10 minutes later

Walgau village on the bottom left. This is a similar photo as this one, only taken around 10 minutes later. Notice the difference in the light and colours a few minutes make at dawn. Which one of the two do you like the most? The video of that morning below: © Epameinondas Stamos 2022.

Yet another waterfall photo

Partnachklamm This is another Partnachklamm photo from my visit last autumn. This photo was also handheld and consequently salvaged by Topaz Sharpen AI. I actually made several photos that I really like on that day, so they will keep on coming in the following weeks. © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

Same location, different photo

Hintersee … again. This is another Hintersee shot, one of the ones I made on my first visit there this autumn. It is from a spot very close to this one and at a similar time, but as you can see, a few meters and the weather make a massive difference. The video of the day is available here: © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

Misty valley

Vorderriss valley in south Bavaria This is a photo of a really beautiful valley near Garmish-Partenkirchen. On its other side it ends up in a beautiful lake called Sylvenstein See. It gets little to no sun in the winter, so it is really cold and moody, which is what I tried to capture with this photo. A video of the day below: © Epameinondas Stamos 2022

Into the mountains

Not a bad spot for horse riding. This is a copy of a photo I saw in Google maps. I visited a few years ago but I mixed up this location with another one. On a later visit though I found the right location and got this shot. Unfortunately it was midday and the light was not optimal. On the other hand, the sky was interesting, so I shouldn’t complain too much. You can also watch a very nice video…

Hintersee

Hintersee islands. I think this is one of the better ways to photograph the Hintersee islands. In this case the light was uninspiring, but unless you can go there again and again and again, the odds are against you. This was actually my third attempt at this location. On the first one I ended up with this shot, which I didn’t like. The second time I made this same shot but I made a mistake and…

Geroldsee

One of the most popular photography spots in South Germany. This is the typical Geroldsee spot that every self respecting photographer needs to visit at least once. This was actually my second visit. On my first visit, this spot was so crowded that I decided to look for other shots, which I posted here, here and here. The best time of day is by far at dawn, but on this occasion I was there much…

Welcome 2024

Krepelschrofen Hütte. Who knows what 2024 will bring. It will be the best year for some, the worse for some others and then it will take its place in history and make room for 2025. All we can do is keep on fighting to make our wishes come true. Happy new year everyone! There is a video of that morning at Krepelschrofen. You can see it below: © Epameinondas Stamos 2022.

Goodbye 2023

Meteora, central Greece. What better way to close 2023 than with a sunset photo taken on the very first day of 2023. It happens to be one of my favorite too. So, happy new year‘s eve everyone! New year wishes will follow in a new post tomorrow. © Epameinondas Stamos 2023.

Between two rock faces

From a recent walk through Partnachklamm. A couple of months ago I Visited Partnachklamm with the family and found the opportunity to make some photos. Unfortunately it was very crowded and there was no room to set up the tripod, so I had to shoot handheld. These photos are not the sharpest I’ve ever made, but with some help from sharpening software they are presentable. This was my second visit…

In the shadow of the big rock

Not sure which monastery this is. Another Meteora photo I made this time last year. I also have a landscape orientation version of the same scene, which I will post at a later date for comparison. © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

Into the sunset

Can you spot my daughters in this picture? Another Hintersee shot, my favorite from that day. I had help finding this one. As I was checking out a different composition, my wife picked up her iPhone and made a shot from this spot. When she showed it to me I realized it was better than the one I was setting up, so I moved to this spot and made the photo. You can see the corresponding video…

Jochberg sunset

Walchensee. Merry Christmas everyone! This is another photo of Walchensee as seen from the Jochberg mountain peak. I have posted a couple of other photos from the same location in the past, here and here. On that day I was lucky enough to get a beautiful sunset on the first try up there. In addition, as I was preparing to film my video, a young man approached me and asked me to film the…

Early morning mist over the valey

Karwendel mountain range on the left. Wetterstein on the right. One of the early morning shots from the Krepelschrofen Hütte, taken about a year ago. Definitely one of the better views you can get in that area within an hour’s easy hike. The video of the day is definitely worth watching! © Epameinondas Stamos 2022

Yellow river

Cost me one pair of shoes this one. I always like misty mountains and rivers leading into them make for a beautiful foreground. In this case the yellow rocks were an added bonus. The video of that day below: © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

Diagonals

8:00 am. The best time of the day to photograph a gorge in Germany. This is a photo of Wimbachklamm in Berchtesgaden. I visited it on a Sunday morning in September, and only stayed for around 20 minutes, but I was impressed by its colours, rock formations and texture and of course by its many small waterfalls. Here is the video of the day as usual: © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

Lakes and mountains

A day in Berchtesgaden, where I start up the mountain on a hike, but an unexpected gear problem veers me off to a lake instead. © Epameinondas Stamos 2023
