Moonset

The waxing moon setting over the mighty Rundle Range as seen from Canmore two weeks ago. Had a blast exploring there with the little one. Did not get the reflection I was hoping for, but still found this beautiful comp along the streams in town.

After the Rain.

Same place, different time of the day. This here is also at the Almsee but this time 1 h before sunset, when the sun briefly broke through and streamed golden light through the middle of the frame. While the mountain in the back was fighting off the low clouds. Not much composition wise here, so better keep that water surface calm for some more reflections.

Dreamy Morning.

Had the opportunity to escape to the Salzkammergut before attending a conference in Linz. Trading in sleep for light is usually the way to go with limited time and it payed off this time. When I arrived at the lake it was evident that fog would form this morning and as soon as it got a bit brighter I started shooting. Focusing in these dark conditions was real problem, but I managed to capture this beauty here, depicting the mountains of the "Totes Gebirge" and the still and dreamy fog scene over the Almsee. Expect some more from this location.

Ships are back in Town.

This weekend there is the Hanse-Sail here in Rostock. A festival celebrating the maritime lifestyle and a congregation of 100s of sailing ships of all sizes. Love to see those anchored in our inner city harbour as seen here last night!

Spring Nights.

Had the pleasure to shoot sunset yesterday from an elevated viewpoint looking over the new market of Rostock with the impressive Marien Church in the back. The skies really cooperated for this one!

Yesterday's sunset here in Rostock was a good one!

Framed by Clouds

The Nikolai Church and the Warnow River Front at sunset as seen from a boardwalk on the other side of the river. This was yesterday after conditions didn’t align on Sunday. So this underlines nicely how you get good light, persevere and just be out there!

Tungenesset

In the fjords on the north coast of Senja there is a very scenic look out, granting you a view of the Tungenesset. These rocks appear teeth-like and on that morning high surf was coming ashore, washing away some of the ice. This ice again made for a beautiful foreground. But after this shot the ice was washed out into the ocean again.
