    The rain clouds lift and show what beauty they have strewn across the higher mountains in our region.

  • Simply Yannick

    A portrait of a friend and work colleague, shot for a work project earlier this week.

  • Shots from a day trip to the small, local alpine ski resort of Melchsee Frutt in canton Obwalden.

  • Alphorn on the Bonistock

    A lone musician plays alphorn music on the Bonistock mountain peak, high above the lake and village at Melchsee Frutt in canton Obwalden.

  • Above the clouds

    The “Nebelmeer” (lit. sea of cloud) is a fabulous meteorological phonemenon at this time of year, caused by a band of dense cloud sealing cold air beneath it in alpine valleys.

    The single track road from Stöckalp in the Melchtal valley up to the ski resort of Melchsee Frutt is… an experience.

  • Photos from a day on the road, travelling a total of around 720 kilometres from our home in Switzerland to the Black Forest in southern Germany.
