Joerg - I guess the same can be said of America. We have a great variety here - a life time could be spent in one area of our country and that is how many photographers here make their mark. I felt the same in the Stubai. SO much to do and see and your mountain huts make it relatively accessible. And I was only in Tyrol. While I had only 1 whack at locations during my travels, I imagine spending more time in these areas would provide infinite photographic opportunities. I so enjoyed the Austrian culture as well as the landscape. It seems that Austrians really know how to incorporate the magnificent landscape into their culture.

Very very cool spot and great motion. Might have offset the falls and peak so they were not so centered. Leaves the left side a bit empty. Panning a bit to the right and adjusting comp would take peak to the left of center and a bit stronger. That being said great light and find!!

This is just wonderful and even unknown to me as an Austrian. Great to see shots from home taken by you. This one is on my list now.

I do like it, and you've done a great job with a challenging exposure and blend. However like Aaron I feel it's a little unbalanced left to right.

A convincing presentation of this alpine scene to me, Harry. I admire the stunning dynamics of the falls, accentuated by the strong diagonals. The clouds on the summits are spot on in my opinion.

Another fine comp Harry. Wow, only one week and so many killer shots? What the heck am I doing wrong? I don't have as many keepers of the Austrian Alps from 34 years (of life)...

Didl - I was there just over 2 weeks. In adition to the Stubai, I made it over Hohe Tauern for some day hikes. That is one heck of a park. I think there are some real treasures there, unfortunately I only had a chance to see most of them on a topo map! I'll post a couple from that area in a bit. I was lucky to get a nice mix of weather, not just blue sky days.

I tried a slight crop on the left to address the empty feeling comments on that side. Feels a little tight to me. Thanks for the feedback. I do have a horizontal exposure but somewhat different lighting that my be more balanced in that respect.

The water motion is perfect and I really like how the peak disappears in the clouds. Very nice image Harry.

Your trek lining up the elements really paid off! Excellent comp, shutter speed, exposures and blend. I think that cloud is actually an asset for this image.

The beauty and genius of a work of art may be reconceived, though its first material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the composer; but when the last individual of a race of living beings breathes no more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be again. William Beebe, 1906 |
