my Alpine flowerpage

I like picturing flowers, objects with roots which want dissappear when you just put your camera on a tripod. In the Jura, Alps and other mountain areas plants grow on places where for a human being it's hard to get, no food available and hardly any water. Plants survive bad weather conditions also at strange times during the year. They are much more adapted to there environment then humans. Therefore we have legs !
enjoy my pictures, Sjoerd
