Photographer’s Note
This rope-lift wheel works fine, even though the conditions up there (top of Mt. Skrzyczne - 1257m - in Beskid Slaski Mts.) are not exactly perfect. There is no cabin to hide in while traveling by this so you spend 20 minutes sitting on a doble chair out in the dumpy cloud and freezing. Fortunately, the ski road from the top is 5,2 km long - long enough to get warm. If you get too cold during the journey up there are a few restaurants to treat you right before you go skiing.
The picture is as it was taken - no changes at all.

Brrrr, it's dammned cold!
An excellent, unusual winter-photo, without trees and ice and snowflakes. But sooo cold - you captured well the atmospher, on the "road" to the top.
The iron traverse works well for the compo, makes me sure not to get lost in the fog.
Very well seen, Tomasz.
A plus smiley for taking your hands from the warm pockets for the photo...

Dobrze kompozycyjnie rozmieszczone elementy wyciągu - mgła i szron sprawiają, że odnosi się wrażenie samotności i porzucenia tego miejsca przez ludzi.
