Schwarzbubenland

The watermark won't appear on final print. All sizes are in inches (1 in=2.54 cm).
Important! If you're on a wide-gamut monitor make sure to set your colour profile (ICC-profile) for web to sRGB otherwise the colours are fully stretched and my photos look oversaturated which they are not.
The only other solution for wide-gamut monitors is to use Firefox and set the gfx.color_management.mode to 1. Type about:config, press enter and do as advised.
So far no other browsers provide colour management. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Grindel Without Forest
Stürmenchopf And Magical Light
I like the shape of Stürmenchopf (769 m/2'523 ft), a hill with a „pointy“ peak covered completely by forest. There is a path up there but you won't get any nice views because of the trees. What I tried here was to „frame“ the hill. Which wasn't an easy task. Finding anything on a field was hard enough. And I feared the farmer wouldn't like me stomping around on his field. Luckily, he didn't see me. I came upon this fallen tree which hasn't be moved away and I used it to frame Stürmenchopf.
Secrets Of The Black Arts
The weather looked promising on that day and I went out to capture a sunset. Unfortunately, the sun hid behind the clouds most of the time. I didn't let myself down because of that and set up my gear nonetheless. All I had to do now is wait and hope. My hope sank as more and more clouds piled up. But all of a sudden, a gap in the clouds opened and a beam of bright sunlight hit the hill to my right. I couldn't believe what I saw, it looked unreal. Like a scene out of a dodgy science fiction movie. I quickly pivoted my tripod to the right, composed the picture and shot. Thankfully, I already had my camera ready to shoot otherwise I wouldn't have been able to capture this spectacle of nature. It only lasted a couple of minutes and was gone as quickly as it showed up. After that it started to rain.

Mirror Of Water
Reinacher Heide is a nature reserve between the villages of Dornach and Reinach. I strolled along the river Birs in the nature reserve when all of a sudden this magnificent light appeared. I stormed through the underwood to the shore and set up my tripod very fast, mounted my camera with a CPL and a Lee Hard Grad 0.3 on it, composed the picture and shot. After three minutes or so the light was gone, I was only able to shoot one photo. Thankfully, the image turned out fine.
And Soon There Will Be Gloom
Since 150 years cherry trees shape this landscape above the village of Arlesheim. In April they were in full bloom.
