The high contrast midday sunlight was not the best for regular landscape shots. The ICM treatment was a bit of an improvement on a conventional forest pathway image.
Der Lehnsteig führt durch ein Seitental des Heringsgrundes (Schmilkaer Kessel) von Schmilka (und damit dem Elbtal) auf den Höhenzug zwischen Affensteinen und dem Winterbergmassiv. Der Weg gehört zu den ältesten Pfaden in diesem Teil der Sächsischen Schweiz, er ist schon auf alten Karten aus den 1770er Jahren verzeichnet.

As a photographer, I wanted to capture the quiet beauty and peaceful atmosphere of a sunlit forest path. My goal was to highlight the magical effect of the light on the surroundings and emphasize the natural contrasts of light and shadow. The moment when the sun's rays broke through the dense canopy and illuminated the path was particularly inspiring for me.
Als Fotograf wollte ich die stille Schönheit und die friedvolle Atmosphäre eines sonnendurchfluteten Waldwegs einfangen. Mein Ziel war es, die magische Wirkung des Lichts auf die Umgebung hervorzuheben und die natürlichen Kontraste von Licht und Schatten zu betonen. Der Moment, als die Sonnenstrahlen durch das dichte Blätterdach brachen und den Weg erleuchteten, war für mich besonders inspirierend.
A quiet winter moment beneath the endless vermilion torii gates of Fushimi Inari Taisha. As light snow falls through the forest, the vibrant gates create a rhythmic corridor leading deeper into the sacred mountain. The contrast between the warm vermilion tones and the soft white snow transforms this famous path into a calm and almost timeless scene.

A seven-image Photohike series from Burg Eltz in Germany's Eifel region, created on an early September morning between dense mist, soft sunlight and ancient woodland.
I had come for the castle, hoping to make a photograph that was different from the countless images I had seen before. At the car park, I chose the longer route across the plateau. I kept calculating how much time I had left before the mist would disappear.
Along the way, I photographed quiet paths, morning light and small details that seemed secondary to my destination. By the time I reached the castle, the mist had almost gone. Only later, looking through my photographs at home, did I begin to recognise what I had found along the way.
Months later, I understood something else: my pursuit of a special photograph was not so different from the trophy pictures I had criticised in others.
The accompanying Photohike essay, Die Rechnung, is available in German on photohikers.de.

Eine siebenteilige Photohike-Serie von Burg Eltz in der Eifel, entstanden an einem frühen Septembermorgen zwischen dichtem Nebel, sanftem Morgenlicht und alten Wäldern.
Ich war wegen der Burg gekommen. Ich wollte ein eigenes Bild von einem Motiv schaffen, das schon tausendfach fotografiert worden war. Am Parkplatz entschied ich mich für den langen Weg über die Hochfläche und rechnete weiter, wie viel Zeit mir bis zum Verschwinden des Nebels blieb.
Unterwegs fotografierte ich stille Wege, Morgenlicht und kleine Entdeckungen, die mir zunächst nebensächlich erschienen. Als ich die Burg erreichte, war der Nebel fast verschwunden. Erst beim Sichten der Fotografien zu Hause begann ich zu erkennen, was mir unterwegs gelungen war.
Monate später begriff ich noch etwas anderes: Meine Jagd nach dem besonderen Bild war dem Wunsch nach einem fotografischen Beweis, den ich bei anderen kritisiert hatte, gar nicht so unähnlich.

The mountain forests have in my eyes a far more beautiful flora to offer, than those with us in the flatter country.

Focusing at the trees on the left at f/11 results in sharpness in the focal plane and a moderately blurred background.
This hiking trail near Holzerath follows the route of a Roman road.
A captivating glimpse into the dense, verdant forest near the Valdeinfierno Stream, close to Los Barrios. The sun's rays pierce through the thick canopy and undergrowth, illuminating the ferns and moss-covered branches, creating a play of light and shadow. It's a place where nature truly thrives, offering a sense of peace and wild beauty.

Better think twice before taking this route through the forest by nightfall 😁 Ghost minifigure with some custom edits
Troço dos passadiços de madeira inseridos na Paisagem Protegida das Lagoas de Bertiandos e São Pedro de Arcos, localizada no concelho de Ponte de Lima, distrito de Viana do Castelo. Esta infraestrutura elevada é um elemento técnico fundamental para a gestão do ecoturismo na região, permitindo a circulação de visitantes por meio de zonas sensíveis sem causar a compactação do solo ou danos à vegetação ribeirinha envolvente. Classificada como Zona Húmida de Importância Internacional e integrante da Rede Natura 2000, esta área protegida abrange cerca de 350 hectares e teve a sua origem na dinâmica hidrológica histórica do rio Lima. O sistema de passadiços atravessa um mosaico complexo de habitats, que inclui lagoas permanentes, bosques aluviais dominados por amieiros e salgueiros, e áreas de pastagem. A estrutura visível na fotografia protege o ecossistema pantanoso subjacente, caracterizado por uma densa flora higrófila, essencial para a filtragem natural da água e para o refúgio de diversas espécies de avifauna e anfíbios que encontram neste santuário natural do Norte de Portugal um habitat preservado.
A section of the wooden boardwalks located within the Protected Landscape of the Bertiandos and São Pedro de Arcos Lagoons, situated in the municipality of Ponte de Lima, district of Viana do Castelo. This elevated infrastructure is a key technical element for managing ecotourism in the region, allowing visitors to move through sensitive areas without causing soil compaction or damage to the surrounding riparian vegetation. Classified as a Wetland of International Importance and part of the Natura 2000 Network, this protected area covers approximately 350 hectares and originated from the historical hydrological dynamics of the Lima River. The boardwalk system traverses a complex mosaic of habitats, including permanent lagoons, alluvial forests dominated by alders and willows, and grazing areas. The structure visible in the photograph protects the underlying marsh ecosystem, characterized by dense hygrophilous flora, which is essential for natural water filtration and serves as a refuge for various species of birds and amphibians that find a preserved habitat in this natural sanctuary in northern Portugal.
