At first, rain was predicted for the whole day. Nevertheless, a short detour to Colmar you can do, if it’s nothing, you can always go back. The first surprise was “great weather”. As if someone had sawed a hole in the clouds above Colmar. Superb, that leaves itself already well. This morning was weekly market, […]

A few selected travel experiences where photography was also involved
Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Haut de Ronchamp (Le Corbusier)
On the way back from Basel to Freiburg, we made a detour to Ronchamp. Here stands the pilgrimage church of Le Corbusier. Ok, more is not to be seen there 🙂
A little bit of architecture
I had picked out a few photo locations for architecture before the trip. On the German side, this was the Vitra Campus in Weil am Rhein. The light there was unfortunately already too bright, yet the Vitra Design Museum designed by Frank Gehry and the Vitra House. Unfortunately for us, there was a rubble […]
Freiburg in Breisgau
7-day vacation in the south of Germany, Switzerland and France. The border triangle with Freiburg as the warmest city in Germany is a good place for explorations into the area. And indeed, we were not disappointed weather-wise. Had it initially looked like we would have 50% of the time rain and overcast days, this was […]
Masuria – Video
The video of the trip is finished. I have also added the Dashcam videos of the fifth, sixth and eighth day (September 29 and 30 and October 2). It shows some flights with the drone, excerpts of some Dashcam shots, some video recordings with the Sony camera, two timelapse videos and some images taken […]
Masuria – Ninth Day
Last day in the beautiful Warmia-Masuria. A little bit of sunshine and you will feel better. One last short look in Sensburg and then back again. At the St.-Trinitatis-Church I did another 360° panorama at the end. Momento 360° VR Version Day-Trip On the last day we drove about 1200 kilometers. Destinations were Kętrzyn, […]
Masuria – Eighth Day
Even worse weather than the day before, but there are still a few cemeteries that we haven’t visited yet. And, we had success with it… In Bagienice we found what we were looking for for the first time. Here a cast iron cross for the siblings Johann and Marie Karpa was still to be seen. […]
Masuria – Seventh Day
Bad weather on this day. What remains? Drive to a few more places by car and see if it gets a little better from time to time. Momento 360° VR Version After breakfast I could fly again shortly in front of the hotel, but then grey clouds came up… We went via Lembruk to […]
Masuria – Sixth day
On the sixth day we made a second attempt to see the “floating islands” at Krutyń. The first attempt fell victim to the bad weather the day before. However, there is nothing floating there. I guess you have to spend a lot more time there to see it. After a short hike you reach the […]
Masuria – Fifth Day
The fifth day more or less fell victim to the bad weather. A few round trips to different cemeteries were the only thing we did. On one of the Piecki cemeteries we made again a nice find. But, the mentioned Emil Karpa is not yet listed in my family tree. Day-Trip On the fifth […]
