Cave Point County Park, Door County, Wisconsin, USA.  Rocky shoreline of Lake Michigan.

Visible rock is part of the Niagara formation which extends from Wisconsin to Niagara Falls.  Beautiful, small county park surrounded by Whitefish Dunes State Park.  This site known for its rocky shoreline features, the beautiful cold, blue waters and the sunrises over Lake Michigan.

Nikon Z9, 24-70mm f/4 Z at 54mm, 1/160sec, f/11, ISO 200.  Processed in LrC.

PERU 1598

Until today it's not totally clear, how the Inca did manage to fit the huge rocks in Sacsayhuamán in such a perfect way.  All the stones are laid and joined with such delicacy that a rial could not be put in between two of them. Some of these stones are of a width of twelve feet and more than twenty long, others are thicker than a bullock.

Canon EOS 40D, 18 mm, f/8, 1/160 sec, ISO 400

2021 Salzkammergut Mobile 068

A quiet pond with a huge rock in the middle in Upper Austria. I took this photo during a mountain bike tour with my mobile.

2021 Salzkammergut RB 211964

Warm evening light on the Schafberg/Austria. You can reach this mountain via a steam powered cog railway. We went up to celebrate the sun downer.

Canon EOS 7D mark II, 105 mm, f/6.3, 1/320 sec, ISO 100

Ok to have the photo from within the rock?! Well, cave then...

 

View from the Cave Window

This was an amazing view from within a local cave looking out on a tree in early spring. The colors were a bit more yellow due to the early spring foliage - so I adjusted the hue a bit. But what a view!

  • ƒ/8.0
  • 105.0 mm
  • 1/250s
  • ISO 800

I'm tempted to tone down the greens a bit, but struggling with that decision ....
