view of almost the entire South Tyrol as well as of the mountains in Trentino, Lombardy and Austria. Last but not least, you can
admire the breathtaking peaks of the nearby Dolomites.
One cannot write about the Dolomites without mentioning the magnificent lakes that are dotted around the entire area. One of
the most famous is Lake Braies (Pragser Wildsee) also known as the “Pearl among Dolomite lakes”. The emerald green lake became
famous in the last years due to the Italian television series “Un passo dal cielo” starring Terence Hill and is extremely popular
photographically due to it’s incredibile beauty.
Other lakes that are magnificent are lake Dobbiaco (Toblachsee) and lake Landro (Durrensee), both in pristine condition, with
incredible colours and both surrounded by the peaks of the Dolomites.
All these areas are very special to me and fill me with immense joy, and continue to inspire me to photograph. I quote one of my
favourite authors, John Muir, the father of conservation and mountain lover: “The mountains are calling and I must go”.
