In picturesque Klettgau of the canton of Schaffhausen, Hallau, a little wine village, representing the largest connected winegrowing area in German-speaking Switzerland.
St. Moritz, the mountain church, stands proudly high above the vineyards, it is an eye-catching landmark for the whole of the Klettgau valley, shown in the first part of this footage.
The church was built in 1491, extensively renovated from 1976 to 1978.
Another wine producing area is located between Beringen and Loehningen, displayed in the second part of the footage.
Last but not least the St. Othmar's church, high above the winegrowing hill of the village of Wilchingen, which was built in 1676 and shown in the third and final part of the footage.
The footage shows the situation on Sunday October 2nd during a break in rain.
It is to be hoped that farmers will not have to suffer from crop failures.
The spoken language can change from one village to the next on.
A few hundred meters decide whether French or Swiss German will be spoken when entering a Restaurant or a shop.
Prehistoric pile-dwelling have been found in the area of Môtier, the site is part of the World Heritage Site.
Traces of the rampart 600 meters long can still be seen, which dated back to the Celtic period, about 124 BC.
This fortified village, also called an oppidum, was destroyed by fire by the Celts themselves in 58 BC, before their migration to Gaul.
A part of one gateway was reconstructed as would have been the original.
In other words, the place is worth a visit not only for its beautiful scenery, but also for its historical significance.
The place is about 1400 metres above sea level with great views of the mountainous landscape and part of a well known skiing area in wintertime.
It is a reservoir lake with a volume of about 125'00 cubic meters covering an area of more than five square kilometer.
With its height of about 930 meters above sea level, it is the highest reservoir in Germany and also the largest lake in the Black Forest.
It takes about 25 minutes to the summit restaurant at 2168 meters above sea level.
One of the action events available at the top is the Cliff Walk by Tissot, stunning views of Eiger Northface included.
Hotel Faulhorn (2681 meters) is also visible. The history of this Hotel started in the year 1830 with its construction, offering a breathtaking 360 degrees panorama but can only be reached with physical effort.
Worth to mention as well is the Schreckhorn which is part of the panorama. It is the highest peak located in the canton of Berne.
The Schreckhorn is the northernmost Alpine 4000-er in Europe.
A clear day with good visibility must surely offer a magnificent view.
Wat Khao Phra is built slightly elevated at the foot of a hill on the shore of the lake, offering a beautiful view of the reservoir.

The current trip led to Sub Lek Reservoir with its floating restaurants on the west banks.
Not far from the dam the Suwan Khiri Pidok Temple is located at the foot of a cliff. Inside the temple there are some caves carved into the rocks with exhibition rooms and altars for the usual Buddhist prayers.
A little further away is the Lopburi Peacock Temple, various buildings are spread over a large area. Over a dozen living peacocks are omnipresent and confirm the temples name, not only with their visual presence but also by their loud yelling.

All images were taken in manual mode from my balcony between 5.30 pm and 6.45 pm.
Non of the images is post processed, all are so called out-of-the-box.
The entire collection contains more than a hundred single exposures.
It was not intend to create a time-lapse video since the camera was handheld and not part of a fix installation... possibly another project.
When I heard this song the very first time, I exactly knew, one day it's gonna be used for a "directors cut", regardless the fact that I normally prefer instrumental music for all of my drone footage.

At present it is a large laterite base measering about 64 meters in width and length and 20 meters in hight.
It's architecture and decoration suggests that Khao Klang Nok was constructed under the influence of Dvaravati Buddhism.
The monument was constructed around 8th to 9th century A.D.
The slightly tilted pagoda dates back to the 16th century.
Fuer diejenigen, die uns noch nie besucht haben mag dieses Video einen kleinen Einblick in unser Zuhause geben, die Anderen werden feststellen, dass sich das "Gruenzeugs", seit ihrem letzten Besuch, meinerseit mit viel koerperlichen Einsatz und Schweiss, bestens entwickelt hat.
Die Aufnahmen sind mit einer GoPro 4 Silver Edition entstanden, die leider die Kruemmung von Vertikalen und des Horizontes nicht automatisch korrigiert.
Die grossen gelben Fruechte sind uebrigens keine Durian, die mag ich gar nicht, es handelt sich um Jackfruits.
Due to geological faults and hilly terrain, there are very few direct connecting roads.
Yesterday we tackled another path over the hills, which can only be managed on dry ground with off road vehicles.
Some places are quite steep and surely support no grip during the rainy season.
Long story short, relax and enjoy a summary of this challenging trip I recorded with my dash cam.
Original sound is almost muted since the rear and front distance sensors provided almost all the time annoying beep-alert notifications.
The place is part of a large dam in the district of Nong Phai, Phetchabun province.
For most of the sequences "sports mode" was on to resist the wind gusts easier, but drained the battery much faster.
A much-visited temple on weekends, due to the size of the complex one should plan enough time when visiting.
The eel-shaped formation extends over a length of more than 20 km and heights up to 300 meters.
Wet season has started but still a lot more rain is required to fill all the empty ponds.
