Travels
"I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited." - Sylvia Plath
That's why I love traveling so much: I can't live all the lives I want but when traveling at least I get to cast a look at different lives in different countries albeit sometimes only a tiny glimpse...

10 Years of Visiting Venice
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 just as much as the overabundance of all the visual impressions...READ MORE

Photographing Venice 2014 -2024
Venice offers an incredible variety and abundance of photo opportunities for many different subjects. Street photography, architecture, minimalism, long exposures, the colorful masques and extravagant costumes of the famous Carnevale just to name a few. I've used this 10 years' "anniversary" as an opportunity to sort through my archives, to smile about some early not-so-good shots or processing results which today I would definetely do differently 😅 and to create new Venice galleries with newly processed photos:
Miscellaneous I
A mixture of cityscapes, "seascapes", street photography and colorful sunrises and sunsets from my first two trips to Venice
Black & White
City scenes, night scenes and street photography in Black and White from all my visits
Minimalistic I
Minimalistic long city-/seascape exposures from 2 workshops with Ronny Behnert and from several private visits
Minimalistic II
Minimalistic long exposures of fisher huts, poles and jetties mostly from the 2 WS with Ronny Behnert
Colorful
A collection of the most colorful pictures of this tiny picturesque island in the Venetian Lagoon from all my visits there

Lofoten Islands in Winter-Second Attempt
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 … READ MORE

A Photo Journey to the most Northern Parts of India -
Part I Kashmir
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... READ MORE

So close to the Sky: Nepal or:
You will never know what you're capable of until you take that first step and go for it...
In October 2022 I had the wonderful opportunity to accompany my photography friend Hardo and his wife Steffi on a trekking tour in the region Solo Khumbu south of Mt. Everest and to visit the home village of his friend Sonam and the Capital area of Kathmandu.

Far out in the Sea - the Faroe Islands
Far out in the Atlantic Ocean there is a group of small volcanic rocky islands - the Faroe Islands. Over the past few years they have become very popular among hikers and photographers likewise particularly during the summer months. In wintertime it's comparatively quiet and sometimes quite a challenge to move around the islands because of really harsh weather conditions. We spent there three weeks in February and really enjoyed the impressive winter scenery.

Burano - Color Explosion in the Venetian Lagoon
Way out in the Venetian Lagoon there's Burano, a tiny fishermen's island, and although it belongs to Venice it looks completely different. It’s been known for many many years for its colorful little houses which are reflected in the channels. The legend says that the fishermen have painted their houses so brightly so that they would find their way home in foggy nights or when they have had one too many.

Porto and Aveiro - Two Portuguese Gems
In February 2020 we stayed a couple of weeks in the West of Portugal to do some photo scouting and spent 4 days each in the bubbly and colorful Porto as well as in the less known Aveiro which is also called the Portuguese "Venice" because of its channels with the old Moliceiros which nowadays carry along tourists instead of salt or fish...

Santorini and Paros -
Two Cyclades Beauties
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... READ MORE

A Look behind the Scrap: Portraits from Delhi's Black Collar World
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. What a misinterpretation!! READ MORE

India - People and Places in Delhi, Agra and Rajasthan

Ladakh - Where the sky touches the Earth
In July 2016 I visited Ladakh for the first time with a small group of photographers and our wonderful guide Jigmet. I was deeply impressed by the friendly people, the backdrop of the mighty mountains and the tiny monasteries sitting right on top of them.

Carnevale di Venezia
In January/February 2015 I had rented an affordable shabby apartment in an old traditional palazzo right on Canal Grande close to the Casino for 4 weeks. I wanted to dive into the Venetian world with time, lots of time on my hands and to also experience the Carnenale di Venezia.

First Time in Cuba
Pictures from my first journey to Cuba with Peter Fischer from Freiraum Fotografie. With a very small and wonderful group of only 4 participants we started in the buzzling capital La Habana and travelled to the famous Valley of Viñales, Santa Clara, Camagüey, Holguin, Baracoa, Santiago de Cuba and Guardalavaca always under the professional guidance of Peter and our local guide Manuel. It was a very impressing and inspiring tour full of joy and fun with endless opportunities to take photos of this very special country and its friendly people.

Photo Travels to Rügen
This 7 days' winter photo trip to the Island of Rügen was my first tour with Freiraum Fotografie and actually a game changer for me. I had done a few photo workshops and a photo travel before and was not really happy neither with my progress nor with the results. This tour was a totally different thing: highly professional, perfectly organized, very good and motivated guides and a lot of fun AND photographic support. I enjoyed this tour so much that I came back the following year...
