Some images from yesterdays hike in the badlands of Tabernas, Almeria. A cold day but this made the skies crystal clear of either the heat haze or the Saharan dust that normally plague this area

A natural frame, well sort of natural. In fact this is a motorway bridge! But gives a nice framework for the interesting scenery behind
The rough and arid country leading to the peak of Cerro Alfaro

One of the finest views in #Scotland sits amidst the towering #mountains of Torridon. The summit itself is a flat shelf with steep drops to the south, providing an uninterrupted vista of the expansive glen beyond. The mountain itself is not on many people's lists; not surprising given it's dramatic neighbours. But, as a photographer, it is often these lower peaks that offer the best opportunities for images!

Zum Welttag der Gletscher

Im August 2023 startete ich zu einer dreitägigen Tour vom Jungfraujoch zum Grimselpass. Der grösste Teil der Tour führte über verschiedene Gletscher. Übernachtet wurde in zwei Hütten. Ein falscher Schritt liess mich bereits am ersten Tag in eine Gletscherspalte abrutschen. Ausser einer schmerzenden Schulter ist zum Glück nichts passiert. Am nächsten Morgen waren die Schmerzen zu stark um die Tour fortzusetzen, weshalb ich mit einem Helikopter bei der Hütte abgeholt und zur Kontrolle ins Spital gebracht wurde. Die Kollegen nahm ich am nächsten Tag auf dem Grimselpass in Empfang. Trotz allem war es ein unglaubliches Erlebnis, sich auf diesen mächtigen Gletschern zu bewegen. Ich kann dies jedem empfehlen und hoffe, dass dies noch lange möglich sein wird.

World Day for Glaciers

In August 2023, I set off on a three-day tour from the Jungfraujoch to the Grimsel Pass. Most of the tour led over various glaciers. Sleeping was in two huts. One wrong step caused me to slip into a crevasse on the very first day. Fortunately, apart from a sore shoulder, nothing happened. The next morning, the pain was too severe to continue the tour, so I was picked up from the hut by helicopter and taken to hospital for a check-up. I met my colleagues the next day on the Grimsel Pass. Despite everything, it was an incredible experience to be on these mighty glaciers. I can recommend this to everyone and hope that it will be possible for a long time to come.

My doctor told me to walk at least 30 minutes a day to clear my overactive brain. So I walked around the block today. I'm so glad that we moved here.

Yesterday we had snow(storms)during the whole day. A good chance to process the photos of the Aurora the night before.
Let’s see, what the weather will bring us today 😎😇

The last couple of days I went through my lightroom catalog and noticed that I never published the #photos from this bike & hike last august.
Again one of the areas that I wanted to visit since .. really long. But that day we just set out - despite the weather forecast and tried to have a great day.

A serene and peaceful scene is captured in this image, showcasing a trail cutting through a dense forest. The trail winds its way through towering trees, their leaves creating a lush canopy overhead. The forest is a mix of old-growth trees, with a variety of plant life adding to the vibrant greenery. Sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor. The image evokes a sense of tranquility and connection to nature, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the beauty of the woodland landscape.


8 Jahre ist es jetzt mittlerweile her, dass ich dort oben auf ca. 2.700m stand und diesen malerischen Sonnenuntergang erleben durfte. Es war der anstrengendste Auf- und Abstieg, den ich bisher erleben durfte, der von einer Woche Muskelkater begleitet wurde. Ein Glück war zu diesem Zeitpunkt meine Foto-Ausrüstung mit der ur-E-M5 mit dem Kit von Olympus noch superklein und superleicht.
Doch da oben zu stehen und sein Gipfelradler bei diesem Anblick genüsslich zu schlürfen hatte schon echt was.

Hey folks! Quick snap from today's hike. More to come later. Just doing some resting and cooking first.

See you later!

A breathtaking landscape featuring a majestic mountain covered in snow, towering against a backdrop of a serene blue sky with fluffy white clouds. In the foreground, there is a tranquil lake reflecting the beauty of the mountain. The scene is enhanced by a scattering of trees adding a touch of green to the snowy terrain. In the distance, a rocky hill can be seen with patches of snow. This picturesque view captures the essence of nature's beauty, showcasing the harmony between the elements of earth, water, and sky in a stunning outdoor setting.


This morning we had a hint of light getting underneath the snow clouds. Enough to make us smile.

