This is another photo from a very productive weekend trip to the german alps near Oberstdorf. This is a view towards Rappensee lake with the Rappenseekopf mountain on the left side. We were so lucky with the light that evening. An hour earlier the sky was completely covered with clouds but to the west we could already see the gap. Then we waited and were rewarded with this sweet light.

Füssen on a warm Autumn evening. It is a small town in Bavaria in the foothills of the Alps, and it is mostly known as the gateway to Neuschwanstein Castle.
The dream castle of King Ludwig II, photographed a million times, nevertheless it has not lost its attraction. I had the chance to do it too on a sunny day last autumn. Fortunately I found this nice point of view.
Neuschwanstein gehört heute zu den meistbesuchten Schlössern und Burgen Europas. Rund 1,4 Millionen Menschen jährlich besichtigen "die Burg des Märchenkönigs".
Today Neuschwanstein is one of the most popular of all castles in Europe. Every year 1.4 million people visit "the castle of the fairy-tale king".

It was a raining day when I was there. The rain fog cast some mysterious atmosphere to this famous castle.
Neuschwanstein Castle (English: New Swanstone Castle) is a 19th-century Romanesque Revival palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and as an homage to Richard Wagner.
Neuschwanstein Castle is a nineteenth-century Romanesque Revival palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and as an homage to Richard Wagner. Ludwig paid for the palace out of his personal fortune and by means of extensive borrowing, rather than Bavarian public funds.
The palace was intended as a personal refuge for the reclusive king, but it was opened to the paying public immediately after his death in 1886. Since then more than 61 million people have visited Neuschwanstein Castle. More than 1.3 million people visit annually, with as many as 6,000 per day in the summer. The palace has appeared prominently in several movies and was the inspiration for Disneyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle and later, similar structures.

Can't wait for autumn, when these leaves turn to yellow and gold again. But even at this time this place is worth a photowalk!
Here's another photo from our tour to the Rappensee lake in the german Alps. After shooting sunset the evening before we got up very early to shoot the stars. At such a dark place there were perfect conditions. We could see the milkyway and the lake lay so calm between the mountains.
Although I like those milkyway photos, when I see them from other photographers everytime I start working on my own photos I don't like this artificial look. The milky way is so dominant in many of those photos and also here it would have been a bright blotch in the sky. So I went for a little more creative blending here to get a more natural look. I had 5 shots for noise averaging. Then I had a very long exposure of several minutes where clouds were streaking across the sky. Those I blended to get a nice looking sky. Then I had a birghter exposure which I shoot nearly an hour after taking the first photo. This one I used for foreground detail.
A lot of postprocessing work but I like the result. Hope you do too :-)
