Natural Enlightenment

Natural Enlightenment, a photo by PatrickH15 on Flickr.

Location: Obernberger See, Tirol, Austria
Date: 5th, August, 2012
Camera/Lens: Canon EOS 550D/Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Description: This photo is of a bridge crossing the 'Obernberger' Sea and a church seen in the midst of a forest. When present in the scene depicted, one feels enlightenment through the natural beauty of the mountains and their reflections in a clear blue sea. The concept is almost a juxtaposition to the enlightenment offered by the church. I was lucky to have perfect weather and timing to shoot this photography which has the right amount of lighting and composition. I especially like the fact that this scene is so easy to get to for humans, as shown by the travelers on the bridge. It truly reflects that any place on Earth can be stunning and also still accessible to humans.
