Hawaii – Kauai – Waimea Recreation Pier
After spending a whole day at Polihale Beach (with huge waves) I stopped by at the Waimea Recreation Pier and photographed this scenery. Normally, the pier fishers are very busy to that time because this place is well known for pole fishing and crabbing. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the warm evening sun and I was ready for dinner.

Switzerland – Uri – Goescheneralpsee – Bergsee
Above the Göscheneralpsee, which is an artificial lake in the municipality of Goeschenen in Canon Uri, Central Switzerland, is this beautiful natural lake called "Bergsee" located. The hike to this lake is not very long but my legs will remember the many, many steps - my equipment is definitely to heavy. Nevertheless, I got rewarded by this beautiful scenery. By the way, staying over night was an easy game because a nice SAC "Swiss Alpine Club" cottage "Bergseehütte" is located next to the lake.
Enjoy the sunrise scenery.
Regards, Gerry
Switzerland – Zermatt – Lake Stellisee – Mt Matterhorn
The lake "Stellisee" is one of the more magnificent lakes in this area and can be easily reached from the Blauherd station in only 20 minutes. To capture the last evening or early morning light is an easy undertaking because a simple but very nice mountain hotel "Fluhalp" is situated very close to the lake. They are offering overnight stay possibilities from June to end of September and the food is excellent.
Despite the fact that this sunrise shot was an easy undertaken, I really enjoyed the fresh air and the colors.
Enjoy the morning silence.

Hawaiian Beauty
Kauai is the green island or with other words "Garden of Eden". The island offers you on the one hand spectacular sceneries but on the other hand the Hawaiian exotic flowers are really breathtaking. So let's start with a Plumeria or also known as the Lei flower.
Enjoy the beauty.

Hawaii – Kauai -Taro Field
The flooded taro field, called kalo lo'i, is an ancient way of life in Hawaii. I visited this place many times and never was the reflection or the view of the mountains that perfect.
Enjoy the morning reflection.

Hawaii – Kauai – Hanalei Sunset Pier
Hi folks
I want to let everyone know that I'm back from my vacation now. Kauai is really a special exotic destination. Yes, traveling from Europe to Hawaii isn't a short weekend trip but it's really worth. Once you are there you will be rewarded with wonderful impressions which are really unique. So, the pleasant part, having the pleasure and making photographs is over and now starts the real work - post-processing. So, let's start with a first sunset shot "Hanalei Sunset Pier" which I took in Hanalei. The luck was a little bit on my side because the moon was rising to the same time.
Enjoy the sunset.
Regards,
Gerry
Kauai: Aloha !
It tooks me 28hr to travel to Kauai ... but it's really worth it. So, I'm here for the next three weeks and therefore I'm more or less offline. Enjoy "my" first sunrise at Kapaa beach and CU in three weeks.
Aloha!

Switzerland – Uri – Seenalpersee Trilogy: Before Sunrise
Finally, the summer is coming and the melting season progresses very fast. Well, I had to wait nearly 6 months and now the mountain season has been kicked off - yeaahh. So, here is my result of the last two days. Enjoy the beautiful mountain arena. By the way, I captured this scenery just before sunrise and it's a panorama of 6 photographs.

France – Bretagne – Ile d’Ouessant – The Gardien III
A high-key long shutter composition (around 120 sec) of one of the many lighthouses at Ile d'Ouessant. The various shades were created by the heavy tide change and its streaming.

Ile d'Ouessant is an island located at the west of Brittany and measures around 5km x 8km. It can be reached by ferry or airplane (Cessna sized). The rough shoreline and the huge lighthouse is really breath taking.
Enjoy a 128 sec view

France – Bretagne – Floating Thoughts
I was waiting for a gorgeous sunset .... but it shouldn't be the case. The sun was setting down without any spectacular colors .... and my thoughts floated away...... to Heli.
Suddenly, back to reality, I saw this rock in a perfect back light position.... and I had the pleasure to push the shutter for about 124 seconds.

Gerry
France – Bretagne – Lighthouse of le Conquet
The lighthouse of le conquet is one of the many that dot the shore of the rough coast of Brittany.
I captured this photograph round about 30 min after sunset and opened the shutter for about 32 seconds to get the smooth surface of the sea.

Gerry
Bretagne – 20 sec inner Peace
This fisher was moving around and never stopped longer than 2 sec at one place. But after a while he found his inner peace for about 20 seconds. Enough for my long exposure
Enjoy it.
