About the artwork

In the first light of day, when the world is still breathing as if in a dream, the panorama from the Grünten unfolds like a painting of light and silence. The September sky, cool and clear, bears the colours of an awakening soul - a flowing transition from deep night blue to soft pink, as if the morning itself had touched the horizon with its brush.
The Tannheim mountains, distant and yet tangibly close, are silhouetted against the light. Their shapes seem like shadows of ancient myths, silent and mysterious - no sound, no wind, just the gentle glow of time. Each peak seems to rest within itself, as if listening to a secret that only the day that is just beginning knows.
Delicate clouds, barely more than a breath, drift across the firmament, shimmering in the emerging light like thoughts that have not yet decided to become dreams or memories. They are reflected in the expanse of the view, as if the sky itself wanted to be part of this moment - not above us, but with us.
The camera, simple and still, captured what can hardly be captured in words: a pause in the world, a peaceful moment between night and day, between summer and autumn, between being and becoming. The photograph is more than a picture - it is a breath of the landscape, captured with open eyes and a heart that can see.
So you stand there, alone and at the same time connected to everything - and realise that such moments are not an escape from time, but its most precious gifts. A panorama of light, of transition, of wonder. A silent song of colours. A poem without words.
