The Layers of the Land

This is a winter telephoto (FF equivalent 292mm) taken in 4:3 format and then cropped to make a 16:9 "panorama."

 

It features the Swiss Alps (last layer before the sky).

To me, the result is somewhere between a landscape photo and an example of abstract reality photography.

 

I took the original photo back in 2007. I stumbled across it today (14 December 2020) during a browse of old winter photos, and decided to crop it and post it.

 

Shooting Location: The top of the Belchen (1414 m.o.m.) in Gemany's Black Forest.

In my album: Dan's Landscapes: Southwest Germany.
