Hohenpeißenberg

When we have guests, we often make a trip to Hohenpeißenberg, a small mountain with a church, several restaurants, and a glorious view of the surroundings. The much bigger mountains, on the horizon, we never saw clearer.

A panoramic view of the Alps, as seen from our balcony. The past few days, the “Föhn” wind shared some marvelous mountain views with us.

I take many pictures which I say are of a sunrise, but you’ll rarely see the sun rise. For those who can’t believe my words: here, a full-frontal of the sun. (They say photographers should have the sun from behind, but that’s something I can’t believe.) Don’t worry: in all probability, the black dots aren’t bad pixels in your LCD screen, they are birds fleeing from the chilly fog.

Another early morning shot. Here the mist is still below us, but often it ascends and covers our house when the sun gets warmer. Views like this never last long.

This time of year, the sun and I rise almost simultaneously, and that results sometimes in me taking some air on the balcony.

When we first came to Munich and got acquainted with the paintings of Carl Rottmann (which isn’t as strange as it seems, as our address was Rottmannstraße, at the time), we couldn’t believe his spectacular skies and cloud formations had a base in reality. Now, of course, we know better.

Last Friday morning. You can’t see much of anything, but I like it.

Tonight, we had a full moon hanging over Isar valley...

A wide-angle shot. The mountains seem to be farther away than they actually are. Photography is all about choices: you can’t have everything ... which makes me sad and angry, but not suicidal –to conclude in a lighter vein! ;-)

The same scenery as always, but I like the lack of detail in this picture (best viewed as a thumbnail).

One beautiful day last week, I took my camera to work. Surprisingly it wasn’t stolen, so I had the opportunity to dismount on my way home and shoot some pictures. The mountains are basically the same as always, but not seen from the usual balcony perspective. The sun stood low, and the light was beautiful.
