Hoher Ifen (2023)
One of the most unique and geologically interesting and layered mountains in the Northern Alps, including the extremely karst Gottesacker (aka God's Acre, aka Cemetery) plateau with deep caves... one of the areas I'm hoping to explore further this year...

The trail usually clearly visible was sometimes barely visible directly, but the landscape just showed th…

A winter wonderland unfolds in this ethereal forest scene, where tall evergreens stand sentinel over a pristine blanket of snow. Delicate mist weaves between the trees, softening the landscape into a dreamlike haze, while pale sunlight filters through the branches, casting a gentle glow on the untouched path ahead.

The trail, barely visible beneath the snow, invites exploration

Kellenspitze (2025)
(latest 8x6" Kallitype print from last night)
This mountain is the tallest peak in the Tannheimer Alps, here seen from a narrow ridge path in the north east. It was a fabulous warm day with so many mountain flowers in full bloom and clouds forming/drifting between the passes and nearby peaks, later developing into a heavy thunderstorm (thankfully only when I was already descending again...)

Phone picture of a 8x6" kallitype print of a large mountain peak partially shrouded in clouds forming around it. In the foreground is a narrow ridge with a very similar profile as the peak. A small group of low-growth trees next to it and a large valley running down and opening up from the pass on the left. Dark moody sky.

E.J.Hughes only wanted to be left alone to paint. He made hundreds of paintings in his 70 year career and lived long enough to hear on the telephone that one of his paintings fetched over $1m in his lifetime. Not many humans have that experience!
I was lucky enough to be invited to a preview at Emily Carr Uni - and I am very glad we went. Hughes was one of a kind!

There are a couple of waterside cabins and trees take up much of the top of the picture with a distant mountain on the left. The painter is E. J.

Shrub- and tree-lined islands in a murky green-brown lake. Behind them, a thin strip of land with palm trees, then blue ocean water.
Rows of some kind of cabbage-ish crop in a valley. They’re blurry from the speed of the train. The valley backs up to faded rugged mountain ranges, the first mostly bare, the one behind it with scrub.
View from above of a dark blue Amtrak train stopped on tracks built below grade of the round hill beyond, which climbs from trees to houses to a peak of mostly grass.
A set of rolling hills partly covered with shrubs, in other areas just grass. In the middle ground lowlying trees and in the foreground straw-yellow grass and dull green forbs.

A pretty famous geotope in the Allgäuer Alps with extreme folds and layering. The hundreds of meters thick top layer of mostly Dolomite belongs to the Lech valley thrust sheet (215 million years old) which got pushed above the Allgäu sheet below (190 million years old, here mostly covered by overgrown talus fields) and Radiolarite from the Ruhpolding formation even further below (160 million years old and originally 2000 meter below sea level — hard to imagine!).

'Blick von oben' #fotovorschlag 'view from above'
When I saw the topic, I wasn't sure wether I should post a mountin photo or not. But as I have seen so many others doing so, I decided to also post this "view from above" from ~3 months ago when I went to this mountain and enjoyed not only the silence but also the view.
Enjoy!

A breathtaking alpine panorama unfolds in this image, capturing the stunning beauty of a snowy mountain landscape. The foreground features a snow-covered slope, its pristine white surface glistening under the bright sunlight. Footprints in the snow suggest recent activity, adding a touch of life to the serene scene.

Scattered across the slope are clusters of evergreen trees, their dark green foliage providing a striking contrast to the white snow. The trees add texture and depth to the scene, …

Shot ...and chaser (and it's only Tuesday): Two new 8x6" prints done over the weekend, from one of my fave repeat hikes in the Allgäuer Alps...
Alpsee and view into the Lechtal Alps (November 2021)
Himmeleck mountain pass with Großer Wilder (October 2023)
I find the aesthetics of the Kallitype process are so nicely complementing the timelessness of these places...
For some of the next prints I will be switching to Rochelle salt as developer for supposedly even…

At this point I was already on my way back from the mountain. Next stop was this hut - from there on just some more walk with less elevation back to the car.
on the whole way back ... I think I just met one more person. Besieds that ... all silence and a lot of white.
#hiking #winter

A picturesque winter landscape unfolds in this image, capturing the serene beauty of a snowy mountain village. The foreground features a cluster of evergreen trees, their branches heavy with snow, adding a sense of depth and natural beauty to the scene.

Nestled among the trees are two quaint buildings, their rooftops blanketed in snow. The buildings, with their rustic architecture, exude a sense of warmth and coziness, blending harmoniously into the winter landscape. The snow-covered roofs and…

For today's #silentsunday I am thinking about wether I want to go to this place and take a similar photo (just now in winter) ... OR go to the place seen in the photo. 🤔
I might also have to check the nature & wildlife protection zones first.
Anyways - enjoy the rest of your sunday.
Oh, I even wrote a blog post about it:

A breathtaking mountain landscape unfolds in this panoramic view, capturing the majestic beauty of nature. The foreground is framed by the branches of evergreen trees, adding depth and a sense of immersion to the scene.

Beyond the trees, rolling hills covered in dense forests stretch out, their green and golden hues suggesting the transition between seasons. The hills create a natural amphitheater, leading the eye toward the towering mountain range in the background.

The mountains rise dramat…

#MountainMonday #LandscapePhotography #Alps

Photo of the imposing north face of a large pyramidal mountain peak, still mostly snow covered even down into the valley. The late afternoon sun is faintly highlighting some of the cracks and ridges in the snow. The silhouettes of some spruces in the foreground. Overcast gray wintry sky.

