Out in the Alps

The Alps are a place I return to again and again. Walking matters to me as much as the landscape. After hours on the trail, the way I look at things changes. My camera usually comes along, but being outside and moving comes first.

In these pictures, I look for quiet, open space and the feeling of having a moment to myself. Still paths, broad surfaces and room in the frame reflect that. The photographs remain closely tied to the experience of walking.

If the series makes you want to head out yourself, I am glad. It does not have to be a big hike. Sometimes it is enough to take your time and see what you encounter along the way.
