Additional wings part III

Monday, 26 February 2018

Feel free to take a look at my last little 2017 hommage to our feathered friends. The images have mainly been taken in the Traun-Danube Wetlands of Upper Austria and in the areas of the Neusiedlersee-Seewinkel National Park in Burgenland, already in April. Just a few more strolling-around-impressions without any great background story, actually.

Europe's by far largest woodpecker on one of these very few old, dead tree trunks which can be found in our commercial forests.

Same species, different approach.

One of the most fascination native birds, the Hoopoe, in a small grove at Lake Neusiedl.

Another spectacular resident of the Neusiedlersee-Seewinkel National Park in gorgeous morning light.

Strong winds and white waters.

One more long exposure of a Cormorant in flight in the areas of the Traun-Danube Wetlands.

Mute Swan at early dusk.

One of those rare planned images. This is exactely the composition I had in my mind and it worked out already on the second day, but finally it didn't turn out as appealing as I though.

Way too big feet on a small branch.
Again, I hope you enjoyed it and you're also eager for some fresh stuff of the upcoming spring season. Finally there will be only one more series of mixed images of the past year, which will contain captures of mostly mammals and other none-bird animals.

Naturfotografie Workshop für EinsteigerInnen am 03. März 2018 - Zauber der Frühblüher

Es ist zweifellos immer eine ganz besondere Freude, wenn die ersten Frühlingswildblumen etwas Farbe in die Natur zurückbringen und ihre Köpfchen den nun schon wesentlich wärmeren Sonnenstrahlen entgegenstrecken. So werden wir uns diesen ersten kleinen Frühlingsboten im Umkreis der Stadt Enns an diesem Tag genauer widmen und gemeinsam in entspannter Atmosphäre versuchen die zarten Motive behutsam fotografisch in Szene zu setzen und die Umsetzungen ausführlich besprechen.

Alle Details und notwendigen Informationen sind hier als ausführliche PDF-Beschreibung zu finden. Ich freue mich über Anmeldungen per E-Mail an photo@rupertkogler.com. Selbstverständlich bin ich gerne jederzeit für weitere Fragen gerne erreichbar.

Ich hoffe wir sehen uns!

Additional foliages part III

Tuesday, 20 February 2018

After the final set of my 2017 Austrian landscape left-overs, here's the last set of the additional plants(cape) impressions. Not a moment too soon before the next generation of plants and foliages finally comes to life. Especially the first picture of this entry seems very pleasant to me, because it shows what lies ahead of us already during the next two months or so. Lush fresh greens. Can't wait for everything to pop up :)

When the sun in the woods comes up in spring ...

... and goes down in fall ;)

As far as I can remember I only experienced this phenomenon, simply called "Glory", once before. This time I was lucky enough to have my camera with my.

What a delightful morning it was at this summer meadow, nearby a lake, surrounded by mountains.

The very last rays of the fading sun break through the dense summer foliage of the woods.

Just a mobile phone snapshot showing a slice of all the tiny montane beauties which can be found higher up in the mountains.

Monochrome trunks in a golden surrounding.

I love mystic forests like this. And I love them even more in mystic conditions like this.

Right at the edge between sunny skies and thick fog the light can be pretty exciting.
Of course, some of the early flowering wildlflowers, like Snowdrops, Common Hepaticas, Hellebores, Common Lungwort, Squills, and so on can already be found out there today. So don't hesitate to take a closer look at the forest floor ;)
