Alpine photos
The following images were mostly taken (unless noted otherwise) with an Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II camera, equipped with the 12-40mm f2.8 lens; often, a Hoya polarizer filter was used too. Several of the images were taken as multiple shots, and then stitched together with the Hugin software. For further brief adjustments, Gimp was used.
