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.
Countless photos. Each with a story.
The longest country in the world

Photo series TIMELESS BURMA
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.

Table Mountain Expedition
Venezuela photo gallery
2 Min. Scientists called Venezuela’s Salto Angel waterfall the eighth wonder of the world. The dreamlike, yet mystical table mountains inspired James Cameron for his film Avatar. And I finally fulfilled my long-cherished No. 1 travel dream on my fourth attempt: a trip to what I consider the most spectacular landscape in the world.
A piece of France in the Indian Ocean
La Réunion photo gallery

Iceland extreme: volcanic eruption and ice bathing
Iceland photo gallery

Full of treasures: The 'Pearl of Africa'
Uganda photo gallery
< 1 Min. Where do you find something like that? Mountains growing out of the rainforest? Lions climbing trees? And gorilla visits that end (involuntarily) as wasp attacks!? Uganda is a sensation. The ‘Pearl of Africa’ surprises with its unimagined abundance of nature, wildlife and friendly people.

Family vacation in the Reka vacation village Bergün
