Excellent shots and video as usual Mads. Brought back some memories for me. Travelled from Scotland to Berchtesgaden on a school trip for 9 days back in 1995. Pity I wasn't a photographer back then. Hopefully visit again some time.
like you said Königsee location is hard to describe...we were there two springs ago and have probably walked the same paths..we did not have time or a great day for sightseeing much rain but none the less deep memories made there...Im liking that you improvised with the gear you had don't we all...I can still hear the bugle horn playing from the ferry ride there..Obersee and Hintersee are on my list for the next visit...thank you again for your amazing images that inspire and delight all the senses ...
Hey Mads, as always a nice vlog to watch. What an incredibly beautiful scenery. I can imagine you had a great time spending their. Your photos are absolutely beautiful, they look almost like paintings.
Hey Mads, Another gr8 vid mate. The little house at 6.15. You have treated this to perfection where it is difficult to ascertain where the reflected roof line on the right begins and where the mountai reflection starts. Its almost like one continuous line! Regards Ewan
Beautiful photos, Mads. Though I will most likely never visit these beautiful lakes, I enjoyed listening to all the information you provided about them. I very much enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for posting this thoughtful and inspirational content.
Great video mate. We are planning on doing a trip from Switzerland to Czech Republic next year and quick look at google maps reveals that Berchtesgaden is very close to the Austrian border. Berchtesgaden added to the list :). Thanks for sharing yet again mate.
Hi 👋🏽 thanks for the video! I have had intense dreams about a place that looks like this. It’s just one of those dreamy idillic places in the world to hopefully visit one day🙂
What amazing location Mads. We are spoiled by wonderful scenery here in the UK so it can be easy for us not to look beyond our own shores; your videos open our eyes to a whole world of possibilities.
From the opening title and music score you can't help feel the goosebumps Mads as this means one thing....an epic vlog is about to unfold. The quality of your video is superb and the images from this episode really made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up such was the beauty of the scenery. You really make Tuesday's great with these magnificent episodes
I had spent 3 days hiking around Berchtesgaden. It enabled me to get to Obersee around sunrise with the mist and good lighting, and no tourists around. There's also a secret ice cave near St Bartholomew worth checking out. Lastly, there's an interesting switchback trail leading up to Karlingerhaus. Unfortunately I was a hiker without photo equipment :( so will have to go back soon to capture those moments!
Epic pictures !!! Enjoyed this video and yes some photographers are way to serious. They gonna get wrinkles and these don't smooth out after 30 seconds :)
Your landscape photography is phenomenal, Mads, and I really enjoy coming along for your trips in these videos. Thank you for sharing! I laughed when you described the angry wave-haters at the lake; I can imagine how tense they get in a crowd. 😂
Christian Hammer Nielsen they were annoying to themselves and us. Heck, I wasn't even allowed to remove some leafs in the water, while they were standing with their hands in their pockets 🧐
Perfect timing Mads. I had just made myself an espresso which I have just enjoyed while watching another beautifully crafted video. That image of the trees on the island with the pink sky was awesome. :-)
Just wow Mads another great vlog full of dramatic music and great images, that boat house with the shadow reflection is an awesome shot and comp.. Your Europe series is quickly becoming my visit list for the next time I'm in the alps.. :)
Hey Mads, wow, Hintersee morning sunrise shot, outstanding! Literally my jaw dropped when the image transitioned in with that morning light and composition. one of your best images in recent vlogs! - Wishing you the best, and cant wait for Hallstatt. Regards Geoff
Excellent and thank you for what you do. I especially enjoyed your description of composition when photographing hintersee area. I'd love to see some more of your thoughts on composition. I've researched dynamic symmetry and gestalt psychology (thanks for the tips) and am trying to apply them to my own photography, as well as see them in others. Anything you can do in terms of compositional education, for me at least, would be very much appreciated.
Hello Peter, this is my 1st-time watching footage of yours. It is very enjoyable to watch! It catches me immediately! I'm going to visit this area in the summer...maybe you could tell how much it takes to from taking the boat in Königssee , having an enjoyable trip around Obersee and back to starting point...?
Great video as always Mads! Just wondering what a trip to this place can go for? If you need to hire a car and food an all that but maybe living in a tent. I'm worried this would cost me a fortune but it just looks to beautiful not to visit! i'm also wondering if you have any editing tutorials where you teach how to get that wonderful glow that you have in you photos, would love to learn that! Thank you and greetings from Sweden! :)
Hi Mads - I have been enjoying your series on the alps! Just a quick WARNING for people who want to shoot Hintersee: There are TWO Hintersee Lakes and they are within an hour of each other! My stupid GPS sent me to the WRONG Hintersee when I was there and I missed a spectacular sunset. The one that your viewers will want is near Berchtesgaden. The one they DON'T want is East of Salzburg. How can these people have TWO lakes with the same name that close?? Did they just run out of names?? Anyway...I was very disappointed when I arrived at the wrong one. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Thanks for the video! :)
Hey Mads, thank you for another great video. Loved one of the last pictures, in horizontal. I'm still struggling with verticality used in landscape, but it's just me ;) I hope you didn't take too much heat, when taking those shots. Some photographers can be quite grumpy! (even with no reason to it)
Mads that shot 9.11 is soooo gorgeous. Processing is spot on too. Nailed it.
Colin Green thank you very much! :)
Thank you again for another splendid armchair tour with tips. Love the misty boat photo at 5:45 and the boathouse shot at 6:15.
vargavideo yeah, as much as I like the other photos I think the boat one is my favorite from this video :)
Yet again a magic segment. The boathouse shot was great but the last shots were better.
Tom Duncan thanks a lot, I agree 😉
Masterful use of leading lines and masterful description. With humor no less. Great patience. Fstopers was right in rating your photos highly.
Thanks a lot Savage! :)
Absolutely great video Mads, as always :) Luxurious locations, breathtaking photos :)
Jiri Vrablik thank you so much yet again :)
Mads you managed to capture some fantastic images from his location. Well done mate, they are all beautiful.
Darren Booker thanks a lot! Very happy to hear that :)
Great video, Mads, stunning images. Especially liked the sunset pictures towards the end and the ‘misty’ ones near the beginning.
Tony Turner thanks a lot! Yes I really love these too :)
Fantastic location Mads, and super images thanks for sharing.
Phil Wheelhouse you're welcome and thanks a lot :)
Fascinating and engrossing as usual.
Andy Miles thanks a lot! Means a bunch :)
Some quite stunning imagery my favourite has to be the moody shot of the boat in the fog Mads.
Dean Clifford yeah, I love that one too!
As usual a quality video Mads. The images at the hintersee my favourites. Hard to single one out
Dianne Willingham thank you very much! Yeah, that's a pretty good collection :)
Your composition is always perfect! I think you are my current favourite landscape photographer... Keep up the great work! 😉
Scott Talbot that's a huge compliment, because there're a lot of amazing landscape photographers out there!
Mads Peter Iversen Credit where credit is due. 👍
Excellent shots and video as usual Mads. Brought back some memories for me. Travelled from Scotland to Berchtesgaden on a school trip for 9 days back in 1995. Pity I wasn't a photographer back then. Hopefully visit again some time.

