Fotoeins Friday: February Fosanacht, Ludwigstrasse

By on

(26 February 2017.)

Crowds line Ludwigstrasse in Partenkirchen, ready to watch the costumed bike race through town to kick off the season’s festivities. Meanwhile, the guy with blue costume and blue sneakers takes a call.

In 2021, Carnival season in southern Germany, known as Fasching / Fosanacht / Maschkera, will occur in February. Key dates include Weiberfastnacht/Unsinnige Donnerstag (crazy Thursday) on 11 February, Fastnachtssonntag (Carnival Sunday) on 14 February, Rosenmontag (Shrove Monday) on 15 February, and Aschermittwoch (Ash Wednesday) on 17 February.

I made this photo on 26 February 2017 with the Canon EOS6D mark1, 24-105 glass, and the following settings: 1/320-sec, f/16, ISO1000, and 24mm focal length. This post appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com as https://wp.me/p1BIdT-jmn.
