31st of December. Top-Of and Best-Of lists all over the social webs – you’ve probably seen enough of these. Still, this is the time to look back at the past year and so I thought I’d tell the story of my year with the help of a few shots from behind the scenes.

OK, I understand. This may sound like a poor excuse for someone who is struggling to compile a list of good shots from the past year. And yes indeed, my list of great-landscape-in-unbelievable-light-shots of 2013 is quite short. But then again my year 2013 was about so much more: I walked further and climbed higher than ever before. I went to see new countries and went back to places I had been to before. I spent weeks away from home with my love and with old and new friends. And the best thing about it: I enjoyed every single minute!

2013 was a great year. And to be honest – my best photographs (even twelve of them) could not summarize better what it was about, than these shots below. Thanks to everyone involved in making my 2013 the year it was! You guys rock!

…And of course HAPPY NEW YEAR to everybody!!
