Writing Essentials 2022


This time I'm going to write a bit off topic. This post post and also the next one hopefully coming out in the following week will be not so much about images or photography, instead they will be more about getting and using the right apps. This time I will focus on writing apps, but expect more pos...

Ellingen


Ellingen is quite a small town in the heart of Central Franconia in the northern parts of Bavaria. There‘s a lovely medieval city centre, a nice city gate but first and foremost there‘s a real palace. Wow, a real palace in such a small town. But yes, a tiny bit east of the city centre there‘s a whol...

Spring Break


A gentle breeze, mild temperatures, the birds are singing in their trees and eagerly starting to build their homes for the coming season, the first flowers already craning their heads out of the green soil. Springtime. But this was yesterday. Long ago. 24 hours ago even. Today is a different day. Wi...

Gornergrat


This year I’ve made it to Zermatt another time despite all the hassle that a trip during COVID restrictions means and despite the still enormous price level that Switzerland but especially Zermatt are famous for. I complained about it a lot in one of my last blog posts here about the iconic local...

Fujiyama


After a long break I'm back with some new photos I took during the course of this ongoing pandemic. I hope you all are doing well so far. Let's hope we're getting through all of this soon. The order of these photos is not chronological anymore, I just start with those images that start to tell a lit...

Matterhorn


The Matterhorn and Zermatt belong together like skiing and snow. The Matterhorn is Zermatt, Zermatt is the Matterhorn. It’s even part of Zermatt’s public slogan, the byline says just “Matterhorn®”, nothing else but with a trademark sign. While St. Moritz on one end of the famous Glacier Express is t...

Some Snow


My series of posting a new blog entry every week is a little bit broken this time as I spent some days skiing in Filzmoos in Austria. So I hope you don't mind when this post is online a little bit later than usual. It's sometimes a hard to sit down and take the time to write these posts when you'r...

Seiser Alm


Following one of my earlier posts about the Palmenhaus I want to show you an image that's similar in terms of abstraction. Also this image is about nature as well. I love framing my surroundings in a way that makes it hard to exactly find out what you are actually seeing. And this image is no exce...

Making van Gogh


I‘ve been visiting the Städel Museum in Frankfurt last week. Currently there‘s a great exhibition about Vincent van Gogh called Making Van Gogh. So it‘s not just the images but also the stories behind the images that make this exhibition so interesting. And I thought that this is an excellent topi...

Palmenhaus


This image is one of my favorites of all time. It's very precious for me, it's like something to put in a treasure trove and take it out only for very special occasions. But since I decided not to be so shy and cautious about things living in the internet anymore, and since it's the beginning of a n...
