    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:

    These are stunning, Kirsten. Thank you!

    Germany has some gorgeous landscapes! I never realized how beautiful your country is.

    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.

    AMAZING!

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

    No, I'm not. I'm far from being one, I'm just doing it for fun!
