counting. I think you have got at least 51 shades of green in this shot.
Hi Viveka, how do you count the different shades of green? I think the picture is soothing to the eyes. I wish my readers can rest their eyes for a couple of minutes while gazing at the screen. Regards, Michael
I don’t know who the Norwegian’s counted the shades of green??? Must be digital, don’t know if they even have counted – your photo is so amazingly soft – beautiful, Michael
Thanks for the response, Viveka.
Can’t help but be renewed at a place like that…nice shot
Yes, we need to be renewed and refreshed, every day if possible. Thanks for the kind comment!
soothing to the eyes,
greens in deep, shallow and light,
life’s alive again.
Hahaha… by just looking at that photo, I am able to write a haiku. Thanks for the post, Michael! :)
One reader pointed out I have 51 shades of green! In any case, as you say, the green picture is soothing to the eyes! Regards, Michael
I was amazed at how clean it was, everywhere you go in Switzerland. I got to go to a farm in the Alps. Gorgeous way to live, I could do it in a heart beat. I loved your photo!
You are right. The other place which is very clean is Japan; but I like the Swiss Alps more than the Japanese mountains. Thank you for your kind words!
So green! Looks just amazing.
Thank you Lisa!
Postcard perfect.
Thank you for the kind words!
Ah, the many shades of green! You really know how to frame nature’s compositions! http://ohtheplaceswesee.com
Hi Rusha, I love the very fresh green color, hope you also like that too. Thanks for the perusal and the kind words! Michael
Mike, you have a lot of very nice travel photography here. Retired too.
Hi Ron, many thanks for the kind comment. Hope you are also enjoying your retirement phase of life. Regards, Michael
