Mountains and Contrails

While in the mountains last weekend, I could not help but notice the white contrails of airplanes in the crystal clear blue sky.

Alpine Panorama

Last weekend I spent some time in the mountains. The weather was unusually perfect for this time of the year: clear blue sky, sunshine, a slight breeze. I really should have brought my DSLR, but I was too lazy to carry so much weight, so the G9 was my tool of choice.

Image quality is a compromise, of course, but more than good enough for web use or up to medium print size. Sometimes, it is better to have a good time than to get the ultimate in image quality. ;-)

I added some pictures I took while in the mountains with friends this summer.

You can find more mountain images in the gallery.

In case you are wondering: no, the photos where not all taken in the same location or even on the same trip. ;-)

Summer on the Tegernsee

I spent some time near the Tegernsee. The sky was a typical Bavarian blue with some white clouds, the sun was shining, and the water was perfect.
