The Prebisch Gate - Europe's largest natural rock bridge - rises above the valley of Bohemian Switzerland like an ancient monument of nature. In this autumnal composition, the impressive sandstone portal reveals itself from a new perspective: nestled between barren boulders in the foreground, framed by delicate birch leaves and accompanied by the historic "Sokolí hnízdo" hotel, the traditional falcon's nest, which was built into the rock directly below the bridge.
The scene is bathed in the soft light of dusk. The last colours of the day - pale orange, cool violet, calm blue - are reflected on the horizon and lend the landscape an almost dreamlike depth. The view sweeps from the rocky bridge over wooded heights into the distant hilly landscape of the Bohemian-Saxon border region - a panorama that looks like a painting and yet is quite real.
In this picture, the Prebischtor itself looks like a transition between worlds: between forest and expanse, between past and present, between man and nature. Nature has not only created a sight here, but a symbol of duration, change and beauty. The rock in the foreground emphasises the rustic closeness to the earth, while the foliage on the right heralds autumn in all its colourful glory - quietly, but vividly.
This motif is ideal for prints in landscape format, especially on canvas or aluminium dibond. It unfolds its effect in rooms that invite tranquillity - for example in living rooms, libraries or coaching practices. The interplay between the force of nature, architectural history and the mood of the light makes this picture an extraordinary work of art with depth and soul.
A photo that is not loud, but resonates - like the last sunlight on ancient rock.
I have always enjoyed photography. Even when I was young, I took photos with the Beirette. It even happened to me once that I inserted a film twice ... and the photos I took were very interesting.
I then bought my digital SLR camera in 2014. The first photos..
