The Dolomites in June 2011

[Hans Kruse]

Once more I was in the Italian Dolomites and the weather was quite different from previous times and therefore also more challenges to get the pictures that we wanted, but there were some good spots as well. Here is a selection from the 10 days I spent there and 6-7 days with a group of 9 photographers from 5 countries.
All pictures were taken with a Canon 1Ds mkIII and a variety of lenses as will be mentioned. All post processing were done in Lightroom 3.4 and with a little editing in Photoshop CS5 in the first picture to remove a distracting element. No filters were used and all single exposures.

Beautiful ... I've been to that area.  Did you have to hike very far to these locations?  I would be interested to see them geotagged, at Panoramio for instance.

Thanks you for posting them.

[Hans Kruse]

Thanks You can drive very close to these views. Many of the places are named in the galleries, so you can find them on Google Maps. I don't post my pictures on Panoramio although I have posted a few some years back.
