Landscape shots from recent photo trips

This is actually my favourite time of the year when everything outside looks so colorful and fresh, and the trees are in blossom or have these light green young leaves... And often you have these very special light effects when it's sunny and raining at the same time....

Yesterday it was especially great, the light was so perfect and the photos turned out so well and clear that I thouht I never made better ones. But then - no idea how this could ever happen - I accidently deleted them from my camera before I had them downloaded to my computer!!! Needless to say, I was more than frustrated and disappointed.

I started another try today and drove the same tour, hoping the results would be the same. They weren't, but with the help of my Photopaint software, I could at least give some of the photos an acceptable look. But the ones I took yesterday were much better, and I'm so sad that I have lost them!!

It's a really beautiful landscape here, especially in the springtime, that's why I would like to share them with you:

Oh yes, it is actually. You tend to forget about that when you live here permanently, but we have every kind of landscape from the sea shores in the north to the high mountains of the Alps in the South. I'm living in the middle, and here we have all these hills with woods and fields, little villages, and the rivers. :)

Kirsten

AMAZING!

Those photos look like something out of a fairy tale. I just sent the link to a friend, are you a professional photographer?

Thanks! :)

Kirsten

well your photos are beautiful and you are very good at your hobby!

Those are gorgeous Kristen as usual.
I love the last one in my opinion the most.

Stunning, magnificent, breathtaking, gorgeous are some of the words that already been used and apply to the scenery you have so kindly shared with us. I too have to say that your photography skills are on par with those of a professional. Most of my ancesters came from Germany so your photos are a wonderful opportunity to see *my roots*. Thank you.

You should go pro! Those are STUNNING!! I have never seen anyone take pictures like yours! You have set a standard here that nobody else can match! I LOVE your pictures!... That one of the slaughter house is still my favorite... That one is just hauntingly beautiful!
