Drevsjö Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

View to a lake near Drevsjö.

Our tour begins near the village of Drevsjö and travels through a marshy landscape that lies at 650 meters over sea level. This lake system is home to many beavers. In winter time the lake is frozen and covered by snow. With our sledges, each with 6 huskies, we cross the lake and tour through the hills and forest around Drevsjö.

Hello Achim,

A well composed winter scene, and the snow is so well exposed with no OE at all!
Post processing seems to be very skillful and the finer details are well preserved through the process...
Always interesting to look at tracks in the snow and try to figure out what was there..!

Greetings,

Hallo Achim!
Ein super Bild von dieser tollen Winterlandschaft, das mir sowohl farblich als auch vom Aufbau sehr gut gefällt. An der Qualität ist eigentlich auch gar nichts zu bemängeln, wirklich super für ein eingescanntes Foto. Dazu ist die Tiefe hier super und mir gefällt dein point of view sehr.
Beste Grüße,
Jonas

Hallo Achim! Na ich weiss nicht recht, ich bin eigentlich mehr in Sommerstimmung, aber andererseits geht es ums Fotografieren und somit spielt die Saison keine Rolle und zu guter Letzt ist immer irgendwo Winter oder Sommer, oder der Schnee bleibt so oder so liegen. Was ich hier besonders mag ist das Blasse, eigentlich hat es kaum Farbe, und das finde ich besonders spannend. Die Spuren im Schnee geben einen huebschen Vordergrund. Gute Arbeit! Barbara.

Hi Achim.

That snow, which seems not to finish is excellent! The depth is also lovely for sure!

Bonjour Achim,
après une journée de canicule comme je viens de la connaitre, voici un refraichissement servi sur un plateau.
Une vieille photo mais dont les qualités ont taversé les années.
Un excellent cadrage avec les arbres repoussés à gauche.
Une bonne capture des blancs.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hallo Achim. Was gefällt mir an diesem Motiv besonders? Es ist der Schnee! Die feinen Licht-Schatten-Verläufe, die Spuren, die Plastizität, das Licht, - wirklich phantastisch. Viele Grüße, Wolfgang.

Hello Achim,

Nice this winter landscape and quite interesting with the play of bright white tones broken by the contrast put on the trees.
You should have enjoy a lot with this sledge tour.

Yves.

axiotea (15933) 2008-07-29 6:01

Hello Achim
I wish I could be there to enjoy this beautiful place! There is a good sense of depth and I think it was not easy but the white of the snow is well exposed! I also like the contrast!
Cheers
Marilyn

Hallo Achim,
ich weiß es von meiner eigenen Erfahrung wie schwierig es ist, weiß auf weiß zu zeichnen. Zum Glück haben die Lichter und Schatten Dir geholfen einen strukturierten Vordergrund zu schaffen. Dass man die schneebedeckten Berge im Hintergrund eher nur ahnen kann, passt hervorragend zur Stimmung des Bildes.
Viele Grüße
Laszlo

Hi Achim. I was happy to see our little bit of snow the other week but this is far more and very beautiful. Well captured with good detail. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good weekend, Paul.

siolaw (25702) 2008-08-01 14:06

Hi Achim,
That is a fine winter landscape picture with nice snow smooth texture and good light management. The animal trails add interest to the FG, i like the off centering of the trees, and superb mountainous BG.
A good candidate for B7W too...
Greetings

Hello Achim,
Yesterday I saw this picture on the opening page of TE.
It's a very beautiful winter landscape. I like to see the tracks in the snow and the contrast between the snowy part and the dark trees.
Best regards, Paul
