Shitty pictures – take care of our environment
Fireweed in evening glory. Lappträsk, Finland. July 2018. The header says it all – shit comes around…and climate change is making it more severe and more visible to us all. No swimming anymore in mid-july in the gulf of Finland due to cyanobacteria bloom.... (more)
On the top of Europe
Sometimes even I do go up towards the clouds – or almost above them. I had the opportunity to visit Mount Pilatus and stay there for two nights – what an experience! To open the window before sunrise and look out over the alps…it... (more)

The panning period
The lamount of light has increased significantly over the last weeks, and we have already seen some migrating birds around here. We had some “last new snow” a week ago, so I had to trap the panorama gear and head out to a natural forest near by for some winter shots – they are quite... (more)
