There were already some people on the way in the early morning. Best weather and above all little wind had probably appealed to some photographers to come to the Kugelbake. I hadn’t put the ND filters on this morning. The lateral incidence of light would have strongly affected the images. Backlight shots in JPG […]

Stormfront Hanna
