Slovakia 2013

These photos were taken when leaving the High Tatras. Before that I spent a few days at work and two days on holiday there. Today the bike tour back to Germany started. It would probably have been a great time-lapse if I had thought so at sunrise. Then it was completely clear there and there…

Ore mountains 2008

During the semester break I had the chance to go for a ride on my bike on a sunny morning. The sunshine was great, but the best moment was when I came out of the forest and could see the mist over the valley, something I had very rarely seen before. It wasn’t until a…

Norway 2014 (6)

The two pictures were taken within two minutes. And they remind me of my feelings, which wasn’t great at the time. The first sight of reindeer was somewhat exciting. But on the other side it was the third day walking with a heavy backpack, the landscape was barren, it was uphill, the clouds hang low,…

Thuringia 2008

This is one of the many photos I’ve taken on walking, hiking, or bicycle trips over the years. Just a snapshot of the landscape because I liked it that much. When I look at it today, the colours of the sky are a bit weak, but you can’t have everything.

Norway 2014 (5)

The was the second day of our hike in Norway, and it just looked lovely. The rest the night before was good, especially after a refreshing (very short) bath in one of the small ponds next to the hut. The views were just wonderful.

Sweden 2012 (2)

With a friend I cycled from Göteborg to Stockholm, where we visited another friend. On the way home I cycled alone to Trelleborg, and camped wild. The nice thing about Sweden is, that it’s legal, hence no need to worry about being seen. And it’s nice to have water always close, a swim to wash…

Norway 2014 (4)

During our hiking trip in Norway, we saw larger animals only twice. And both times it were only reindeer. When we rented the key for the huts, we were told to be aware of the bears, and it was really nice not to see them. The reindeer were quite shy, staying away of us. People…

Thuringia 2010 (2)

Autumn starts to become visible in the image. It was one of the many cycle rides I did in the local area I was living at the time.

Ore mountains 2004

At the time I worked shifts, including weekends. And I cycled every day 15 km to work and 15 km back, which meant I was really fit. One sunny Wednesday I headed out cycling and, after half a day, passed by this bridge. Getting off the bicycle to take pictures and look around was a…

Scotland 2017 (2)

It has been already nearly 5 years ago, that I visited Scotland. I want to go again for a second time, the remote landscape is something so beautiful. Just looking at the image and remembering the time helps me feel relaxed. A time lapse of the sunset from a position close to here can be…
