We’ve just had a short break in the Black Forest resort of Schluchsee, on the shore of the lake with the same name. Not exactly a long holiday, just two nights to be precise, but nevertheless most enjoyable. The dog friendly hotel kept us very well fed and served me the occasional beer in the late afternoon sunshine. We managed to grab a boat trip on the lake before they closed for the season, and had a brisk walk along the lakeside path to Aha.
But what about the photography side of things?
Actually I didn’t take too many photos, and those I did take were far from spectacular and of little photographic merit, but I did enjoy experimenting with a few early morning shots whilst taking the dog out before the village awoke. A fascinating time of the day, the sky was no longer completely dark, the streets deserted. A tripod would have been more than useful, but of course I’d left mine at home. But there was usually a handy piece of fence, a railing or a bench close by, not perfect but beggars can’t be choosers. I’ll publish a few daylight pictures at a later date.
