Cairns
Posted on März 9th, 2014
Man made cairns in the foreground and nature made cairns in the background, which one is more impressiv? Not a serious question at all. Intend readers know it’s the famous Eiger Northface. If you some day are in Grindelwald and you are not the full trained mountaineer, go for a walk from the Männlichen to the “Kleine Scheidegg”. You can take the cable car up and then you walk on a flat path to the train station where you can take either the train down again or the expensive train up to the very beautiful Jungfraujoch. No matters what you choose, it’s anyway a beauytful and easy hike.
Eiger nightshot
Posted on Januar 12th, 2014
As you can think, I didn’t go to Grindelwald and take photos from the Eiger Northface only by day. It was clear, that I go to get some nightshots of this fames mountain and the best spot I found was the Bussalp, because there was a street up there. The problem was, you couldn’t drive this street without a permission. Luckily I found an officer at the down house which gave me this permission, so I could drive up there in the middle of the night.
It was a very dark night without any moon light but also without any clouds, so I had this clear view southward on the Eiger, Moench and Jungfrau.
For this image I took 8 shots for noise reduction with 1600ISO and my old Canon 60D.
