The early sunset
Posted on März 1st, 2014
It was on a hot day in last june, were I decided to go up to a mountain. The reason was, the clear weather and the moonless night. The bad part was the temperature about 30°C. The path was steep and the backpack extra heavy because of the additional tent and sleeping bag, to stay overnight at the peak. The plan was to be on the top for the sunset, the night and the sunrise. However I was too late again for the sunset. So I stopped at the half way up and made this image before the sun was gone. I reached the peak at 22:00 and could see the rest of the reddish light at the horizon. And the night sky was really awesome, but this will be another story, so stay tuned 
Dark clouds over the wheat

Mostly I’m too late for the right atmosphere, but this time I was at the right time at the right place! While sun was going down on my back, without any clouds, dark clouds where coming from the alps. It was so a dramatic lightning the deep standing sun together with the heavy storm clouds, it looks like a scenery for a horror movie.
Endless sunset in Norddal

Every photographer knows, if the sky is getting red and you don’t have build up your tripod and a shooting ready camera, then you have lost. Because the time windows is so short to catch this perfect sky. But if you are in the far north, where the trolls are at home and you hurry up to get the sunset sky and you are so proud, because this time you was fast enough… Then you will discover you have endless time to shoot a sunset. The sun stays at the horizon as long as you never saw it. The reason is, you are so near the tropic of cancer. So remember, at the equator the sun is hidden within seconds, near the polar circle the sun will maybe never hide or only very slow 
Cows on the mountain

Like mostly we were too late and missed the sunset. On this hike I was testing my brandnew outdoor equipment, tent, sleeping bag and backpack. Damn was the mountain steep and the equipment heavy I was short before a heart attack and I could use my tongue as a tie!
On the half way up, we saw the lake and the last sunset glow at the sky, so we stopped for a photo session, probably this saved my life. The cows in the front are a really nice eye candy, but the couldn’t sit still and I get only blurred cows. But all together I like this image, because there is everything on it: animals, a lake, sunset, mountains and the stars.
The sun and the rain
Posted on Februar 7th, 2014
After another week of grey weather, I need more color in my life. So I poked in my archive and found this wonderfull spring image.
It was a rainy day and I came home from our weekly food shopping, as the clouds unexpected moved away and the sun spent her light over the landscape. I let my wife alone with all the shopping parts and run up to the nearly hill. And I was right there before the sun was away and could take this breathtaking photo.
I needed 7 images with 2ev steps to get the full dynamic in this scenery.
Toggenburg

At a nice spring evening I was near this region and I thought why not take a rode deeper into the Toggenburg and shoot from a higher position an image with all this mountains at the background. What should I say, I did it :).
Unfortunately I was a bit to late to see all the peaks glowing by the deep standing sun. But look at this beatiful landscape with the awesome lightning. It was definitly worth it to run up this hill to get a picture.

It was a cold winter day and short before the sun disappeared. And I was to the right time at the right place, to take this beautiful winter sunset. The sunset in cold winter days are not so colorful as in other seasons. But look at the wonderful pastel colors in the sky. Isn’t that awesome, isn’t it? So every season has its own charme, to get great images. You have just to do it!
The smoky moon
Posted on Januar 13th, 2014
The sun was allready down and the stars visible, as I shoot this photo. But something’s strange on the image. Either the moon is burning or there is a doomsday meteor in the sky. The fact we are still here, excludes the 2nd possibility. But why is there smoke at the moon, I thought it couldn’t be smoke in the space without air. Or maybe they are right and there is also no space and the technicians fixed the problem with the fire. And yes, I think there are now more dark spots on the moon…
