Panoramas de France Beside Paris and Loire Valley I have started projects on Ile de France and South of France. I doubt they will ever be finished: the films, Ektachromes for colour and Kodak Plus X pan for black and white, seized to exist a few years ago. So I made a selection and self-published them in edition of 15 copies with the title "Panoramas de France"). |

Burma-Myanmar
|
|||
Until recently Burma was one of the most isolated countries on earth. When I started to discover this exciting back in 1985 the foreigners were given only one-week-visa. So I made two one-week-jumps from Bangkok to Rangoon. From 2002 onwards I resumed my Burma project and visited the country twice a year. Though I specialized in panoramic photography since 1976 I also was concerned with ordinary formats as this book shows. The texts were contributed by John Keay, Jana Marková and myself. (Available in German language only!) |

Tibet - Looking back
|
|||
My last journey to Tibet was in 1993. There was hardly a difference to my first three trips between 1985 and 1987. It was still a difficult journey to reach Tholing and Tsaparang in the former kingdom Guge at the extreme west of Tibet. Nowadays the southern road along the Tsangpo Vally is paved, the telephone lines, we were following for hundreds of kilometers, disappeared. The book is a memory of Tibet as it looked like before the great changes came. Many photographs were not published inm my previous books.I also took from my archive a number of b/w photographs. |

Siachen Expedition 1978
|
|||
In the summer of 1978, Wolfgang Kohl, Volker Stallbohm and I undertook an expedition to the Siachen Glacier in East Karakoram. At 78 km, it was considered the longest in the non-polar world. It was the third visit from the West, after Fanny and Hunter Workman (1911 and 1912) and the Italian geologist Giotto Daineli (1930). The expedition produced a 45-minute film for German television (Durch die Eiswildnis des Ost-Karakorum). The ceasefire line between India and Pakistan left it unclear until 1984 which of the two states owned the glacier. In the summer of 1984, India started a war with Pakistan to clarify who owned the ice wilderness. India still maintains several thousand troops in the Siachen area. Since our expedition played a role in this terrible story, I decided to write down our expedition story and have it self-published.Edition: 50 copies. |
