The story behind the image

Last year we did a tiny excursion into the Bavarian Alps. The weather was awesome and much welcome after a longer period of cloudy and cold days. Our destination was the Sylvenstein Basin near Lenggries. While you could do long hikes down there, we decided to step out of the car a couple of times and explore the area through several shorter walks.

From the viewpoint high above the basin I could take this awesome image of the Faller Klamm bridge and the basin. For once, I really do like the lens flare created by the sunlight.

For this photo I used the Canon EF 24-70 f/2.8L II USM on my M6 Mark II body to overcome the limitations of the kit lens. The result is truly awesome and proves that the camera is way better than the kit lens. Just put a decent lens on a decent camera and you get the chance for a decent photo.

Go figure.
