Angelina Widmann says:
There is a mute swan colony at Jägersee that I often visit, particularly in winter. The lake’s biodiversity is limited, so I usually focus on photographing the swans. Being a mountain lake, Jägersee is frequently blanketed in snow, as it was on this visit. Initially, I used a telephoto lens to capture images of the lone swan visible that day. While the photos turned out well, they lacked a certain vibrancy. I then switched to a portrait lens with an open aperture to capture the icy landscape and freeze the motion of the falling snowflakes. The resulting image is very atmospheric and recreates the atmospheric cold of the day.

Born in 2006, photography accompanied me since my early teens as a creative counterpart to competitive sports, mountaineering and my school career. Getting through all the phases of photography, from macro to editing all my photos with the “moody look” and so on, helped me to develop an unique photography style. Now my style is about capturing emotions and feelings so it intensifies a moment and makes it last for ever. Telling a story is the one thing in photography I’m most passionate about. Be it the story of two humans or documenting nature conservation, I put all the creative and technical effort in telling the story in all aspects.
