After an hour of hiking past the Grimselpass/Totensee, we set up our cameras at 2500m. Although we had arrived to that spot to see the blood moon rise right above the mountains, clouds on the horizon delayed when we got our first glimpse of red light. Still, the clouds that were there allowed for a colorful sunset. The dramatic lighting of the sun lasted for mere seconds. It is a reminder that sometimes, beautiful things only last for a short while so we should try our best to enjoy them while they last. Enjoy!

The Belvedere Hotel was built in 1882 and was a popular attraction for the adventure-minded for many decades. I’ve been obsessed with this spot since I first saw a photo and had to make the drive up! it was well worth it.

At this rate, it will soon be gone for good.

Had the opportunity to fly the drone around and snap some shots from above in Switzerland. I really love the scale the mountain towns can offer as they are surrounded by amazing peaks and ranges. The houses look so minuscule in comparison to the grand mountains.

We were wandering around Grindelwald aimlessly while we ran into this church. After looking around, I decided to pull the drone out and grab a few shots. The epicness of the Eigar, Jungfrau and Monch surrounding this church and town was amazing. I had never felt this much of a grand presence and feel blessed to have been able to experience this.

Hiking in Haslital, Switzerland on a sunny afternoon. Because it was too bright and the mountains in the back were almost washed out I decided to change the pictures to black and white and punch the foreground.

Even though we were surrounded by snow, it felt warm. The sun reflected and bounced off the snow to cover us in warmth. At this elevation in Switzerland, you feel almost in the clouds, it’s surreal. And yet, it’s a simple train ride to the top, no climbing gear needed.

I took this photo on the decent from the Breithorn/Valais after a beautiful camp night in the wild. Perfect spot to light up a big bonfire with friends and celebrate the Swiss National Day!

After a 3.5 hour hike we reached our goal for the day. Capanna Cadlino. A hut managed by the SAC (Schweizer Alpen Club / Swiss Alpine Club). Opening Times are from mid of June until mid of October. The hut is located at 2570m above sea level. It has around 80 beds and you can stay there for free, if you make it over the slack line without falling into the water (which is below the slack line) =) More information: http://www.cadlimohuette.ch/cadlimo-huette/

If you are on a hike over noon. Normally the light isn’t really good. But if you have beautiful clouds hanging in the sky, they will cast some nice shadows on the ground. This one is taken at Lago Ritom in Ticino. A beautiful Hike up to the Capanna Cadlimo.

Ever gone to Switzerland? It’s a great place to just wander off somewhere and to get completely lost in the mountains. That is what we did here. This way you can sit and marvel at the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau in total solitude.

After snapping some photos from the window room, I lied on the bed to rest my legs for a while. After 20 minutes, I saw the last rays of light coloring the top of the Jungfrau and could not help myself snapping more pictures while sitting on the bed.

Lauterbrunnen is situated in one of the most impressive trough valleys in the Alps, between gigantic rock faces and mountain peaks. With its 72 thundering waterfalls, secluded valleys, colourful alpine meadows and lonely mountain inns, the Lauterbrunnen Valley is one of the biggest nature conservation areas in Switzerland. J.R.R.Tolkinen hiked from Interlaken to the Lauterbrunnen Valley in 1911. The landscape later provided the concept and pictorial model for his sketches of the fictitious valley of Rivendell.

Me and my girlfriend woke up at 3.00 am to watch the sunrise on a mountain called Fürstein. We made it to the top just in time and we had a great 360° view of the bernese alpes.

Between snow and sun, I had to catch the perfect moment when it wasn’t too windy. On this day at “Simplon-Pass” (sempione in italian) it was really awesome to fly over a lot of White, new snow… On the side of the roads were at least 2.5m of snowwalls. The only sad thing about this adventure was that I couldn’t drive myself up there in a powerful car - instead we took the bus but there were still very amazing views!

After about one hour of hiking in the Swiss Alps, me and my friends made it to this gem of lake. We waited over two hours till the wind was not blowing that much. Suddenly the fog rolled in.

One of the most impressive lakes in Switzerland I’ve visited! We were photographing around the lake when suddenly the fog rolled in. It was an incredible amazing mood.
