Carnevale in Venice

I don't like things like our Austrian "Fasching" or even worse, the German "Fassnacht". I hate this enforced gayness and happiness. I also think that most costumes are not funny at all and I never dress myself in such a way. BUT: in contrary to our Fasching, I do like the Carnevale in Venice, although it is for sure a very big tourist attraction and there would be better days to visit the city, which probably sinks a couple of centimeters every year during this season. Alright, 'nough said. The masks don't make single sound and so should I. Enjoy the visual feast.

Nepal Photo Book

And this is the latest photo book. It is a photographic compilation of pictures from our Nepal trip, trekking around Dhaulagiri, attempting Dhampus Peak (and surviving storm, freezing temperatures and acute mountain sickness for my part), and finally hiking to the Annapurna Base Camp. Included are also some pictures from Kathmandu - a city I somehow enjoyed quite a bit - and pictures from the Buddhist village of Marpha in the Kali Gandhaki valley where we had the huge luck to be right there at the annual lama dance festival!

Greenland Photobook

If there's anyone interested in a photographic Greenland-Book, see this page for more details. There's a hardback with many pictures and pages available as well as a quite cheap softcover with less pictures and a short introduction in English.
