La Palma 2015

As part of a conference, I spent the afternoon on the Roque de Los Muchachos, visited at telescopes, waited for nightfall and only went back to the city after dark. We stopped again on the way down and had a good view over the west side of the island. Santa Cruz is brightly lit with…

Ore mountains 2022

A few weeks ago I took the chance in more wooded areas than around my current residence to hike more through the forest again. And in autumn it’s also worth keeping your eyes open for food. There weren’t any blackberries, raspberries or blueberries, but there were plenty of mushrooms around. We didn’t want to take…

England 2022 (5)

I continue to do activities and take photos, but this means I have less time to write posts. And of course I work, which is nice but takes so much time :). This photo was recently taken on the way home, with fluffy and pastel clouds, lots of blue sky, pleasant temperatures and the smell…

Thuringia 2010 (2)

It was good to get out on the day, the colors were just great. And I guess I enjoyed the sunshine in October. Without the picture I would completely miss the memories of the day. But what I’ve been thinking about now is how often I probably wasn’t outside back then, despite the nice weather.…

Ore mountains 2005

A few rays of light come through the dense forest. Maybe we should have dug for the treasure there.
