Scintillating Sankt Goar-3
The name St or Sankt Goar comes from a hermit come saint that decided to set up camp below a particularly nasty set of rapids in the river.
St Goar tended to those that were foolish enough to get stuck in the rapids and became known as a healer, this news spread and he ended up tending the sick of the area and since he was also a good host to the patients family he received he fed them as well.
The saintly man received enough funding from the nobility and his flock of recovered patients that he had a chapel and hospital soup kitchen of sorts built in place of his camp and became legend and the towns patron Saint.
Sankt Goar’s values must be ingrained into the people of the village they are particularly known on the Rhine as a most hospitable village and a good place to celebrate an occasion.
I took this with my D750 and Tamron SP 24-70mm 2.8 G2 Lens processed in LR, PS luminosity masks and DXO Nik
Disclaimer: Not trying to be realistic in my editing there is enough realism in the world, my style is a mix of painterly and romanticism as well as a work in progress.
