Alpen Glory
Geroldsee
by Michael

Same procedure as last time. Still going through the archives and still finding images worth processing. Again a first version, tomorrow or at the weekend I'll take a final look and do a print to see if I need to refine.

This year we went to the same place but the light didn't come close to what I saw that morning, one year ago. I will try again next year :-)

cheers

Edit: fixed the saturation a bit. Now it's more natural I think

Going through this years photos. Still sooo many on my harddrive. Here's one from last june, taken during an evening at lake Gerold. No drama in the sky but a nice calm mood. I hope for some snow soon, then I'll return and get this one in winter :-)

have a nice week!

cheers

Gloomy Lake
Geroldsee | Bavaria

It's not often that I process one of my photos as bw. But for this photo bw is just perfect. It was a rainy, misty evening at lake Gerold, one year ago. The last photo I took that evening and now as I went through the archives I found it again. I already thought about bw when taking this shot. There wasn't much color anyway, just light and shadow.

Even if I usually prefer colors, I like this one a lot!

cheers

A beautiful summer evening at lake Gerold in Bavaria.

Frozen Dawn
Geroldsee
by Michael

My favourite view of the Karwendel. Lake Gerold as usual. Since it was so cold that morning I didn't use my filters here but did some normal bracketing and blending. More work than with filters but I didn't want to fumble around with them in the cold.

I also did some focus stacking for the corners. Though the tamron 24-70 is very sharp and also better in the corners than my canon 16-35mm at the same focal length I needed some slight blending since shooting f/8 here.

And speeking of focus stacking. I was guest in a Podcast where we were talking about it.

cheers

A wonderful morning at Geroldsee in the german Alps. I waited many years to capture this scene in such conditions and I'm glad I waited this morning although it first didn't look like it would happen.

Kuhflucht Cascade
Kuhflucht Waterfall
by Michael

The Kuhflucht cascade near Garmisch-Partenkirchen is a waterfall I visit quite often and never come away with satisfying shots. This is the first time I'm at least a little bit satisfied. The reason are the nice green trees in the background which add some beautiful color to this picture. With the grey and brownish rocks alone it was always hard to get a good balance.

Also the flow of water was perfect this time. I also went down into the water for some shots but in the end liked this elevated position best.

Tech: hoya HD Polarizer + Lee 0.9 ND

Gerold Twilight

From last summer. Last light at lake Gerold.

Tech: some multiple exposures needed for dri and focus stacking. Quite some work for a clean result.
