These triangles of light and shadow are created by the view to the mountain station called "Rinderhuette" from the chair lift to the "Heimspitz". This space is used by several skiers and boarders because of its higher challenge. The sun added a good border line with the used and unused space by the large shadow.

Diese Dreiecke aus Licht und Schatten entstehen durch den Blick zur Bergstation Rinderhütte aus dem Sessellift zum Heimspitz. Dieses Gebiet wird von vielen Skifahrern und Snowboardern wegen der größeren Schwierigkeit genutzt. Die Sonne fügte eine schöne Trennlinie des benutzten und unbenutzten Bereichs durch den großen Schatten hinzu.

Hello Ulf,

This place seem very popular. The slopes also seem to offer a nice grade of challenge. The two triangles create an interesting contrast of light and shadows plus the two skiers near the right bottom corner add a sense f dimension to this huge landscape. Thanks Ulf.

Hallo Ulf!
Einfallsreich - die Idee mit den Dreiecken! Schwieriges Licht, aber gut beherrscht. Die Dreiteilung des Fotos wirkt wunderschön. Sehr interessant!
Grüße aus der Kur - und ab ins Moor! ,-)

Hallo Ulf,
Hier hast Du wieder mal eine meisterhafte Belichtung geschafft,sehr gut auch der Kontrast und schoene Farben,
Gruesse,
Dimitris.

-:) A great play Ulf, geschickt gesehen Komposition. mit dem Licht/Schatten Spiel.
Technisch ist super so wir können auch die Kleinlichkeiten sehen, wie die Linien auf dem Schnee die ein besonderes Effekt geben.
Der blaue Himmel ist ein starkes plus here.
Schönen Tag.

Hello Ulf.
I like the geometry a lot.
It's an unusual shot, with these ski tracks crossing the fall.
Well done.
Best regards.
Bobo.

Hello Ulf,
A very pleasing study in light and shadow. Well framed to take the dividing line down to the right hand bottom corner. The lovely blue sky adds much to the mood; I also like the patterns formed by the ski lines in the snow. Very good clarity.

Guten Mittag Ulf,

A lot tracks in the snow through the skiers, this gives a very good image.
The two triangles create an interesting contrast of light and shadows plus the two skiers near the right bottom corner add a more dimension to this huge landscape.
Thanks for sharing.

Lieben Gruss,
John.

Hi Ulf

Hi Ulf

Nice idea to bisect the image diagonally, into 2 equal halves. Good exposure level, with no serious oe in the snow highlights. Superb sharpness & high pov. Tfs!

Hi Ulf,
Very nice landscape photo. Great composition and lighting. Good quality, and nice sharp,

Hola Ulf,
Una toma muy bien realizada en su composición y en el manejo de la luz. Me gusta mucho el grafismo de las huellas de los esquíes. Excelentes colores y detalles. Buen día.

Hi Ulf,
Very strong use of the two triangles, one in the appealing sunlight and one in the shadow. Great contrast between them and I really like the effect that all the traces in the snow create. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice! I like all the lighting and shadows. Beautiful pov! TFS

Hello Ulf,
Yes, it is a good title. The two differently lit triangles delimit the plans well. It is a beautiful image of mountain. Cheer.
Good evening

Hi Ulf,
another interesting mountains reportage, nice composition, light and colours. Good work.
Gr., Aleksander

Hallo Ulf
The opposition of the lit and shady parts is good and I like the strong descending diagonal, now I think picture quality could be better. I'd not close the lens so much in broad daylight, I'd go max f/11 or f/13, so you could get a speed above the blur limit that according to your focal length is around 1/35s. This lack of sharpness is especially visible on the left summit.
Have a nice day jY

Hi Ulf,

there is a very nice light contrast and an effective color combination (white, blue and dark blue). I also like the the three triangles and their placement in the frame. Successful composition. Well done!
Regards,
Carlos

Hello Ulf,
nice presentation of this slop that in combination with the contrasted colours make the scene great.The placement of the shot in the two edges of the frame make the capture interesting.Informative your note too.

Hi Ulf,
The play with light and shadow is wonderful and I especially love the textures created by the ski trails. A simple yet effective shot.

Wanda

Hi Ulf!
Yes, I like those two triangles: The white one criss-crossed with the ski-tracks, the bliu one in the shade, and the beautiful blue sky!
Perfect bliss for a ski-lover!
TFS!

Hi Ulf
Well spotted geomertric shapes due to the light and shade... The snow texture is great and the small skiers down there show us the scale...
Good one
Laurent

Hi Ulf,
The ski tracks created a nice texture and interesting formations. I find the way you capture the scene quite dynamic with the sloping ski run. Well composed with good lighting management from the snow glare. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hello Ulf,

I love the beautiful colour contrast here with great details
well done and many thanks for the sharing

Bonsoir,
Belle photo géométrique formée d' une diagonale, de deux triangles, d' un pentagone irrégulier.
Belle vue, jolies couleurs et bonne netteté.
Belles et nombreuses trace laissée par les nombreux skieurs.

Hallo Ulf,
I am very fond of this kind of compo, using the geometric shapes of the landscaped and the game of lights and shadows. This one is very achieved, with the line between the sun light and the shadow on the diagonal and the pattern created on the snow by the ski tracks. The two skiers on the lower corner give a nice sense of scale, allowing to appreciate the great dimension of the slopes.
Um abraço, José.

Hallo Ulf!
Licht und Schatten,wie im wirklichen Leben....
Tolles Bild mit der von der Sonne erleuchteten Seite mit vielen Spuren des Lebesns und ein guter Kontrast mit der dunklen Seite ohne Spuren,da es vielleicht die Zukunft zeigt?!?!?!?!
Für mich ein sehr symbolisches Bild.
Gruß,Leo

Hallo Ulf
A minimalistic compo with nice light/shade contrast and I like the way the slope in FG is creating a diagonal and the sky tracks on it.
Cheers
Marilyn
