Moonrise
Posted on Oktober 23rd, 2014
Now it happend, the mountains are covered with snow again. We had a long reasonably warm autumn, which is now replacing by the winter.
We will see, how the photo weather is in the next few weeks. Maybe we can shoot some amazing winter images, like this with the rising fullmoon over the bernese alps.
Anyway the next few days should be clear and I hope I can take some nice shots.
Sunrise at the mountain lake
Posted on Oktober 21st, 2014
There was only short time, but I used it and drove for 24 hours up to the mountains. I had a full programm, first go for hiking in the afternoon, taking photos at night, take a short nap and up again go for the sunrise to the lake.
Then back to home because I had a business meeting at noon. So I was really at the end of my power after these days. But I also had some awesome images taken. And I don’t regret all the stress at the weekend.
Therefore lean back and enjoy the stunning landscape while the sunrise at this beautiful lake in the swiss alps.
The last warm autumn days
Posted on Oktober 18th, 2014
At this weekend we can enjoy one more time some really beautiful and warm autumn days, before next week the snow beginns to fall in the mountains.
Afterwards comes the bad time for hiking. All funiculars are making hollidays and the weather is anyway the most time dingy. But if this year is going right, then you can in approx. two month admire awesome winter landscapes in the mountains. We hope now for a short dry spell followed by a glorious winter.
The fog lifts
Posted on Oktober 15th, 2014
After the fog in the night the fields and the forests has thick enwraped, the morning sun freed us from the dull gray.
Only a short while later a wunderful morning shones with a blue sky. Who has thought, only a short while ago it was not possible to say where the sun would be in the sky.
And the fresh planted canola is waiting until the spring, when his yellow blossoms the whole neighborhood is filling with the lovely fragrance…
Yesterday
Posted on Oktober 14th, 2014
I was writing the blog post of yesterday and was looking casually through the window to the outside. It was a really dingy day with rain and mud.
But what were my eyes seeing there? The sky was glowing pink, in the east! Not in the west, I can’t watching there, no in the east. Okay, I opened immediately the other window, lean out and watched to the west. What a show, is there going on? There must be an nuclear plant exploded, the whole sky was burning.
Grab the camera, snatch the tripod, take the first shoes I can see, running out and drive with the car up to the near pond. Nearly I was to late again, but only nearly… And yes, after that I had wet feet again, this was worth of it!
Strange blossoms at monday
Posted on Oktober 13th, 2014
No idea what this is. Those things ar looking like small, pink pumpkins and if they are burst, then there are these strange amber berries.
Has anybody of you the movie ‘Body Snatchers’ seen? What ever this things are, they looking stunning colorful and therefore they are qualified for the bloomy monday. In this sense – I wish all of you a successful week! 
Mountains, meadows and forests
Posted on Oktober 12th, 2014
The weather wasn’t as good as I had liked and I was a bit disappointed, because the sky was already covered with clouds. But this was a bit silly.
For nighttime shots would it be too cloudy, but for daytime shots is the sky looking more interessting with clouds than without it. Okay, if the clouds are hanging so deep and thick, that you can see only some flowers in the foreground, then it would be too much of it, but on this day the clouds were exactly right.
Bright moon at the Melchsee
Posted on Oktober 10th, 2014
It was summer and the days were warm, but at 2000m at the Melchsee, I was getting real cold.
We reached our photospot about midnight and we were shooting until the sun was visible. Eventually we found some wooden logs for making a small fire. But since then I have always a pair of long drawers with me, thereby I won’t get some frost boils even while the summertime…
Cold and hot in Valais
Posted on Oktober 9th, 2014
There was a small breeze and the temperature was at -15°C. But at the upwards stumping with my snow shoes through the snow, I was sweating anyway.
At the top on the ridge, while waiting for the camera, to take all the shots for one image it goes up to 20 minutes, I was getting a little cold. Nevertheless I would do this always again. The nightly images from the Alps are inspiring me everytime a new.
The last warm sunrays
Posted on September 26th, 2014
Before the sun hides behind the horizon, she is sending some last warming rays through the clouds over the hills into the snow covered valley.
So is the cold day yielding a more colder night in the mountains, therefore he doesn’t say goodbye without to play once more fiercly with the colors. As a photographer you are waiting for exactly such sunsets and sometimes you are lucky enough to be to the right time at a photogenic place, like here at the Chuderhuesi in the Emmental.
