Liquid Light


Liquid Light (FinePix S5Pro, 1/200s @ ISO 400; f/22, 28 mm DX)

The Schwarzachen creek near Laubau, Ruhpolding in backlight. I was on my way back to the car from a little hike into the middle one of the three Kraxenbach valleys (german side of Sonntagshorn peak) and the sun was already long at half past 6 in the evening.

The title "Liquid Light" just popped up in my head instantly as I saw the sunlight glistening on the water. At first I thought it would be futile to try and make a photo in such a strong backlight situation.

And in addition to that, coming out of the shade of the trees and making some hand-held photos of Toni jumping around and being funny, I still had the camera at ISO400 - argh! Its a challenge sometimes to stay calm and focus on the sheer technical aspects during the excitement of a beautiful scenery and photo occasion.