I'm using a 60-600mm telephoto by Sigma for this scene. It's a big lens that I usually don't make an effort to take off the shelf. This winter I've really loved having it with me for chasing birds and snow capped peaks.

Photo d'un paysage de montagne. Au premier plan, une petite mare entourée d'herbe rase fait une plateforme donnant sur une vue dégagée. On distingue un glacier un peu plus loin. À l'arrière-plan s'enchaînent des massifs montagneux. L'air est brumeux


Ce jour-là eût lieu un curieux phénomène . En effet l’étoile polaire, brillant beaucoup plus fort qu’à l’ordinaire, apparût à l’est et s’éleva lentement dans le ciel. Quand elle comprit qu’elle avait été dupée par une lune d’humeur farceuse, la Pointe de l’Échelle en rougit de honte.

That day, a curious phenomenon took place. The North Star, shining much brighter than usual, appeared in the east and slowly rose into the sky. When she realized she'd been fooled by a moon in a playful mood, Ladder Point blushed with shame.

Photo d'un paysage de montagne au crépuscule.
Des montagnes saupoudrées de neige se reflètent nettement dans un lac. Un sommet plus éloigné est encore éclairé par le soleil, le reste de l'image est plongé dans l'ombre.
Dans le ciel, la lune brille et semble prendre une forme étoilée, elle se reflète aussi dans le lac. On distingue difficilement une ou deux étoiles dans le ciel.

Photo of a mountain landscape at dusk.
Snow-capped mountains are clearly reflected in a lake. A more distant peak is still illuminated by the sun, while the rest of the picture is plunged into shadow.
In the sky, the moon shines brightly and seems to take on a star-like form, also reflected in the lake. One or two stars are hard to make out in the sky.

July 19, 1983: I felt terrific as I followed the Appalachian Trail along streets through the town. Duncannon was a small city with a downtown business district consisting of a few square blocks of mid- to early twentieth-century buildings like the Doyle Hotel quickly giving way to tree-lined residential streets.

Beneath an extremely hazy whitewashed summer sky we are at a lookout high up a mountainside looking hundreds of feet down at a lush green valley where two major rivers join into one very large river. Impressive arch bridges span the mouths of both rivers, connecting the riverbank on or left to the peninsula between the rivers and then the riverbank on our right. There are wide swathes of forest along all the riverbanks, with the outskirts of a small city to our left. The rest of the valley is farm fields and pastures. A long, flattish ridge, barely visible through miles of thick humidity, rises from the far end of the valley.


And last but not least: Last import (I guess) is about a nice hike along lake #achensee .
Well - give it a try, it's not very long and I am - hopefully - finished with transferring my videos.

The hike itself is REALLY beautiful.

Kirkefjord is a small fishermen village not far from Reine in the Lofoten Islands. It's a very impressive place, really moody.

We absolutely love the Lofoten Islands! 🩵

The scent of the Atlantic, the white beaches, the incredibly beautiful mountains, the small scale of the landscape, the endless motifs, the light of the midnight sun and the strength of nature – it's all just incredible!

We can't wait to come back, because this is our home away from home!

A photograph from one of the most remote places in the UK, the Fisherfield Forest - about a 20km round trip hike from the nearest road. Perhaps rather alarmingly for an area named "forest", the landscape here is mostly treeless with only one tiny fragment of original woodland remaining on a steep sided mountain. A vestige of the past.

I just went through my #photos from yesterday and - unfortunately - none of them REALLY worked out the way I wanted. I somehow knew it already on location because it's a difficult season:

The snow melting and leaving a lot of brown patches, a clear blue sky with lots of sun, which is nice for me to see - but not for a cool photo. - BUT it was a good hike, that's what I have to keep repeating to myself

Temps variable sur le domaine aujourd'hui. La neige est encore bonne mais un peu de fraiche ne serait pas du luxe.

photo d'un paysage de montagne enneigé. Elle monte un vallon autour duquel on distingue des pistes et des remontées mécaniques. Le ciel est chargé de nuages qui assombrissent l'atmosphère, même si le soleil arrive à percer sur la gauche de l'image. l'ensemble donne une touche dramatique à l'image.


Just three snaps from my hike today. I didn't want to try anything new to be honest. So I just went for this summit. The views were great, especially with the fog down there.

It hasn't snowed for a while, that's why there are a LOT of brown patches of grass around. Not really great for nice #photos to be honest. But it nice to get out and have some exercise.

Oh and I was SUPER happy about my spikes. Some parts were just ice.
