Twannbachschlucht

Gallery: LandscapePosted November 20, 2011227 views6 comments

“Twannbachschlucht” is a small gorge just above Lake Bienne. A small creek runs through this gorge. I’ve been visiting this place several times in the last two months. This one is from my second visit there early one morning. I was there too early. When I entered the gorge it was still deepest night and I used a flashlight to hike to this small waterfall. When I finally made it there I still had to wait for another 30 minutes until it was dawning and I could start shooting. Unfortunately the wind was blowing quite steadily on that October morning so some of the leaves are slightly blurred. But I think it’s not too bad.

Beautiful!!! This is really nice Bill. Wonderful light and colors that you captured here. The large view is a real joy to look at with all the wonderful detail. Your long exposure worked out very well. Did you do any tighter shots of this as well? That would be nice to see also if you did. What an awesome place. Excellent work Bill.

An extraordinary shot for me, Bill! All these elements work perfectly together to me. Your composition really keeps my attention and it is a pleasure for me to explore all the details.

I like the strong colors and the water. The large piece of rock in the URC seems a bit of a distraction.

i like this image a lot bill. the horizontal and vertical shapes contrast well with each other. also really like your color processing here.

i wonder what a slight crop off the top, and a bit of cloning on the top yellow flower bunch on the left would look like?
