A last glance
Posted on Oktober 14th, 2015
The weekend shorttrip has ended, time to go back to the mountains.
Before I take you with me to my next trip in the mountains, a last glance over the light polluted flatlands with the milkyway over the horizon.
Meanwhile the autumn has arrived here in Switzerland and so I wallow in the memories and photos of the past extraordinary summer. But let us see, what next is coming…
A long way back
Posted on Oktober 12th, 2015
When you realize, that the way was longer than expected.
From the other side, it looks like a hop, but if you are on the way and you are walking, then you are walking until you reached your destination. Then you turn around and you see, how far you have to walk until you are back at your starting point.The highest hill at the horizon, was the point where I shot the last image. And a bit below you see the hotel, were I stayed over night and were I started today. It was thought as a short walk with Bubu and has ended with a four hours marsh. But I reached my destination on the other end of the hills.
The panoramic view from Roeti

The view from the lookout point near Solothurn, called Weissenstein.
It was a hot summer day, when I was walking with Bubu the dog, from the hotel to the highest point on this recreation area. This view to the east shows the tail of the swiss jura mountains.
You should see at least four cantons, Solothurn, Berne, Basel and Jura. And if you want to know, how high the temperatures were, watch my last image and ask Bubu 
It was a little afternoon walk, with Bubu and not a high mountain tour, except the running sweat was the same…
A hot summer has ended
Posted on Oktober 7th, 2015
This year we had a hot and fabulous summer here in Switzerland.
After the bad summers the last two years, this summer was superb and warm. For some of us maybe too warm, especially the furry guys had a warm time. But sometimes it was their own blame, nobody tells them to run around while the sun is burning on their fur, this means you Bubu!
Now it’s autumn and we will see, how beautiful this season will be.
The milky gleam
Posted on September 21st, 2015
After the high mountain tour, a weekend in the flatlands.
This image is for all of you, who think, why do I get not images of the Milkyway like Tom Fear does. That’s because you are not away from the light pollution and the high moisture of the lower atmosphere.
As you can see, here on 1000m on the Weissenstein in the Kanton Solothurn, you can barely see our galaxy. And you can also recognize why, because of all the many lights around you and towards the horizon. If you are looking closer, you can see the beginning of the alps.
And the next time, when you are annoyed about your starscape, think of me, I’m fighting with the same problems. If you want to solve this problem, then do it like me, drive to a less polluted area.
