Mountains and photography involve walking, letting your eyes guide you, improvising, discovering, moving from place to place, and seeing familiar ones in a new light. Just one camera, one lens, a tripod and handful of black-and-white rolls your only companions. It means wandering in and out of the forest, over and around the mountains, aimlessly and timelessly, following the path of the sun, clouds drifting in and out of sight, casting light and shadow on the snow and on the rock. Each shot is full of silence and soulfulness. It is as though I am in the mountains and in the photograph at the same time. And this, for now, is all I need."
