Grand ballon (4)

A small series from the summit of the Grand Ballon, in the Vosges mountains (France).
This radar station caught my eye—not as a tourist sight, but as a shape in space.

I tried not to document, but to observe.
The soft curve of the dome, the brutal geometry of the base.
Clouds drifting by like thoughts.
And always: the wind.

Shot with a Fujifilm X-T3, in Classic Chrome and monochrome (Acros + R).
Sometimes sharp and clear, sometimes searching.
A quiet experiment.

From the RNLI station at the North end of Crosby Beach, I moved down to the South end and parked at the Lakeside Leisure Centre. From there, I walked down the path alongside the Marina Lake to the Sand dunes and took a few photos of the former Radar Station.

Pico early light.

Early morning light hits the rocky faces of the majestic Pico's of Madeira. This is the view from around 6,000 feet on the upper slopes of Pico Ruivo looking across towards Pico do Areeiro.

You can make out the Portuguese Air Force Air Defence Radar Station to the left of the highest point. This is by the summit of Pico do Areeiro and forms part of NATO's Air Defence System,

This was taken on my way back down from Pico Ruivo after making it to the top well before sunrise. You can also see one of the many dead trees that provide strange ghostly subjects amongst the lush vegetation. This was a morning that will live long in my memory having climbed up through the clouds in the dark to witness scenes like this one.
