Grand Tetons. The photo is a little busy, but I have always like something about it. The perfect reflection, the symmetry of the dead tree in front of the live conifer. We watched otters and a beaver play for almost an hour the morning we took this.

I was thinking of a subject to shoot with my new Nikon D7100 and I thought if I went to the Zoo I could take some good photos there. This is one of them.

It is just amazing how much more beautiful the world seems to be when waking up early in the morning.

This is just one example of what nature has to offer in such moment.

This picture shows the famous Neuschwanstein Castle of King Ludwig II. Situated near Fussen (Bavaria, Germany) it attracts people from all over the world. You can tour not only the beautiful palace (from the inside as well as the outside) but also the incredible landscape including the Alps and the lake "Alpsee". That's why Neuschwanstein is an overall masterpiece that has to be seen in context of the surrounding nature.
