Höllental I

Gallery: LandscapePosted October 23, 2011233 views9 comments

Today I decided to explore a new location for me, a valley called Höllental in Lower Austria, in the region of the mountains Schneeberg and Rax at the eastern edge of the Alpes. It was an overcast and foggy afternoon, so I found a special interplay of colors and textures. This is the first of a series from this location that I would like to post here.

Beautiful location, Peter, the soft light is very nice as is the hint of color in the trees. Looks like a great location to explore, what's the fishing like here, looks like a great location for fly fishing too.

Beautiful place and the river just pulls me in. I like the vantage point. I'm assuming this is a bridge.

Really like the point of view, looking downriver, the nice textures in the rocks and the autumn color and fog. All comes together nicely in my opinion.
