The beauty of the morning in Seefeld..., a photo from Tyrol, West

Photographer's Note

Morning in Seefeld.

Seefeld in Tirol is an old farming village, now a major tourist resort, in Innsbruck-Land District in the Austrian state of Tyrol. The village is located about 17 km northwest of Innsbruck on a plateau between the Wetterstein mountains and the Karwendel on an historic road from Mittenwald to Innsbruck that has been important since the Middle Ages. It was first mentioned in 1022 and since the 14th century has been a pilgrimage site, benefiting not only from the visit of numerous pilgrims but also from its stacking rights as a trading station between Augsburg and the Venice. Also since the 14th century, Tyrolean shale oil has been extracted in the area. Seefeld was a popular holiday resort even before 1900 and, since the 1930s, has been one a well known winter sports centres and amongst the most popular tourist resorts in Austria. The municipality, which has been the venue for several Winter Olympics Games, is the home village of Anton Seelos, the inventor of the parallel turn.

With more than one million overnight stays each year, it is one of the most popular Tyrolean tourist destinations especially for skiing in winter, but also for walking holidays in the summer.

Witaj Krzysztof,
We continue our early morning stroll around the pretty village of Seefeld with another fine composition. The nicely illuminated mountain peaks make a beautiful backdrop to the village scene. Excellent light management accompanied by beautiful colours and very good clarity. I wish you a pleasant Sunday afternoon.

Hello Krzysztof,
The light is very pleasant before the sun has climbed over the mountains. The colours are very mild and it is easy to imagine the freshness of the air after the night. The hedge and the road form fine diagonals in this well balanced composition.
Kind regards,
Gert
