Photoessay. Baden, Switzerland. November 27, 2019.
Every last Wednesday before the first Advent we celebrate “Liechterwecke” (translated something like: ‘arousing lights’) in Baden. This time my daughter Olivia (14) wrote an article about this tradition.
Photoessay. Zurich, Switzerland. December 7, 2019.
After saying goodbye to my students to the weekend yesterday evening I spent another hour to make use of the interesting perspective from my classroom on the 4th floor to the building site right opposite and to the surroundings. But the best view was bottom up, imo.
Photowalk. Niederweningen and Zurich. Switzerland. November 30, 2019.
How often have I been rushed from meeting to meeting, flying over the streets of Zurich and was missing many inspiring moments? Yesterday I had a day off and I took my time to stroll through the streets of Zurich. As a compensation – at least some kind of.
Eek, smoker ahead! Some take cover, others snap out their camera and shoot.
Creative breathings between my coaching units. Bern. Switzerland. Photoessay. November 22 and 23, 2019.
Last weekend I was in Bern for a two-days coaching for one of my customers. As usual I was quite early in the morning to make sure everything was ready for the day, so I decided to slow down before the coaching and photograph the street lightning of Wankdorf square first.
My last week was crazy stuffed with work, unbelievable short bedtimes in impersonal and desolate sterile hotel rooms – I was more than busy with my customers. Nevertheless it was a good week with some very quiet moments before and after the coaching.

Photographing in pouring rain is pure fun – even more if passers-by are curious, what you make an image of – but won’t ask you because they worry getting wet in the rain while they ask you. 🤭 The Scaffold!
Ticino, Switzerland. Photo storytelling, 11 October 2019.
Especially during the summer months the frenzy of thousands of cars on the highway heading north comes to an abrupt end as they get stuck in the omnipresent traffic jam south of the 16.8 km long Gotthard Road Tunnel (map, Wikipedia), which connects the swiss-italian part with the swiss-german part of Switzerland.
This time we wanted to make it better and decided for slow travelling to the North having a break here and there and everywhere, avoiding the motorway and taking our time.
Denti della Vecchia
Did you know the Denti della Vecchia, the massive geological mountain formation near Lugano – a true hiking and bouldering paradise? In all those years I must have made thousands of images of the beautiful Denti della Vecchia – but today the scenery was absolutely spectacular with the sunrays and shadows in the sky.
