Frozen Forest near Stein am Rhein

When we drove home for Christmas, we were greeted by a beautiful landscape full of frozen forests – a sight, wild and magical. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my drone with me then, but yesterday I felt drawn out to capture this magic. Just before Stein am Rhein, I spotted frozen treetops on a hill, drove over, and unpacked the drone.

A flight over ice and mist

From above, the forest revealed its full splendor – frozen treetops glittered, wisps of fog hovered just above, a contrast between cold and lightness, rough and delicate. On the ground, old leaves sprinkled spots of color, a dance between frost and autumn that brought the photos to life.

A moment that remains

This spontaneous outing gave me images that capture the magic of the frozen forest – an experience swinging between stillness and color, deeply rooted in the heart.
