Thunderstorm in the Provence
Posted on September 10th, 2014
The last few years, when we are going to a vacation, it is always raining. No matters where we are going, the rain is following us doggedly. But this hasn’t to be bad all the times, especially if in between is clearing off, then you get often some good opportunities for amazing images.
Just like here in the the Provence, where I could shoot directly from our balcony of our holiday flat this stunning sunset. Sometimes you have to use the opportunities you get offered.
Winter in the alps
Posted on September 7th, 2014
After a warm late summer day, some of you you may want to cool down a bit. At -10°C and fading sunlight on the crest is it definitely colder than now. For some of you are these temperatures too cold, but on the other hand there is wunderful powder snow, not like at the last winter. There you have to search the snow with a magnifier.
But now it comes first the autumn and hopefully it brings us some beautiful photo weather for some spectacular images. You will it see here what the weather has to offer us in the next few weeks.
Sunset on the half way
Posted on September 3rd, 2014
Actually I wanted to enjoy the sunset peacefuly on the peak. But like mostly I was too late and the sunset started too early and I was still a good part away from the peak.
Therefore I took the rucksack of my back and shoot, at this really awkward place, a quick image out of my wrist. So you have to excuse the bad quality from this position, no comparision to an image from the peak with all these disturbing trees in the sight… 
After the short stop, I had still to go a good piece upwards to the mountain and until I was on the top, the sun was already hided behind the horizon.
Sunset before the wedding
Posted on August 28th, 2014
We were invited to our friends wedding. At the evening before the wedding and the party, I checked out the neighborhood, thereby we have a nice background for our portraits.
Because it was already late, I was able to see the Fuerstenlager at Bensheim in a very nice sunset. E voila here is the result, a beautiful environmet in a stunning light.
Sunset on the fjord

I guess I mentioned before, sunsets in the far north are really relaxing. Meanwhile here in middle europe you nearly have time to grab your camera, before the light show is gone, here up in Norway you can take your time.
At the beginning of the shooting i was a bit edgy, because I dit not want to miss another sunset. But after half an hour was the show still going on and I had nearly no more ideas what else I can shoot.
Color explosion reloaded
Posted on August 5th, 2014
I see it coming, thick clouds at the sky above me and at the horizon bright blue. It was bound to happen, when the sun is appearing again at the horizon and the whole blaze of color bangs it under the cloud cover.
This shot is a single shot and not an HDR bracket series, like I do it otherwise. The sky was really that colorful and the only utility I used, was a speedlight to brighten up the apple blossoms in the foreground. There are sometimes such spectaculare sunsets, really!
Du trittst im Morgenrot daher…
Posted on August 1st, 2014
Today it becomes patriotic, because we are celebrating the Swiss national holiday. There are swinging Flags, blown alpenhorns and yodeling.
As a real “Eidgenosse” I would like to celebrate too, but there is Bubu. And Bubu has a big problem with all the fireworks, were you can hear banging the whole long day.
Therefore we are disappear each year in a foreign country, thereby our furry friend doesn’t get a heart attack. And he doesn’t have to hide it the whole long day, shivering, in the shower cabin.
For all other Swiss: have fun at the 1. of August with all the fireworks!
When the sky glows
Posted on Juli 29th, 2014
There are evenings, you can see how it will come. Then you know, now you have to pack your gear, drive to a place with an interesting object and you will get a color spectacle.
And so it was at this evening, you coldn’t do anything wrong. There were several cloud layers were begun to glow in different colors. I do only have to press the shutter and thing was in box.
In such sunsets it makes twice as much fun with the right equipment to run a riot 
The lonesome pony
Posted on Juli 24th, 2014
The pony is searching the whole long day after the last foodable grass blades, to get something between the teeth. It is bitter cold and the floor is already partly covered with snow. But bravely is it amble around for the last bit of green.
Not even it can enjoy this stunning sunset, poor pony.
Good is there a barn behind me with fresh straw and hay…
Where is the plane flying to?
Posted on Juli 20th, 2014
Winter in the flatlands, fog the whole long day. But then suddenly, short before the sunset, the fog dissolves a bit and we can guess the sun behind the mountains.
She throws the shadows of the mountains in the sky and through the clouds we can see a lonely plane in the sky. Where is it flying to? To a warm, fog free place in the middle of the sea with palms and endless sand beaches…
Who cares, if you can see such a sunset, who wants to go to a south sea island!
