- Towards the evening spectacular cloud formations stretched out above the Cuernos of Torres del Paine. The contrast between the power of Patagonia and the vulnerable tents once again establishes how nature can be so intriguing.

- It was a very foggy windless morning when I visited my favorite place close to home. The waterfowl already had some spring jitters. During my routine walk I came across this couple Canada Goose. I thought it was funny to see as they played a game of hide and seek. I waited patiently to capture this moment with the Geese on the right place in the frame.

- Driving through hours and hours of steppe with Kazakh colleagues in January we stopped on the side of the road to stretch our legs in -30 C temperatures as the winter sun descended. From a village to the east, barely visible from the main road, came a Kazakh rider, galloping through the frozen grass. I was able to capture a series of beautiful photos as the rider passed beside us and on towards the sunset, heading to who knows where across the steppe in the bitter cold at sundown.

- After years of waiting, one of the most popular industrial metal bands, Rammstein, was finally in Istanbul, headliner of the first day at Sonisphere festival. As the stage turned to passionate red,pink crowd got darker. There's no way i can describe the excitement, the ecstasy and the longing for that day better than this photograph.