Jim Cooke thank you as always! 😊
Great video and the resulting photographs are amazing! It inspires me to not automatically go ‘landscape’ but to try another aspect ratio. Thanks!
I'm very happy to hear that. I think it's a great tool for ones expression that you're not limited to one format :)
Beautiful location and excellent images as always Mads. The portrait shot at 9:33 is stunning
Jamie Overland thank you very much! :)
like you said Königsee location is hard to describe...we were there two springs ago and have probably walked the same paths..we did not have time or a great day for sightseeing much rain but none the less deep memories made there...Im liking that you improvised with the gear you had don't we all...I can still hear the bugle horn playing from the ferry ride there..Obersee and Hintersee are on my list for the next visit...thank you again for your amazing images that inspire and delight all the senses ...
Hey Mads, as always a nice vlog to watch. What an incredibly beautiful scenery. I can imagine you had a great time spending their. Your photos are absolutely beautiful, they look almost like paintings.

Mario Valkenborg haha! That's the best analogy. You're absolutely right :)
Your landscape photography is phenomenal, Mads, and I really enjoy coming along for your trips in these videos. Thank you for sharing! I laughed when you described the angry wave-haters at the lake; I can imagine how tense they get in a crowd. 😂

William DeSevo thanks a lot 😊
Great video Mads - a very enjoyable watch mate
James Brew thanks a lot mate! 👊
Nice work! 👍 Too bad it seems you missed the “Ramsau” bei Bertchesgaden church view - also classic.
bwvids we drove past it and was aware of it. We just prioritized other locations, since we didn't really find that one to be that special ;)
I would love to see these images, particularly the one at 6:26 in black and white !
Emma Rose Photography would be very interesting. I rarely convert to B&W though 🤔
Great video! Thanks
You're welcome! :)
wau,nice place and weather,there is no snow.how is posible? :)
miroslav cvicela, I was there in September :)
This video is beautiful
Excellent and thank you for what you do. I especially enjoyed your description of composition when photographing hintersee area. I'd love to see some more of your thoughts on composition. I've researched dynamic symmetry and gestalt psychology (thanks for the tips) and am trying to apply them to my own photography, as well as see them in others.

You're very welcome and thanks a lot! I have another video on composition coming soon :)
Amazing location and images

Xephoze thanks a lot. The "glow" is called an Orton effect. Just check it here on UA-cam. I don't think it has to be that expensive :)

William McIntosh oh boy! What an annoyance! Sorry to hear that and yes, very sad to miss a great sunset!
Hi Mads, could you make a video about taking tack sharp photos? your photos are so sharp and the reflection photo is really smooth
Awesome mate. I'm typing because I'm speechless! :-)
Rob Thorley haha! Very good to hear :)
The shots you got at Hintersee were so damn good! Germany is a gold mine for landscape photography, I'll have to plan a trip there soon enough!
Thanks a lot Yann! Yeah it's a very beautiful location :)
Deepest Chasms of hell, made me laugh so much. Beautiful images Mads.x
Char hehe yeah, I think it's funny too :)
Brilliant Mads ❤
Mark Hinds thanks a lot! 😊

Nuno Basto de Lima yeah, they should just sleep in ;) but thanks a lot 😊
Awesome
Absolutely beautiful images. I've always heard Germany was beautiful and you certainly didn't disappoint.
Nina Cleven thanks a lot! Yeah, if you look the right places Germany is fantastisch! ;)
Sublime mads 😀😀😀😀😀😀 can I ask your advice on a polorizing filter.....I use Lee system but the Lee polorizing is out of reach.
steven peachey what do you mean by out-of-reach?
Mads Peter Iversen or sorry..too expensive for me at the moment
I've never considered going to Germany before, but you've changed my mind. I'll be checking it out for a trip later this year.
Sound very nice! They have a lot of beautiful locations too :)
PAUL WAYMAN I'm a Brit living in Germany and never been down south, that's about to change this weekend! :)