Solarization: Most digital photographers only know the effect as Photoshop filter, but here it's happening chemically in the darkroom... Created by extreme overexposure (here ~3x longer of my usual exposure time), the darkest parts of the image have become inverted, which in Kallitype then (temporarily) turns into these amazing orange tones, whilst the mids & highlights remain normal neutral grays, depending on developer used... During fixing and (especially) toning, the orange would…

A kallitype print of a mountain peak during early stages of development, still immersed in developer in a photo tray. The darkest parts of the image have become solarized and turned into shades of saturated rusty orange, whilst the lighter parts of the image can still be made out (ridges and clouds)

Remember that weird failed rusty red print I posted on Sunday? Seeing very early on that something went astray with the emulsion coating, I didn't fully develop the print (only dev and clearing, no fixer or toner) and just left it to dry, wanting to see what would happen to it...
Three days later, and it has turned into the strangest (but somehow exciting) result I've ever seen, burgundy with slightly blue highlights. It still seems to continue bleeding further into the paper, …

Slowly getting into a rhythm to start the day with doing a print each morning, each time still tweaking either negatives, concentrations and/or durations of different processing stages to adjust tones/hues... A new adventure with some back and forth each time!
This print is of Langkofel / Sassolungo, one of my favourite mountain massifs, just such interesting features and so many dear memories, here seen from the east (around half and hour before sunset)...

iPhone photo of a 8x6" kallitype print of a photo of the Langkofel mountain massif with its talus fields and some scattered pine forest in the foreground. The sky is filled with layers of small clouds illuminated by the evening sun. The picture is surrounded by a thick dark brown border of the exposed hand-painted photo emulsion.

Alpenhauptkamm (2025).
Near the central ridge of the Alps. Canon R7, CPF, unedited RAW (only cropped). Sometimes it just feels so unreal how colorful some mountain landscapes can be (even without polarization filter)...
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography

A high alpine mountain landscape, tundra zone with sporadic forest (Swiss pines and larches). The light gray rocky riverbed and mouth of a canyon carved by the former glacier here is surrounded by steep red walls of exposed bedrock. Higher up, grassy slopes in orange/brown autumn colors. Clear deep blue sky.

From a recent hike that I haven't yet blogged about - but I thought I'd just like to share it already with you.
The start of the hike wasn't in the snow but on top, there was still a good winter feeling.
Well, I hope you like it. Maybe it was the last winter shooting this season for me ...

A breathtaking alpine scene unfolds in this image, capturing the stunning beauty of a snowy mountain landscape under a clear blue sky. The foreground features a snow-covered path, partially cleared and bordered by high snowbanks, inviting exploration and adventure. The path is flanked by evergreen trees, their branches dusted with snow, adding a touch of natural beauty and depth to the scene.

In the mid-ground, a group of hikers can be seen making their way along the path, adding a sense of sc…

...on second thought, maybe let's not go to the mountains this weekend. Avalanche danger Level 4 (2nd highest grade) pretty much everywhere. Bit of an unusual sight, but not surprised, we had quite a lot of fresh snow in past three days, and it's getting too warm too quickly...
#Avalanche #Map

A hillshaded map of Tyrol (Austria/Italy), eastern Switzerland, Liechtenstein and south-west Germany, with most mountain areas shaded in red and with dozens of icons indicating avalanche warning level4 everywhere. Even in lower regions there's still level 3 indicated.

My last two #photos from my snowshoeing adventure!
These are from the way back. And as you can see the sun was nice and bright! On the way up it was more cloudy and not so bright. - And in the end I was happy that I had experienced both!
A video and the other photos are on my blog:

(From one of my favorite hikes last year, October 2025... a place of absolute solitude, harmony, peace and positive vibes, a feast for the eyes)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography

The upper part of a high alpine glacial valley in the most beautiful autumn colors with golden yellow grasses, small bushes with orange leaves, red patches of heather and blueberries, and small swiss pines dotted here and there. A small waterfall emerges between some of the rock cliffs. The snow capped peaks of large mountain in the hazy background. Clear blue sky with a single small white cloud

Made new test prints on some off-cuts, using a slightly stronger developer solution than usual to see impact on max. depth. The main image (Eagle Creek, Oregon) is using 18% sodium acetate (curve corrected negative), the test strips are of 20% and 15% solutions (both uncorrected). The phone capture doesn't really show the differences too well, but I think I will go for the 18-20% from now on...
(Btw. The original image is here:

iPhone photo of 3 printed pieces of paper on a table., the largest showing a kallitype print of a moody scene of a mountain creak flowing through a wintry forest canyon. Below the main image are two smaller test strips showing gradients and checkerboard patterns (partially cut off)

Entering the canyon
(Half an hour earlier we were sitting and basking in the sun at the top of those cliffs on the left...)
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography

View of a mountain creek near entering a deep rocky canyon section. Lush alpine forest (mostly Swiss pines) and small cliffs on the right hand side, craggy larger cliffs and bushes on the left. A lot of the vegetation is in beautiful autumn colors. Clear blue sky.

Toblinger Knoten / Torre di Toblin
(October 2024)
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography #Photography

View a large rock tower behind another lower mountain peak near a pass with a small chapel (good for appreciating the scale). The mountain nearest to the pass has visible tunnel openings at its base above the talus fields. These are remnants of the frontline from world war I. Massive cumulus clouds are forming in the background, above them clear blue sky. The entire scene is bathed in warm late afternoon light of October. All the grass patches have turned into a rich coffee brown.

Hoher Peißenberg (September 2024)
(From my series In The Lands Of Via Claudia Augusta, the ancient and most important Roman road through the Alps which connected the Po Valley in the south with Augsburg and the Danube as northern terminus)
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography

B&W wide-format photo of a hilly landscape in layers of fog and a larger mountain rising up behind a major fog layer in the distance. Only its built-up summit part (with churches, TV tower and other buildings) is visible. Layers of forest and fields in the lower foothills in the foreground.
