Xeis part II

Monday, 16 December 2019

It's time for some more pictures showing the beauty of the Gesäuse National Park region. I'm already looking forward to my upcoming stays and workshops there, since there is still so much left for me to discover. So, I hope you enjoy the pictures.

By the way I would like to invite you to browse through my updated galleries. Although there are still hundreds of images which I couldn't show yet, I decided to removed about 200 images and upload about 250 new ones. I hope all the galleries work properly, because sometimes they seem to stuck a bit. Especially the larger ones, but reloading should help, and I'm working on the solution to fix this issue, of course.

Xeis part II

There's just a small area of this wet meadow, which is left unmown, but this little gem is full of orchids, spiders ...

... and insects like butterflies. Of course, as all of my images this one is also unstaged.

Taken during my autumn workshop this year.

I was pretty exhausted that day and already in my sleeping bag, as I noticed this amazing alpenglow during an actually completely cloudy evening. So I just grabbed my camera without even leaving my cozy bag. Luxury.

Past summer, when the water level is rather low, the Enns River shows its most beautiful colors.

Most of the Gesäuse area is pretty rocky and mainly made of limestone and dolomite.

The river making its way through the steep summits on a calm morning in late summer.

Thin fog mostly creates a great atmosphere.

I just love this dead tree with all its agarics.

Kind of similar to my last two entries, the next two sets also contain images I mainly took around some workshops. This time you can see pictures of Styria's Gesäuse National Park. I led two group workshops there in 2019 in cooperation with the Fotoschule Gesäuse and I will offer three dates in 2020, which can already be found here. But also beside my workshops I had the pleasure to spend some time in this national park, which is shaped by the wild waters of the Enns River and the steep mountains surrounding it.

Just in case, you're wondering about the title of this entry: "Gesäuse" can be pronounced as "Xeis" in Austrian German ;) ... and as always, I hope most of the images speak for themselves, because I just cannot find the time to do longer writings. Although I really would like to do so.

One of the main tributaries of the Enns River.

What a lovely scenery of colors. Candy sunrise above a pretty diverse autumn setting. (Side note: Since authenticity is very important for me when it comes to my images and I actually never remove any objects from my pictures, I would like to let you know, that I made an exception here and stamped out an - actually hardly visible - steel cable of an goods cable lift on the outer left side of the image.)

Lush foliage along the river in late spring, while the summits are still partly covered in snow.

A small montane stream, which offers some photo opportunities in spring, but finally vanishes during summer in most years.

Falling trees are just part of the natural cycle and it's good to see, that there are areas where this is accepted.

Some morning fog finally disappears as the sun comes up behind the massive peaks.

Untouched forests in autumn are always a gorgeous experience.

Summer is a great time for butterflies ...

... and orchids. And this national park provides great locations for both of them.

On this occasion I would like to point out to a little interview Sven Herdt did with me for 4 Nature Photographers. So, if you'd like to read some more (in German), take a look here on their website.
