Switzerland – Engadin – Lago di Saoseo – Cat Ice Time
We got some snow in the mountains this week and I guess it was the last opportunity this year, to photograph some nice reflections at Lago di Saoseo. As soon as the sun goes down the temperature is way below freezing level and you can watch how quickly the lake gets covered with cat ice. So, it's cat time ...

Croatia – Long road to the Mali Halan Pass
The long road to the Mali Halan Pass offers a scenic view to the Mount Tulove Grede. Driving through this highly karstic area was on the one hand very exciting, but on the other hand the hundreds of mine field warning signs .... created a strange feeling. So, hiking is definitely not recommended!
Enjoy the ride.

Switzerland – Fronalpstock
I photographed the Fronalpstock from the top of Grosser Mythen. Enjoy the delicate morning light.

Switzerland – Saentis – Full Moon Night – 20:41
Same location - just a little bit later with a different mood.

Switzerland – Saentis – Full Moon Night – 20:13
Same day, just a couple of hours later and another mountain. This was indeed an easy undertaking. The Saentis is just an one hour drive away and the cable car brings you to the top of the mountain. Well, the sunset wasn't so wonderful because of heavy fog/clouds but to my luck the other side offered some interesting opportunities - photographing the full moon.
Enjoy the view.

Gerry
Switzerland – Grosser Mythen – 06:45am
Well, my initial plan was to photograph a sunset scenery from the top of the Grosser Mythen (check the link and you can see the mountain) but the weather was (let's put it that way) not so perfect. So I changed my plans and stayed over night at the top of the mountain. As you can imagine, the mountain cottage was still closed. It was quite windy and chilly but my sleeping bag did a fantastic job. And yes, the morning scenery was significantly better the evening.
Regards,
Gerry
Switzerland – Seenalpersee – Melting Time !
Perfect weather conditions and my new Hassy were the reasons for this early spring hike to the lake "Seenalpersee". Well, the way up to the lake took longer than expected due to deep soft snow fields. Yes, I missed the sunrise but the scenery compensated for it. Despite the bright sun and the strong contrasts the medium format sensor did a fantastic job.
Some additional informations:
- Hasselblad H4D-40
- HC 28mm 2.8
- f16
- 1/250
- ISO 200
- pano of 4 single exposures
... and yes, the files are huge!
Enjoy it.

Switzerland – Goeschenenalpsee – Salmon Pink Morning Scenery
Being in the mountain, smelling the fresh air and enjoying the morning light is worth every effort .... to get there
Enjoy the morning scenery.

Switzerland – Zermatt – Matterhorn – Stellisee – 370 seconds
I photographed this scenery long before sunrise. As you can see a couple of light sources at the Matterhorn, there are a numerous climbers on the way to the top of the mountain.

Switzerland – Zermatt – a special Moment in Life
I had the pleasure to stay another night at Stellisee and to photograph this special morning mood. The night was unbelievable clear and the stars including the view of the "Milky Way" was breathtaking. Before I closed my eyes I saw three falling stars ...and I did make some wishes.
So, enjoy the special morning mood which lasted only a couple of minutes - a peaceful moment in life.
Regards,
Gerry
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.

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.
Regards,
Gerry
