Countless photos. Each with a story.
2 Min.Between the Amber Mountains, red Tsingy rocks and windswept bays, Madagascar unfolds a mosaic of wonders. Almost every creature is endemic – from camouflaged geckos and cool chameleons to lemurs with Zorro masks. A vulnerable, dazzling island full of secrets.
2 Min.From turquoise glacial lakes to Europe’s largest underground canyon: this pictorial journey through Slovenia reveals hidden worlds. 300-kilogram brown bears roam rainforests, while deep below, blind amphibians glide through crystal-clear cave lakes. Nature as a work of art.
2 Min.Blue springs in the jungle, lava fountains against the evening sky – this visual journey through Vanuatu reveals a paradise without hustle and bustle, without traffic lights – but with plenty of nature and encounters.
2 Min.The Río Napo meanders through dense rainforests, howler monkeys herald the dawn, dazzling butterflies dance through humid clearings. At Sacha Lodge, nestled deep in the Ecuadorian Amazon, countless spectacles of nature unfold.
2 Min.The Camino Real, once a vibrant trade route between the Pacific and the Caribbean, is a hidden gem in the Panamanian jungle. Disappeared and overgrown for centuries, the original route was only rediscovered in 2008 and now allows adventurous hikers to travel back in time.
2 Min.Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, an ice stream that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a via ferrata that ends in a cave, delicious hut cuisine – the gorges, valleys and mountains of the Swiss canton of Valais offer plenty of history, delicacies and awe-inspiring sights.
2 Min.Blakiston’s fish owls, majestic sea eagles or codfish seeds in hot broth – Hokkaido offers something truly extraordinary. I was also amazed by the caffeinated noodles and the long-tailed tits that bring good luck. Particularly fascinated me the philosophy of the indigenous Ainu people.
2 Min.A capital framed by lush green jungle, with countless delicious restaurants, lush nature parks and colourful temples. Gigantic gorges with rushing rivers and paths only for those with a head for heights. Dark, silent forests with ancient giant trees. Beautiful lakes, mountain meadows and tea fields interspersed with seas of clouds. Welcome to Taiwan!
2 Min.The impressive basalt columns of Staffa Island inspired painters, composers and writers to create masterpieces. On Lismore you will find Duns, Brochs and shepherds, but no police. At Buchanan Castle, nature proves that everything is ephemeral, even the most magnificent buildings.
2 Min.In Valparaiso, we immerse ourselves in a vibrant culture that immediately captivates us. We then discover true natural beauty and breathtaking landscapes in Araucania. A truly contrasting journey.
2 Min.No other country has smuggled itself into my soul more persistently than Burma. I wandered through towns, caves, fields and monasteries, hiked to remote hill tribes and documented novice ceremonies, weddings and cremations.
The greatest discoveries were the people of Burma, their touching tolerance and warm-heartedness. With TIMELESS BURMA, I want to make the photographs appear timeless as well as these timeless values. It is my final declaration of love to the country and its people.
2 Min.Attention: Extreme! Under-ice-diving-in-Badebüx. Plus pictures of ice climbing and ice breaking from wintry Finland.
