Winter is coming ❄️☃️🌨️

Today the supermoon is 30 000 km closer to Earth than the annual average. #NikonZ8 #moon #blackandwhite

Busy days in the forest 🐿️ 📷 Nikon Z8 + 600mm PF f/6.3 #Wildlife #SquirrelWatch #Forest #Nikon #autumn

So proud of my PhD supervisor and #BestBossEver @birgitsattler.bsky.social Also happy to see that the article on the @austrianpolar.bsky.social homepage features some of my photos — check it out! 📸❄️

Alpine autumn color show #nature #photography

Aerial Alpine autumn vibes #paragliding #nature

🌌 Milky Way over Jamtalferner glowing in the night. Pure alpine magic. ✨⛰️ #Astrophotography #Alps #MilkyWay

Fitz Roy (3406 m), Patagonia — this is why I carry a camera everywhere. Clouds forming, breaking, and racing past the peaks, the drama shifting every minute. This is why I shoot timelapse. 🎥 #Timelapse #Patagonia #FitzRoy #AdventurePhotography #LandscapePhotography

✨ Huge congratulations to @birgitsattler.bsky.social on her nomination as Austrian of the Year in the Climate category! 🌍❄️ This recognition is so well deserved — her tireless glacier and climate work inspires the scientific community and beyond. 👉 Vote here: www.diepresse.com/events/austr...

Tonight’s lunar eclipse, partly hidden by alpine peaks and drifting clouds. Still lucky enough to capture fragments of the Moon’s journey. 🌒🌕🌘

What happens when UV light hits spoiled cream cheese? A hidden microbial world starts to glow 🔬🧀✨ #SciArt #Fluorescence #Photography

❄️ Glaciers. 🌲 Forests. 🌊 Lakes. ⛰️ Summits. This 30s trailer shows how I turn research into powerful visuals. Produced for LTSER Tyrolean Alps (University of Innsbruck). 👉 Full film: www.youtube.com/watch?v=voUw... Which landscape speaks to you most? 👀 #ScienceCommunication #ClimateChange #Alps

❄️ Visited #Hintereisferner for a video project — a #glacier in Tirol’s Naturpark Ötztal ranging from 2,500–3,750 m. It holds one of the world’s longest records of glacier mass balance, a key to understanding climate change in the Alps. 📸 Film coming soon.

Some climbs are for science, all climbs are for perspective. #Mountaineering #Adventure #SummitViews #MountainLife

Early forest walk this morning… came back with slow-mo squirrel footage 🐿️🎥 #Nikonz8 #600mm

Winding down the day with a peaceful flight and a sky painted in blue 💙

Rainy weekend? 🌧️ Grab a UV light and explore! These isopods under a lichen patch glow blue, red is likely chlorophyll‑a fluorescence. This photo is a stack of 400 RAW images! ✨🪲💡 #UVfluorescence #MacroPhotography #Isopod #Biodiversity #Laowa #HeliconFocus

Pollinators are in global decline—yet we depend on their ecosystem services, from healthy ecosystems to food security. Visualizing them shows what’s disappearing—and why we must act to protect them. 🌸 Protect pollinator habitats, protect our future. European Environment Agency: tinyurl.com/yc4pp3ps

Check out this time-lapse video of waves eroding an ice front from an experiment conducted in our cryogenic wave tank at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The tank is housed in a walk-in freezer, and the waves are precisely controlled. This video captures about an hour of wave erosion.

Everyone needs a way to clear their mind. This is mine. 🪂 Over Innsbruck, above the noise. #Paragliding #Innsbruck #Views

Ich habe zufällig mal in #3sat reingeschaut und sofort @weisleitner.bsky.social bei der Beprobung von #Mikroplastik in #Kanada und #Grönland gesehen 😲 Sehr sehr spannend ✌️ 📺 lnkd.in/gDJGNeUw 🐳🛥️🐻‍❄️

I spotted a Eurasian nuthatch on my morning walk. 🌲🪶 #birding #photography #Nikon600mm #NikonZ8

My interview with @nature.com “A new direction in our work is to understand the microbial inhabitants of the atmosphere. Is it just a dispersal mechanism for dormant cells, or does it harbour active microbes that grow and divide?” Thanks James Crow & @jacopaso.bsky.social ❄️ tinyurl.com/42u5tz5c

Today we escaped the heat by hiking 1300m uphill in the Tyrolean Alps. This view never gets old 😍 #Kalkkögel #LandscapePhotography

Keeping an eye on details with 300 stacked images. #MacroPhotography #ExtremeMacro #FocusStacking

From on the glacier to inside the glacier — another great day of science communication with @austrianpolar.bsky.social We talked about glacier ecology, climate change, and why these icy environments are so important. Visual storytelling makes a difference. @polareducators.bsky.social

⚽ After the #ChampionsLeagueFinal in Munich (#PSG 5–0 #Inter), a thought experiment: A 420 m cube on the Allianz Arena pitch ≈ 3 million m³ — the glacier/rock debris that buried Blatten (CH). Understand scale. Demand action. #SciComm #ClimateCrisis #GlacierCollapse

I had the privilege to join Dale’s Antarctic expeditions three times — unforgettable experiences with an extraordinary explorer. Congratulations, Dale, on this well-deserved recognition!

I took this image in Antarctica — a place of harsh beauty, sometimes colorful, and always deeper than expected. Share if you like it. #Photography #Antarctica #Fieldwork #PolarScience #GlacierLife #BlueIce #SciencePhotography #VisualScience #IceStories #Earth #Expedition

Just as I framed the shot, the chaffinch took off—wings wide, mid-air magic. Caught it in flight on Madeira with the new 600mm f/6.3. Loving this lens! #Madeira #Chaffinch #NikonZ8 #600mm #BirdInFlight #WildlifePhotography #NatureLovers #Photography

Just released: Christoph Pepe Auer’s “Cloud” – shot by Fancy Treefilms & me! We used probe lenses, drones & handhelds in an old cinema. It was a super fun and creative shoot! Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=SHWZ... #musicvideo #jazz

Took my new #Nikon 600mm f/6.3 PF lens out for a walk in Naturpark Karwendel — originally got it for wildlife photography, but I’m starting to see landscapes differently through it. Amazing how a new piece of gear can completely shift how I look at the world. #Photography #Nature #Outdoors
