Nature Photography

 

2018

June:    

Northern France and the Normandy was our destination  in our camper van this year. We found the Atlantic coast along the English Channel with its magnificent chalk cliffs, extended beaches and charming harbour towns very impressive. On long hikes we were rewarded with magnificent views and beautiful photo motives. In the historic towns we marveled at the beautifully restored half-timbered houses and the gothic cathedrals.

 

Jan.:        

My first trip this year was to the small town Kiilopää in Finland. It is located approx. 200 km north of the polar circle in Finnish Lapland. There I had the great opportunity, together with my friend Michael Falldorf, to photograph northern lights. For myself it was the first time I experienced this spectacular nature phenomena. It was fantastic to see the Aurora Borealis and to be able to capture the moment with my camera. Only on the photograph can one see the vivid colors of the aurora. With the naked eye they normally appear only in grey and white tones.
