Winter in Schleswig, Germany by Ken Welch 快樂老虎

Oh, wow, I just now figured out that I took this picture with an iPhone 5s. No wonder the resolution is so horrible! Yet, at the same time, I suppose this shot is rather “artistic”, (i.e. detail doesn’t really matter). And considering that most 500px members use a mobile phone to have a quick look at new uploads, I suppose I’ll be forgiven for the bad quality of this shot. Note that heavy cold-weather fog is responsible for the look of this shot. There’s a church tower in the background, but it’s barely visible due to the weather. 13: 7

Lupinus nootkatensis, or Nootka lupine is a flowering plant that is hard to miss once in Iceland. It has spread so rapidly, that even within Reykjavik city these plants can be seen flowering during June and July months. The Nootka lupine originated on the west coast of North America, and is one of the species from which the garden hybrids are derived. It is tolerant to cool, wet summers and are rigorous self-seeders, thus can often be seen along roadsides and in open meadows. Their long tap roots make transplanting difficult, so sowing seed is preferable. The plant was introduced in Iceland in the first half of the 20th century to combat erosion, speed up land reclamation and help with reforestation. Dense lupine cover and soil fertility can be gained within a relatively short time span, where the growth of the lupine is not limited by droughts. In spite of these good qualities, it has a tendency to become dominant and to colonize already vegetated areas such as dwarf shrub-highlands, where it overtakes the natural flora and threatens biodiversity. The plant has spread from the loose, eroded soil in which it was originally planted and is now found throughout the lowlands of Iceland. Strandarkirkja, Reykjanes. Iceland.
