Mountains and more ...
I am a passionate mountaineer preferring trackless alpine hiking to unknown peaks, moderate glacier tours and lonely landscapes (S/W Alps and Pyrenees). When I changed from analog to digital SLR in 2004 I was immediately infected by panoramic photography which I always perform freehand. When I am not in the mountains or behind the monitor, I am addicted to triathlon, listen to classical music, love cooking, collect spanish red wine and indulge in gardeneering.
