<b>Paradise next door</b>

<i>This gorge lies just 20 minutes north of Graz, where I live. It's the most beautiful place of its kind in whole Styria. Now, when the snow melts, the creeks are nicely filled with water.
I didn't climb the gorge itself, as it's just being repaired because stone avalanches have torn some several of the bridges there. Maybe I will make it there again next week - before the offical opening on May 1st. From then on it's very hard to shoot images there as people always walk past and you can never keep your tripod steady.
I wanted to keep the shot natural - processing is minimal, just bringing back the highlights in the water.</i>
