The scene is idyllic, Sabine. The foreground trees are so clear, I feel as if I am in the shot and they also nicely frame the view that goes on for miles. A wonderful perspective and an well taken photo. A favorite for me.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

You outdid yourself on this one Sabine. The trees in the foreground serve as a window to the scene below. The scene is like little viginettes from the top of the hill to the faraway horizon. I see a little corral just below the trees and can't help but wonder what tpye of animal its keeping in. The walk down the hill looks much more enjoyable than the walk up. You did outstanding job picking your vantage point for this photo and everything is so clear. Great post Sabine. Favs w/o saying.

The framing, lighting, composition and colours - all is perfect. Most charming mood too, plus the title ... I think I must have been in a place like this one - in some other life or in dreams ...

This one is definitely alive with the sound of music... I can't believe noone's made that comment yet... I can't believe I just made that comment:) Gorgeous scenery Sabine, beautifully captured as always.
This is realy my favorite, and i rarely use other desktops than my own made, but this one is up for 2 days already here at my pc. This image just has every ingredient that i do like so much about the Alps. Although Swiss has higher and more rough mountains, Austria has a much more easy walk through it and is less steep, that makes your country just great for long walks. I have not been at this particular spot, but i just can imagine me walking here. what a joy for the eyes.
This picture is ridiculously beautiful. My favorite type of scene, with foreground trees sheltering the viewer and leading the eye into a majestic horizon. Did that sound too poetic? lol.. This deserves some kind of poetry!
