Dog portraits, pencil drawings

December 20th, 2024

Dog portraits, pencil drawings

Detailed, realistic pencil drawings of animal faces. My love of dogs inspired me to create a series of portraits. I drew their heads in black and white with pencils. Creating the details with a dense network of lines and subtle shades of grey, I like to focus on the interplay of light and shadow. I find it particularly interesting to depict the typical facial features and poses of the dog and to highlight the fine structures of the fur. It is important to me to emphasise the expression in the eyes. My aim is to capture the character of our lovely companions and to capture special moments. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in individual pet portraits and commissioned work.

Bastei and Lilienstein in Saxon Switzerland

Bastei and Lilienstein in Saxon Switzerland

This post is dedicated to two of the most famous excursion destinations in Saxon Switzerland. The Bastei and Lilienstein mountains are also among my favourite hiking destinations in the east of Germany. There is direct visual contact between the two rock massifs. During my photo hikes, I captured the marvellous views of the Elbe valley and the vast landscape. Vibrant, summery colours and bright sunlight were omnipresent. In my opinion, the green treetops and fields form a beautiful counterpoint to the Saxon sandstone, which is characterised by erosion and the traces of time. The harmoniously curved course of the River Elbe and winding paths are also an eye-catcher in the landscape when viewed from an elevated position. I was inspired by the beautiful surroundings and captured summery perspectives on the summits of the Lilienstein and the Bastei mountains in Saxon Switzerland. Weathered sandstone meets vibrant shades of green. Discover the photos I took while hiking in the Bastei area and on the Lilienstein in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains collection.

Viewpoints in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains

Viewpoints in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains

On my hikes in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, I particularly enjoy the remote paths surrounded by nature. Along the way, I like to explore viewpoints and places that offer wonderful views of the rugged sandstone cliffs. Dense forests meet sandstone that is characterised by the traces of time. The striking rock formations fascinate me at any time of year. But I also like to capture the seasonal changes in nature.

I also find it very appealing to be close to the popular tourist destinations and at the same time enjoy the seclusion of the Saxon mountains. I have dedicated a photo series to the marvellous mountain landscapes, forests and rock formations in eastern Germany. With my photographs I would like to bring the scenic beauty of Saxon Switzerland and the Elbe Sandstone Mountains into your home.

Forests, tree roots and reflections in Germany

Forests, tree roots and reflections in Germany

The Magic Forest collection is dedicated to the impressions I have collected during my hikes on remote forest trails. When I spend my time in nature and explore the beautiful forests in Saxony with my camera, I like to capture special moments, enchanting light conditions and details with my camera.

I am fascinated by the magical interplay of light and shadow, as well as trees and their strong roots. When photographing, it is important to me to portray the originality and clarity that I perceive in the middle of the forest. I would like to capture the timeless beauty of nature that surrounds us every day. But the magic of the moment, which is part of the annual change and permanent transformation, also influences my work. Flowers, leaves, tree roots and abstract reflections in water are among my favourite subjects.

Cumbre del Sol II, Costa Blanca Spain

Cumbre del Sol II, Costa Blanca Spain

Clear sea water and rugged limestone cliffs.

Sea water flows over the rocks and reaches the coast. At the foot of the Cumbre des Sol mountain are rocky coves known for their crystal-clear water and imposing rock formations. Cala dels Testos can only be accessed via a tricky path that also leads to the climbing rocks. At this remote location, seawater meets rock that has been shaped by the power of water over many thousands of years. The sight of the rugged rocks makes me think about time and change in nature. Just above the bay is the Mirador dels Testos viewpoint. The plateau offers a fantastic view of the picturesque bay, which is surrounded by steep cliffs.

Nearby is Cala Moraig, where I like to spend time on the beach and look at the clear water. I am particularly inspired by the movements and reflections that give the surface of the water an abstract effect. In my opinion, the flowing water represents the beauty of nature, which is characterised by constant movement and change. The surroundings are defined by the light colours of the limestone, but also by the blue tones of the sea water.

When I'm on the Mediterranean coast, I'm particularly fascinated by details, the interplay of colours and the abstract textures of the water. I like to capture my impressions and the subtle changes in the water with my camera. This photo series is dedicated to the steep cliffs, but also to the movements and colours of the flowing water. Each shot shows a brief and unique moment, which in turn is part of the constant change in nature. With the beach scenes, I would like to bring the relaxing effect of seawater and the magic of the moment into your home.

Mountains around the Vall de Pop valley in Spain

Mountains around the Vall de Pop valley in Spain

The Vall de Pop valley is located in the north of the Alicante province and is surrounded by a fascinating mountainscape. Starting from the traditional villages of Jalón and Parcent, I explored some of the well-known hiking routes as well as remote paths. Inspired by the historic paths and the views of the picturesque landscape, I always had my camera with me.

"Green mountain landscapes and imposing rock formations." This photo series is dedicated to the mountain landscapes of the Sierra del Carrascal de Parcent, Penya Talai, Sierra de Bernia y Ferrer and Alt de l'Ample. The landscape is characterised by the green mountain slopes, imposing rock formations, the blue sky and the wonderful nature near the Mediterranean coast. Hiking along remote paths offers marvellous views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. The pictures are inspired by the tranquillity that makes hiking in the mountainous hinterland of the province of Alicante a very special natural experience. Rocks bear the marks of time and symbolise the pure beauty of nature.

