Nature nominee

For the second time I was drawn to the solitude of the Rub al Khali, the largest sandy desert on our planet, in the south of Abu Dhabi. From the very first visit, I fell in love with the endless dunes, the waves in the sand and the stark contrasts when the sun was low in the sky. It's not always easy to find the structures in the dunes and the position of the sun makes a huge difference - a motif that you had just passed half an hour before suddenly develops an exciting dynamic...

Hello! I am Judith...

I would like to call myself an “ambitious amateur photographer”. My main focus is nature and landscape photography, but I also like to make detours to other genres.

Everything I know about photography is self-educated. A few books here, some internet research there, inspiration from the works of other photographers and a lot, really a lot of trying things out has brought me to where I am today.

My great happiness is my home on beautiful Lake Constance, where I have a lot of photo spots right on my doorstep and the way to the Austrian, Swiss and Italian Alps is not too far. I also love to travel to more exotic destinations on my vacation, with the north being particularly appealing to me.
