What do you do when you’re on a family vacation, when you’ve promised to spend time with the grandchildren and NOT with your camera and totally unexpectedly you almost stumble across some very photogenic caterpillars on your way home from the beach …
When I talked to my friend Silvia on the phone a week before our trip to Minas de Rio Tinto she had everything ready for our arrival in Andalusia - the cozy little holiday house and a freshly cleaned and filled pool were waiting for us and the sun was shining at very pleasant temperatures...
I still remember my first visit of Venice very clearly: the first ride on the Vaporetto from Piazzale Roma to Ca‘ Rezzonico close to my hotel. I was inhaling the salty air as much as the overabundance of all the visual impressions...
On our photo travel in Tuscany in November 2022 Ronny had told us about the many new photo locations he had discovered on his numerous strolls through the Lagoon town and in no time the idea of a new workshop - Venice 2.0 - was born...
On our first common winter trip to the Norwegian Lofoten Islands in January 2022 we had had a bit of bad luck with the weather - a lot of storms, rain, slush, snow and ice in motley succession. Time and again we were sitting in our admittedly very comfortable hut drinking coffee and baking yummy waffles instead of exploring the surroundings with our cameras…. That‘s why … and of course because we had enjoyed our trip anyway - Thomas, Hardo and I decided to give the photo travel to the northern part of Norway with Jens Klettenheimer another try...
Since my first visit in Kerkini in January 2018 I've come back 7 more times to this tiny village that is situated nestled in between the mountains on the shore of Lake Kerkini to the north of Thessaloniki...
These photos were taken during a special ICM Workshop in November 2015. Sometimes when during a workshop or a photo travel things don’t work out as well as I would have wished them to I let my pics rest for a while on the hard disc so that emotions can evaporate…These pics have been sitting untouched on my hard disk for more than 8 years...so much for that...
The first part of this very impressive journey with Thorge Berger brought us to Srinagar, the heart of Kashmir, where we slept on beautiful old houseboats right on the serene Lake Dal. We explored the town with its beautiful wood architecture, the mosques and its bustling little quarters where we could take pictures of merchants and workmen...
I love minimalism and I love high keys no matter what the subject is. Portraits, butterflies, landscape, birds - everything looks good to me in high key…
Summertime - time for butterflies which also means getting up around 4 o‘clock in the morning which is definitely not my favorite time to get out of bed….
In March 2022 I visited Rio Tinto for the first time. I had seen pictures of this Mars-like landscape on Instagram and was immediately and totally hooked. What I did not know then, was, how difficult it actually is to find one's way around in this mountainous arid and torrid region...
When my photo buddy Uwe and I met in December last year for yet another workshop with Ronny Behnert in Berlin we discovered that I had missed out to register for the workshop in Prague...well, Ronny fortunately made it possible anyway...
There are basically two different ways of photographing wildlife in Costa Rica: the classic way is to visit National Parks, take a guide and hope for the best...
I’ve been to Iceland 8 times so far always en route in all kinds of wind and weather with wanderlust, a thirst for adventure and my camera to catch special moments in this absolutely stunning country. But this time - the ninth time - was going to be a very different trip: for the first time I had brought a drone...
There’s a little forest in the Allgäu where you can photograph curious and rather tame squirrels as well as Nutcrackers from a very close distance “in the wild”. During the week and outside school holidays there’s a good chance to do that in peace.
I didn’t quite know what to expect when I booked a workshop on Helgoland…just got kind of talked into it…I wasn’t into bird photography and didn’t even know what Northern Gannets looked like. I wanted to see this tiny rocky German offshore island in the Northern Sea and test my new camera and telephoto zoom lenses…and then I fell in love with these magnificent birds which live as lifelong couples...
Although I had read a pile of books and travel guides about Japan before I boarded the plane to Tokyo, the “Land of the Rising Sun” just took my breath away…being so completely different from what I’ve seen before. We were extremely lucky in having perfect winter weather conditions – softly falling snow for the ballerina-like courtship dances of the Red-crowned cranes...
It had been my husband's long-cherished wish to return to this Greek string of islands which he had visited as a student and backpacker many years ago. Well, we found that the small white cubic houses with the blue doors and shutters and the many small white chapels with their blue round roofs have not changed at all over the years and neither has the breathtaking view of the steep crater wall...
Before I got the chance to get to know Ronny Behnert from Håggard Photography personally I had the pleasure to study his excellent book “Long Exposures – For Better Pictures from the Very Beginning” and to practice for two years what I was reading since it was almost impossible to catch a seat in one of his much coveted Venice Workshops...
As soon as I had set eyes on some photographs of Dalmatian Pelicans on the internet I knew that I was going to visit them, I was so deeply enchanted by them. Half a year later I was standing on the shores of Lake Kerkini...
On my first visit to the Delhi scrapyard I felt rather shy. I had no idea, how the people would receive me - me being a European tourist, a woman, a photographer. When I got out of the car my first impulse was jumping right back into the car as soon as I had set eyes on the many dirty workmen populating the streets and looking – what I thought quite hostile...
“I’ve often questioned myself, why Europeans are so nuts about India. Why they want to be there, to travel there, to put up with everything there. Clearly, India is not just a different country, India is a different continent, a different planetary system...
Handheld ICM photos from a trip to Venice in February 2015 and very few pics from a second trip in December plus the story why you should always carry your photo equipment yourself and how I made friends with the Venetian fire brigade…
…the shouts of the Venetian gondolieri to attract new clients are always ringing in my ears when I think of Venice. But there are so many more impressions and images floating before my mind immediately...
In January/February 2015 I had rented an affordable shabby apartment right on Canal Grande close to the Casino for 4 weeks. The apartment was situated on the fifth floor of an old traditional palazzo, I had to climb 96 steps and to unlock 5 doors to get there...