My nature shots are inspired by long hikes. When I'm in the mountains and let my gaze wander into the distance, the clocks seem to tick a little slower. Over years, millennia, millions of years, the rocks have been moulded by Mother Nature. In my opinion, they symbolise the originality of nature, which existed long before man and will hopefully continue to exist for a very long time. With my photographs, I would like to bring the magic of the mountains into your home.

Sierra de Olta in Calpe, Costa Blanca Spain

Sierra de Olta in Calpe, Costa Blanca Spain

Hiking with beautiful views of Calpe, Benidorm and the Mediterranean Sea.

The summit of the Sierra de Oltà offers fantastic views of the Peñón de Ifach Natural Park, the coastal town of Calpe, the Sierra de Bernia mountain range and the Sierra Helada Natural Park in Benidorm. In my opinion, the combination of the weathered limestone cliffs that characterise the plateau of the Sierra de Oltà and the views of the blue Mediterranean is particularly attractive. The mountain range is located to the north-west of Calpe and is one of my favourite destinations for hiking and photography on the Costa Blanca.

Every time I am in the Sierra de Oltà and let my gaze wander into the distance, the clocks seem to tick a little slower. The local hiking routes with their viewpoints are very attractive, as you can see the touristy coastline as well as the surrounding mountains from an elevated position. With my landscape photographs I would like to bring the scenic beauty of the Costa Blanca and its enchanting mountains into your home.

Mascarat Canyon, Costa Blanca Spain

Mascarat Canyon, Costa Blanca Spain

Views of breathtaking rock formations and the Mediterranean coast. The Mascarat Canyon is a popular hiking destination on the Costa Blanca. The impressive canyon is located between the coastal towns of Calpe and Altea, as well as between the mountain ranges of the Sierra de Bernia and the Morro de Toix. There are interesting viewpoints between the rock faces.

The rock bears the marks of erosion and the force of the water. It has been moulded by Mother Nature over long periods of time. There is also a fascinating combination of rocks and bridges. As the canyon was a difficult barrier for people to cross for a long time, three bridges have been built here. Beautiful nature is combined with masterpieces of engineering at this location.

An excursion to the Cañón del Mascarat can be perfectly combined with a hike to the heights of the Castellet de Calp and the Morro de Toix. These are two excellent viewpoints on the Costa Blanca, where you can see the Mediterranean Sea and the mountains near the coast. The view towards the Sierra Helada Natural Park and the coastal town of Benidorm is absolutely stunning. But the mountain range of the Sierra de Bernia, the Sierra de Oltà, as well as the Peñón de Ifach and the coastal town of Calpe are also real eye-catchers. With my photos of the Mediterranean coast, I would like to bring the scenic beauty of the Costa Blanca into your home.

Penon de Ifach Natural Park in Calpe, Spain

Penon de Ifach Natural Park in Calpe, Spain

The coastal landscape of the northern Costa Blanca - viewed from the summit of the Peñón de Ifach. Views of steep rock faces, the blue Mediterranean Sea and the coastal town of Calpe. The Peñón de Ifach Natural Park is an excellent vantage point on the Costa Blanca. The ascent is undoubtedly rewarded with a fantastic view of the sea and the mountains near the coast.

The Peñón de Ifach Natural Park is considered the symbol of the coastal town of Calpe. In past eras, it was used by the locals as an observation post and to protect the coast from pirates. It was part of a surveillance system on the Valencian coast. Today it is a popular destination for hikers and climbers. The rock is the habitat of numerous bird species. I particularly enjoy watching the gulls. They either rest on the limestone cliffs or fly high above the sea. So this photo series is dedicated to a bird's eye view of the Mediterranean. With my photos of the Mediterranean coast, I would like to bring the scenic beauty of the Costa Blanca into your home.

Cumbre del Sol I, Costa Blanca

Cumbre del Sol I, Costa Blanca

A beautiful cove and impressive rock formations on the Mediterranean coast in Spain.

At the foot of the Puig de la Llorença mountain, better known as Cumbre del Sol, there is a wonderful cove. Cala Moraig attracts numerous visitors with its clear sea water, a small beach and imposing cliffs. In my opinion, the view into the cave called Cova dels Arcs is particularly impressive. Here, the power of the seawater has created fantastic rock formations. Rocks bear the marks of time. Over years, millennia, millions of years, they have been moulded by Mother Nature.

Cala Moraig is definitely one of my favourite beaches on the northern Costa Blanca. It is the perfect place for relaxing, swimming and daydreaming. I have therefore dedicated a photo series to this very charming destination on the Mediterranean coast. It is inspired by seawater, limestone cliffs and bright sunlight - but also by the power of the waves that wash over the rocky coastline and transform it. With my photos of the Costa Blanca, I would like to bring the blue tones of the Mediterranean coast and the beauty of the rocks and waves into your home.
