The church of the tiny village of Maria Gern, now part of the small town, Berchtesgaden. You could see this building on a previous photo of mine, entitled Memories.

Berchtesgaden (IPA: [bɛʁçtəsˈgaːdən]) is a municipality in the German Bavarian Alps. It is located in the south district of Berchtesgadener Land in Bavaria, near the border with Austria, some 30 km south of Salzburg and 180 km southeast of Munich. It is situated north of the Nationalpark Berchtesgaden.
Berchtesgaden is often associated with the Mount Watzmann, at 2713 m the third-highest mountain in Germany (after Zugspitze and Hochwanner), which is renowned in the rock climbing community for its Ostwand] (East Face), and a deep glacial lake by the name of Königssee (5.2 km˛). Another notable peak is the Kehlstein mountain (1835 m) with its Kehlsteinhaus (Eagle's Nest), which offers spectacular views to its visitors.
Berchtesgaden's neighboring towns are Bischofswiesen, Marktschellenberg, Ramsau, and Schönau am Königssee.

Hi Kristof!
Very nice presentation. Great colors and composition!
Congratulations.

Perfect angle of view in this scene ,you chose the sunny side and managed the light quite well here, i notice you shared the view with some others as seen by the cars parked right by the church , the mountains in the BG enhance the scenery dramatically and hence the perfect angle of view of the beginning phrase , lol ...the off-center position of the building is appropriate ,
TFS Kristof ,

hello Kristof,

this one is sure very impressive to look at.. a small beautiful designed Church in a lovely surrounding.. the right view of the Church is simply stunning.. well done.. tfs..

regards, terry

A striking little structure in a well presented shot. Rich contrast and good colours and details. A shame you couldn't have persuaded the cars' owners to move them out of the way, hehe!

Personally I'm not so keen on the frame, I think the colours clash with the natural tones of your photo, and it would be better with a white frame or none at all.

HI Kritof
I would walk all the way up just to see the scenery and hear the bells resounding in the distance.
A beautiful capture of what looks like a small but quaint church.

A charming looking church with a magnificent view. Good POV and composition that holds the natural atmosphere of the setting nicely. Love the clouds in the sky and the distant mountain for context. The light and clarity are excellent. Well done:)
