Fotoeins Friday in Berchtesgadener Land: Kehlstein south
About 10 kilometres southeast from the alpine town of Berchtesgaden, the infamous Eagle’s Nest on Kehlstein is a destination for those interested in all-encompassing views of the Berchtesgaden Alps (Berchtesgadener Alpen) from the southeast corner of Germany into central Austria. From near the Kehlstein summit, the view shown here faces south, including Jenner at centre and the Königssee lake below. At upper right is Watzmann, one of the best-known peaks in the area and Germany’s 3rd highest mountain (elevation 2713 metres).
I made the photo above on 26 May 2018 with a Fujifilm X70 fixed-lens prime and the following settings: 1/1000-sec, f/13, ISO1000, and 18.5mm focal length (28mm full-frame equivalent). This post appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com as https://wp.me/p1BIdT-h64.

For some reason, on my computer, your opening image in the WordPress Reader is very tiny and when I click on it, I get a 404 error.
I navigated directly to your blog page, however, and the beauty of that opening shot is revealed at full size. Not sure what’s up with that or if it’s of importance, but just something I noticed.
