The Yukon Territory is a Canadian region located in the far north of the country, known for its rugged wilderness, natural beauty, and unique culture. The Indian Summer is a term used to describe the period of warm and sunny weather that occurs in the fall, usually in September and October.
During the Indian Summer, the Yukon Territory offers a wide range of outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, fishing, and wildlife watching, as the leaves are changing colors, creating a beautiful landscape.
Some popular things to see and do in the Yukon during Indian Summer include:
Hiking in one of the many national parks such as Kluane National Park, home of Mount Logan, Canada’s highest peak, and Tombstone Territorial Park, known for its rugged mountains and alpine meadows.
Fishing for salmon in the many rivers and streams that flow through the region.
Wildlife watching, such as spotting grizzly bears, caribou, and moose in their natural habitat.

Le territoire du Yukon est une région canadienne située à l’extrême nord du pays, connue pour sa nature sauvage, sa beauté naturelle et sa culture unique. L’été indien est un terme utilisé pour décrire la période de temps chaud et ensoleillé qui se produit à l’automne, généralement en septembre et octobre.
Pendant l’été indien, le territoire du Yukon offre un large éventail d’activités de plein air telles que la randonnée, le camping, la pêche et l’observation de la faune, car les feuilles changent de couleur, créant un paysage magnifique.
Voici quelques activités populaires à voir et à faire au Yukon pendant l’été indien :
Faire de la randonnée dans l’un des nombreux parcs nationaux, comme le parc national de Kluane, où se trouve le mont Logan, le plus haut sommet du Canada, et le parc territorial de Tombstone, connu pour ses montagnes accidentées et ses prairies alpines. La pêche au saumon dans les nombreuses rivières et ruisseaux qui traversent la région. L’observation de la faune, notamment des grizzlis, des caribous et des orignaux dans leur habitat naturel. Visiter Whitehorse, la capitale du Yukon, connue pour son histoire, sa culture et ses activités de plein air. Visite de Dawson City, une ville située au cœur de la ruée vers l’or du Klondike, connue pour son histoire, sa culture et ses activités de plein air. Visiter les piscines chaudes de Takhini, des sources chaudes naturelles situées juste à l’extérieur de Whitehorse, qui offrent un bain relaxant après une journée d’activités de plein air. Il est également important de noter que l’été indien dans le territoire du Yukon peut être de courte durée et que le temps peut changer rapidement. Il est donc important de se préparer à différentes conditions météorologiques et de vérifier les prévisions avant de partir.
Yellow, every where you are looking, you will see a yellow taxi.
You know you are in New York City.
It is nearly impossible to take a picture without capturing a taxi.
No difference during the day or at night.
Imfrared pictures were taken with a Nikon D700 which was converted by Optic Makario exchanging the internal IR-pass filter. This standard filter is blocking the infrared rays above 700 nm, it is mounted directly in front of the sensor. Allowing to pass visible light from 400 nm to 700 nm. This IR-pass filter is removed and replaced by a IR-pass filter blocking all wavelengths below 720 nm. After this change the sensor captures only IR wavelengths from 720 nm to 1100 nm which are invisible to the human eye.
Pictures were taken in New York, Central Park with a Nikkor 24 mm. Aperture was 8 because above you can get IR-hot-spots. The picture was set-up from three exposures -1/0/+1 f-stop which were combined to a HDR. Finaly the blue and red chanels were switched.
With the same Camera set-up but converted into black and white.
Times Square is the theatre district in Manhattan, there are about 40 theatres.
At the crossing Broadway and 7th Avenue. It stretches from 42nd Street to West 47th Street.
It was named after the New York Times which is located there.
In 1976 the area around Times Square was known as the most dangerous place in New York. But times changed and today it is as safe as whole Manhattan. Where Broadway and Times Square meet the road was changed to a pedestrian area. It is a must to equip new buildings with illuminated advertisings. Especially for this advertisings a new unit was created – the LUTS (Lighting Unit for Times Square).
If it rains in New York you will get wet.
If it rains in NYC it rains hard in summertime. You won’t get a taxi, there are thousands but all are occupied when it rains.
You could be prepared carrying an umbrella but if you are an optimist you left it at home. So you will buy one for 5$, a small, ugly weak toy-like umbrella and add it later to the box with the other dozens you bought in the past when you got cached by a thunder storm.
But for all this you get rewarded by the rainy scene, when everything is wet and lights are reflected in the streets.
New York city is most beautiful during a rainy night.
Ein Besuch der Konzentrationslager Auschwitz und Birkenau in Südpolen ruft einem die Dimension der faschistischen Verbrechen verdeutlicht ins Gedächtnis. Obwohl die Darstellung vor Ort sehr sachlich und neutral gezeigt wird ist doch die enorme Größe der Gelände sehr beeindruckend. Die Darstellung in Film und Literatur vermag die Größenordnung nicht so deutlich machen wie ein Besuch vor Ort.
Ich habe die Aufnahmen in schwarz-weiß gehalten da sie der Situation so besser entsprechen. Auch habe ich nicht alles fotografiert und auch nicht alle Fotografien hier ins Netz gestellt. Ein gewisser Respekt und Andenken muss die Auswahl einschränken. Der Besuch dieser Gedenkstätten ist unbedingt jedem zu empfehlen um Geschichte zu verstehen und die Zukunft in die richtige Richtung zu lenken.
A visit in the concentration camp Auschwitz and Birkenau in the south of Poland gives you a dramatic impression about the crimes of the Nazis.
The exhibition is made in a very neutral way but the huge area is very impressive. What you may be have seen in movies and read in literature is far not as impressive as what you will see at the location.
I developed the captures in black and white because I think it is more representative for the content. As well I did not photograph everything possible and I did not publish all photographs. A certain respect and remembrance is limiting the choice of photos. I can highly recommend a visit of Auschwitz, it will help to get much closer to history and influence the future.
In Nepal findet man Moderne und Tradition Seite an Seite. Traditionelles Leben vermischt sich mit modernen Elementen. Das Straßenbild ist geprägt von einer Vielfalt. Diese wird sowohl von Armut und Reichtum geprägt wie auch vom Glauben und geschichtlicher Herkunft. Europäische und amerikanische Lebensweisen fließen in das doch noch sehr deutlich traditionell geprägte Leben der Bevölkerung.
In Nepal you will find the influence of the modern world and the tradition side by side. Traditional and modern life is creating a mixed lifestyle. The streets show a multi-cultural view. The street view is stamped by poverty and wealth and as well from religion and history.
European and American lifestyle influencing clearly the obvious traditional life of the population.
