Golden light over the Appenzell

Posted on Juli 2nd, 2014

After a long period of waiting for good weather, predicted the weather forecast, at least one beautiful evening. Okay, go for it and what can I say, the weather gurus were right.
While I was climbing up to the peak of the Faehnerenspitz, the sun was going down at the horizon and throw the golden light on the landscape. Well, this had to be photographed, who knows when you can see the sun so clear and cloudless at a sunset.

A spring sunset in Appenzell

Posted on Juni 14th, 2014

It was a warm and sunny day in April, when I decided to stay a night in the nature at the Appenzell region in Switzerland. After I drove as far as I can up to the hill, I had to walk another several hundert meters of altitude difference up the hill to the peak of the Faehnerenspitz.
This time I was early enough to take pictures of the sun, the sun setting, the dusk and of course the starry night. This image was taken on the highest point and you can see the Säntis on the left and the city of Appenzell on the right. On the peak of the Säntis you can already see the light of to rising fullmoon.
