Once I start noticing the smaller things, lines, shapes and colours, patterns begin to emerge in the landscape around me. Connections, combinations and parallels appear that I hadn’t seen before.

Celebrating patterns with and their reimagined Tartan collection. For generations, Barbour’s tartans have drawn inspiration from the English countryside. I especially love the new Shadow Tartan, a more subtle take on the classic pattern, with muted colours that feel just right for the season.

30 years of the Hanwag Alaska GTX.

I’ve had mine for almost ten years. They’ve picked up scratches, patina and a lot of miles along the way, and I still reach for them whenever I’m heading out on a serious photo mission.

The Alaska has barely changed over three decades. And honestly, I think that’s pretty beautiful.

Some things just stay.

30 years, still here.

Starting in Munich, onward against the current of the Isar River, four friends on a ride to the mountains. A rough plan, bags filled with camping gear on 20inch wheels of the Brompton x and wander G line.
Not a ride for the kilometres or personal records, but for time spent outside in good company.

lüften [ˈlʏftn̩] german verb

the act of airing out the room, typically by opening a
window

the air is sticky, it’s about time to lüften. the last weeks I got locked in front of the desk, working, emails and all that. in the meantime summer has arrived and really needs to be welcomed. glad to do that with some major hiking in norway very, very soon.

happy weekend, everyone.

once a year, when the sun is in the right spot and the trees are not yet full of leaves, it illuminates the rock formation at altschlossfelsen in the pfalz during sunset. the ‘felsenglühen’ itself is a beautiful phenomenon, but the location is spectacular on its own. the red sandstone sculptures feel like something you wouldn’t expect in germany. i personally loved the details especially when the light hit the structures.🏜️

high tides and hopes

slides from a trip to ireland in march with my lad . for this production, i returned to the aran islands: they still feel as real and raw as i remembered.
drystone walls, wind, open land and at the edge cliffs fall straight into the atlantic. even the light broke through for a few minutes. thankful I got to experience this.
