This years goal was to get river Elbe more into focus. The reason why there are the famous rock formations is nearly always the valley of river Elbe. It seems easy, but it is in fact quite difficult to show the conncetion, as the river is nearly always hidden in her valley.
Next on the list was to visit Burg Königstein (did not make it...) and some famous viewpoints around the Bastei. Some worked some not.
The first morning however resulted in really awesome images of the Elbe valley and in a very tired photographer. I drove 5 hours from Munich to Bad Schandau, climbed one of the mountains had a beautiful sunset, was back at the car at 23:00, was asleep at 01:00 and got up at 3:30 to climb the same mountain again. It started to rain at 13:00.
