Each time we visit Tenerife, we must go up to enjoy the panorama view of the Teide volcano at least once. I find it magical every time. The drive up there. The changing landscapes once you’re on the high plateau. The feeling of being on a different planet. It’s no surprise that movies such as […]

When we visited Lagos on our Christmas trip, not only did I capture the beautiful Christmas decorations of the city, but I also had a look at the Lagos Fortress called “Forte da Ponta da Bandeira”. Lagos was an important town in the history of Portugal. It’s very typical to find such Fort near any […]

Moby Dick at Tegeler Hafen is another piece of my childhood history. Growing up near Lake Tegel was pretty cool. I always loved being around water and dreamt about living with a view of the lake. My grandparents would take me on a trip on one of these boats every summer. Pretty often, we took […]

As you know, I always try to book a hotel with a view. In Manhattan, that was a must for me. Immense gratitude to the Residence Inn New York Manhattan/Central Park that gave us a corner room with which we could not only view Times Square but could also capture this photo of the so-called Billionaires’ Row. […]

Macy’s Herald Square. Gosh, this shopping mall killed me. No, not as you might expect. Not because Daria had to go shopping for dresses. It was just that I’m a sucker for colours. And I absolutely loved how they installed the rainbow colours for the Pride celebration at Macy’s. When we walked down Broadway and […]

Grand Central Terminal was high on my must-visit list for New York City. As a traveller, train stations have always fascinated me. And this one has become so iconic, displayed in so many movies, that I had to see and capture it for myself. As I walked around, I couldn’t help but wonder just how […]

The Central Park in New York. First, I wanted to capture it from above. Thanks to the great team at the Marriott Residence Inn, we could make this happen by having access to the rooftop. Next was actually to get into Central Park and experience it. It’s hard to describe how massive it is, just […]

When we arrived in New York, I quickly missed some nature. Yes, there is Central Park, but not from everywhere that’s quick to reach. In Berlin, I was used to “Decentral” parks – all over the city. So I was pretty happy when we finally spent some time in the High Line Park. It’s a […]

Castle Hill Light is a lighthouse that has become a symbol of Newport and is one of the most visited landmarks at Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island in the United States. It is said to be a frequent spot where marriage proposals are made. And, of course, later wedding photo shoots take place. Castle […]

Yesterday I already showed you a photo of the Trump Tower with the iconic clock, today we have a look inside! As you can see in this photo of the Trump Tower Interior, it hosts a little “museum”. Or a collection of memorials. It’s all about Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United […]

It’s more controversial to say this in 2023 than it would have been in 2013: Visiting Trump Tower was a must-do for me when visiting Manhattan for the first time. I still remember watching “The Apprentice” with Donald Trump in 2010. Or better, binge-watching it. Before that, my dad was gifting me a book “Think […]

With this photo from the so-called Sechserbrücke in Alt-Tegel, I wish you all a happy new year! This is a special photo for me and fitting to be the first published photo of 2023. 2023 will be the first year I’m officially and totally out of Berlin and out of Germany! Did I say I […]

Wishing you a wonderful Christmas! In 2020, we had our first Christmas under palm trees, Christmas in the Algarve. Travelling between Portugal and Germany was impossible, so we made the best of it. We booked an Airbnb in Ferragudo end explored the Algarve for the first time since we moved to Portugal. Part of it was […]

The Menorca night sky is perfect for night photography or just for casual stargazing, with clear, dark skies that make it easy to see constellations even with the naked eye. In fact, in 2019, Menorca became a Starlight Reserve and Starlight Destination, these are official designations awarded by the Starlight Foundation that recognize places where […]

We have already dedicated one article about La Seu – the main cathedral in Palma, Mallorca. In the previous photo, however, Nico has mainly captured this Gothic cathedral with its adjacent moat. This shot was taken from the park by the port of Palma. Thanks to the wider perspective, the Royal Palace of La Almudaina […]

Times Square in Manhattan is known as “the crossroads of the world,” or modestly as “the centre of the universe.” Sometimes it is more poetically referred to as “the heart of the Great White Way.” And who isn’t familiar with shots of this corner of Manhattan during the annual New Year’s celebrations? These terms […]

The “Internet City” is something of a town-district in Dubai. It is here that some 1,600 companies have their offices in a rather small space. They are mainly technology companies, and some of them are on the Fortune 500 list. Dubai Internet City office buildings opened their doors to these corporations in 2000. To […]

These skyscrapers just in front of Central Park in New York are some of the most exclusive apartment buildings in the world. Because they are located almost on one street, this part of Manhattan is called “Billionaires’ Row“. Nico captured this view of Central Park and Billioners’ Row, thanks to the courtesy of the Residence […]

Burj Khalifa (formerly known as Burj Dubai) in Downtown Dubai is the tallest building in the world. Including the antenna, this skyscraper measures 829.8 meters. The number of exciting facts and controversies associated with the Burj Khalifa is rich. Let’s look at a few of them. The first name of this skyscraper, when work […]

We discovered this view of the Burj Khalifa by accident while walking around Downtown Dubai. We were lured to this corner by the many restaurants with offbeat recommendations and the appearance of buildings taken out of an Arabian fairy tale. Downtown Dubai was built by the same developer as the Burj Khalifa – EMAAR. […]

This panorama of the Mallorca Cathedral in Palma, captured at this angle, reminds me of… a fish. Or, in truth, from the lens perspective, when Nico wanted to capture the entirety of the Cathedral in Palma, including the surrounding moat. A task not easy – the size of this cathedral is 121 meters long, 40 […]

Peniche is one of Portugal‘s most important seaports, and the Cabo Carvoeiro lighthouse is one of the city’s significant landmarks. However, it is not a monument in the typical sense, as the lighthouse is still functioning. It has allowed sailors to dock safely in Peniche’s harbour for more than four centuries until today. The […]

We spotted this “elephant” while on our way back from Berlengas Island to Peniche, Portugal. Although we were traveling by speedboat at a dizzying pace (almost flying over the waves of the Atlantic) the captain of the boat slowed down at this rock formation and allowed Nico to capture the Berlengas Elephant at sunset.

The Fortress of São João Baptista on the island of Berlengas near Peniche has tempted Nico for a long time. The problem is that there are usually a lot of visitors around the fortress who enter Nico’s frame. So, the best time of year to visit the São João Baptista fort is winter. The trick […]
