Lake Chiemsee, the so-called Bavarian Sea, is a popular recreation area southeast of Munich, year-round. But in the early morning or evening hours you can be lucky to enjoy such solitude and tranquillity. Especially in winter. This picture is taken in Chieming, at the east shore of the lake. You can still see big floats of ice on the lake and in the background the Bavarian Alps.

Daß der Chiemsee, das sogenannte Bayerische Meer, ein beliebtes Naherholungsgebiet für München und Oberbayern und eine sehr attraktive Urlaubsregion ist, dürfte wohl allgemein bekannt sein. Und dies das ganze Jahr über. Und dennoch kann man früh morgens oder abends das Glück haben, einen solch herrlichen Anblick für sich ganz alleine geniessen zu dürfen. Ganz besonders jetzt im WInter. Dieses Bild wurde in Chieming aufgenommen am Ostufer des Sees. Auf dem Wasser erkennt man noch die letzten, grossen Eisschollen und links im Hintergrund die Bayerischen Alpen.

I waited until this fellow walking his dogs had moved beyond the bushes, but sadly his two dogs had disappeared over the brow. He was moving fairly fast for a shutter speed of a couple of seconds and if you look closely you can see slight motion blur around his legs
So I guess I'm becoming a bit more psychotic when it comes to trying to get the shots I want. In this particular instance, I found myself on the wrong side of the Merced river as sunset was approaching. Realizing that all of the color and reflections were going to be on the other side, I thought about it for 2 minutes, and then waded in through water that was about 3 feet deep in order to set up my next shot on the opposite side. I thought I might lose a couple of toes from frostbite as the water was FREEZING, but I knew it was my last set of shots for the day, and I can spare a couple of toes if it means gaining a sunset in Yosemite. (I mean....what's a couple toes?)
This particular sunset came together rather quickly and I was glad I took a chance on missing another shot of the Horsetail Falls. While I was taking this particular shot, almost every other camera in the park was pointed at Horsetail which by that point was completely covered in clouds. I gambled and decided that it looked like we might get some color, and just before we lost the sun, the area above the Cathedral Rocks lit up and I spent another 15 minutes shooting while not being able to feel my toes.

I took this image from my front yard. Watching tv from the lounge room Sunday evening i peered out the window to see a sky that had me reaching for the Fuji and bolting to the best position i could find capturing this before it changed. I was limited for time and space given i was in the front yard surrounded by trees and stobie polls but none the less i was pleased with the result. The colours you see here is exactly how it was. No PS needed The Foxtel cable you see running under the tree gives it that suburban feel ;) lol
