I know I’m living in a very picturesque region and I probably do not appreciate it enough but every time I see this view I get reminded of that fact. I’m literally living just around 4 miles away from where I shot this picture.

The tallest mountain in the background is Mount Pilatus and the lake right below it is Lake Lucerne.

I shot this picture from the balcony of our house shortly after the full-moon showed up above the mountain range:
