Rax - Austria - Three Crosses

Uploaded: July 17, 2008

Description

These three crosses are cut with a chainsaw into an old stump. On the way between the Preiner Gscheid and the Waxriegelhaus on the border between Lower Austria and Styria. A quiet place to stop...
Very little processing, a bit of contrast and USM.

Very well seen and captured! Looks like a nice place to stop and say a prayer. #972893

Hello Ronald...
Thanks for the comment. This work of a logger is right beside the trail to a mountain hut, the "Waxriegelhaus" on the Rax (mountain) in Lower Austria. Google Earth is pretty good but the pictures don't resolve this nice spot. Here in Austria you find the three crosses in quite a few places, real crosses. But this is the first time I ever saw them cut into a stump. Yes, a quiet place... #6293709
