The Saechsische Schweiz and the Elbsandsteingebirge is one of the German National Parks and perhaps the most important tourist destination in the eastern federal states of Germany. Moreover it plays a big part in the development of the german romantiscism as a period in art and poetry.

This was reason enough to start another longer lasting project. In the beginning it was a real challenge to understand how to do justice to this famous region of Germany.

For me the Saechsische Schweiz is vistas and rock formations, but also primeval forests and hiking paths in enchanted valleys. But judge on your own....

 

I will be back in autumn, when the leaves will be colorfull, the fog will be billowing....

I am so far quite happy with my work, but I still did not find suitable spots to show the relationship between the river Elbe and the Elbsandsteingebirge. Whoever may read this, do not hesitate to contact me, if you know any spots....
