Capturing the Soul of the melting giants: A Monochrome Journey with the Pentax K-3 III to the Swiss Mountains.
In the heart of the Swiss Alps, where rugged peaks kiss the sky and the crisp mountain air stirs the soul, I embarked on a photographic odyssey armed with a unique companion - the Pentax K-3 III Monochrome. This remarkable camera turned my journey into a monochrome adventure, allowing me to capture not only the awe-inspiring landscapes but also the eerie beauty of glaciers.

Interview with PetaPixel
In June, I was interviewed by PetaPixel about my long-term project, 'Botanical Studies.'
The article is titled 'Botanical Studies Series Shows Beauty of ‘Spiky, Round, and Edgy Things,’ and you can read it here:
Botanical Studies Squares
The idea originated over 10 years ago, inspired by the nature illustrations of Ernst Haeckel. Since 2017, I have been photographing botanical objects in this highly minimalist black and white style.
Inspired by countless sketches by Ernst Haeckel from 'Art Forms in Nature' (1899-1904) and Karl Blossfeldt's photographs from the 1920s and 1930s, the concept for my project 'Botanical Studies' was born. In this project, each subject is intentionally presented in a minimalist manner.
Abstracts & Patterns
For the year 2023, I will release a mini-collection once per quarter.
I will personally oversee the entire printing process and select the printing paper tailored to the subjects.
The photographs in this collection will be printed in formats Din A4, Din A3, and Din A2, using Hahnemühle FineArt Pearl 285gsm paper.

Portfolio Box 2023
"Botanical Studies"
Starting this year, I will be releasing a limited edition portfolio box once a year. This year I am dedicating the first edition to my long-term project on botanical studies, which contains 10 prints of my favorite motifs and I am printing in an edition of 50.
Each photo is printed by me with archival pigment ink using an Epson SC P800 onto an A4 sheet of Hahnemühle PhotoRag (308g/sqm). The size of the printed portion of the image is 26.7 x 19.0cm, with a thin white border surrounding the image. This portfolio contains a total of 10 prints that were created as part of my long-term project "Botanical Studies". The prints are delivered in a black Din A4 box (310mm x 225mm x 15mm) with a lid. To avoid plastic packaging and to protect each print, I will place P.A.T. certified interleaving paper between the prints.
