Impression from Lake Constance

[davx]

Hello,

last week-end I met some owner (degu and rabbit owner) at Lake Constance. We visited to a reptile house (little private zoo) and a well known ravine, called "Marienschlucht". Then we stayed at the shore of the lake, took photos, ate nuts and dried fruits, chatted together and enjoyed the weather.

I uploaded some photos to Flickr from the ravine, the shore and the Rhine Falls (in german "Rheinfall"):

I hope you enjoy.

I have been around the Überlinger See a couple of times

Your favorite photo is very powerful. It fairly shouts of history and many, many events. It strikes me as a place of "happenings." Thanks for sharing those with us.

Thanks. It is said that dusk and dawn are the best times for taking photos. This photo is a good prove...
But I also noticed that the best photos mostly I didn't intend to take a special photo or something like that, quite the contrary several times it was just for fun. In contrast this photo here I arranged, took several photos and choised the best one afterwards on my computer:

I really like that one too, especially that the rocks are not IN the center of the photo, and yet are so clearly the central focus of the photo.

[davx]

Yes, that was my intention, I focussed the rocks and "placed" them in the corner. Also I tried to take a photo when a wave in the background occured. There were multiple points I considered. Because the waves were so fast, i took several photos and choiced the one with the best wave.
