Rigi Scheidegg Photo

Photographer’s Note

Taken during a walk in the Rigi Mountain. The stretch from Rigi Kulm to Rigi Scheidegg offers a panoramic view of the lakes and surrounding mountains but on this day the floating clouds have affected visibility somewhat. The path is well marked and it is on the former mountain railway track. It also includes a passage through an old railway tunnel with no light but assisted by natural light at the beginning and end. The middle of tunnel can be a bit scary since you can see nothing but only for a very short distance. An easy, pleasant, and scenic walk for the most part.

Hello latiff. Fog. Gentle colors. The landscape is hardly visible. Very moody. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Latiff,
nice foggy environment with the earthy narrow alley, to lead the eye to the hidden from the fog house.The soft pink and mauve colour tints make the scene very atmospheric.Well done.

Have a nice weekend,Danos

Hello Latiff,
I like this minimalist composition with that leading dirt path, green lawn and the pure fog. The mood is very well captured.

Hi Latiff,
Beautiful scene in a foggy day, still able to see these white and brown local architectures, good exposure and lighting to show the dim environment, good shoot.
