A night at Lago Bianco

A night at Lago Bianco

The stay at Lago Bianco was almost perfect for night fotography. Without the bad weather on the Wallis side, sending some clouds over the pass every then and when. But it's finally the same story as during the day: A cloudless sky often leads to boring pictures... Star trail shot…

About

After not having worked together on a project since highschool, this blog has sprung up from a random idea we had on our last get-together. We both like exploring the world, capturing our experiences in frame and so we decided to present some of our work in the form of this blog.

this is not photography - these are interpretations of our impressions.

Summer 2014
