Photographer’s Note

A viewing platform just below the peak of Gaislachkogl (Oetztaler Alpen, 3,058 m), at the exit of a gondola-lift. Just another element of 'civilzation' in the Alps...

Of course, the ski lift itself is useful, but what about this platform? Built just to enable people take nice holiday photos? Why do we always try to put something (a building, a tower, a platform, a mountain hut) on almost every peak?

Nobody has marked this note useful

Hi Wojciech,
wonderful and scary view! perspective is nice.　

but please watch the whiteness(brightness) of the snow. that looks gray, not white.
snow confuses a auto exposure sensor of camera.
your camera thought "it's too bright! i adjust to moderately".
Because the snow is really white and bright.

ok, when you the exposure compensation is set to plus 1 and 1.7, the brightness of the snow is expressible.

thank you,
Yuo

P.S.
please check the workshop :)
