no rockroses!

I thought about posting some rockroses (genus Helianthemum) but I guess you must be fed up with them from last year; anyway, the ones which are flowering now (again, yet!) are completely different from those I posted here already, taken from different plants, and even different species in some cases!

But alas, I'll try and post something completely different for a change, alluvial forests! Those of March/Morava river though, not the usual Danube river ones, so indeed something entirely different: March alluvial forests - projected national park - infrared (48°11' N 16°57' E)
This region by the way is projected to become Austrias next national park (there's already a name - March-Thaya-Auen; politicians as well as local population however, unfortunately, are sceptical (see report here - in German).

My hopes are still high that this region once will be a national park, and that its unique nature (what is still left of it) will be preserved.
