Bavarian Sunset in the German Alps

"Bavarian Sunset in the German Alps" I managed to catch a fantastic sunset and setting while in Germany this past summer. The barns were scattered around the countryside with this lake calm and reflecting the amazing sunset and Alpenglow from the setting sun. The green grass had nice wildflowers as well which just completed this fantastic setting for me. I could have just sat here for days! I was in Europe quite a bit this past year and headed down to the German Alps in Bavaria. Definitely a must visit place in Germany and Austria! This is near Garmisch, Bayern, Germany. Make a trip to the Zugspitze (Germany's highest mountain peak) and stay at the Hotel Haus Hammersbach in Grainau. Garmisch, Bayern, Germany Captured with the Nikon D810, Nikon 24-70 f/2.8 lens at f/14. ISO 100. I always use a Gitzo carbon fiber tripod even when I travel. This used a variety of exposures and blended using techniques from Mark Metternich's fantastic tutorials on exposure blending and "Blending far Dynamic Range made easy" look them up! He has been a fantastic mentor driving my photography forward!

  • "Eibsee Sunset in the German Alps" Too often photographers are focused looking directly ahead at the big scene. This is one of those times when the scene BEHIND me was MUCH more exciting than a gigantic mountain right in front of me. While shooting sunset at the Eibsee Lake at the Zugspitze in the German Alps near Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the sunset behind me really started to come alive. I looked for the right composition and the curves of the lush green trees along the shore caught my eye. The subtle reflections in the water together with that symphonic feeling of the light concert above me. Wow.... what a feeling. Hopefully this captures some of that beauty to bring back to share. Lesson - Always turn around look around you! Even with a 10,000 foot mountain in front of you (which wasn't bad!), there might be other pictures around you. I'll keep this one. Let me know what YOU think!  — at Zugspitze.
