Im Licht der Vulkane
the quiet beauty, the light, and the soul of Tenerife
Sometimes the most beautiful journeys don’t take you to new places—
they teach you to see familiar places with new eyes.
I had the pleasure of visiting the exhibition “In the Light of the Volcanoes,” a beautiful photo exhibition
by D.W. Schmalow.
His work captures the quiet beauty, the light, and the soul of Tenerife in truly unique way.
If you have the chance, you shouldn’t miss it.
It’s a wonderful reminder of how extraordinary nature can be when seen through the eyes of an artist.

Workshop&Coaching
The best time to see and photograph the Milky Way in the area Teide is between June and October. The nights are crystal clear and the galactic centre of the Milky Way is high in the sky and shines particularly brightly.
The Milky Way is also visible on Tenerife during the rest of the year. Although the centre of the galaxy is not as bright in the evenings in summer, the starry skies at higher altitudes offer fantastic conditions for observing the fainter winter arm.
The nights around the new moon are particularly suitable.
The brightest part of the centre is already visible from late twilight onwards.
At midnight, the galactic centre stands above the southern horizon and is clearly visible as a silvery, misty band.
Accompaniment on request is very welcome!

Galaxy Photography
The period between June and October is the best time to view and photograph the Milky Way around Mount Teide. The nights are crystal-clear and the galactic centre of the Milky Way is high in the sky and shines particularly brightly. The Milky Way is also visible in Tenerife during the rest of the year. Although the centre of the galaxy is not as bright as it is in summer, the starry skies at higher altitudes offer fantastic conditions for observing the fainter winter arm.
The nights around the new moon are ideal.

Photography
begins with your own visual idea.
The camera’s viewfinder is your creative field and provides the framework for effective composition with deliberate framing.
The choice of lens, aperture, shutter speed and ISO setting have a significant impact on your photograph.
The workshop will explain the interplay between your choice of framing, perspective, lighting and technical settings, and your visual idea.
All camera systems that enable you to adjust the exposure parameters are welcome, including analogue cameras. You should be as familiar as possible with your camera. Of course, I’m willing offer advice.
At the end of the day

The deliberately artistic, fine coloring, give the photographs a restrained, sensitive impression aesthetics and thus its own characteristic.

*****
Fine Art Photagraphy
t is my artistic freedom to live and experience fine art photography, when I am touched by my senses during photography.
Based on the tangible experience, it is my concern to work out the photographs very sensitive in high quality and thus subtle with its own characteristic.
I have chosen a reduced color or black & white elaboration to connect the world of nature with my photography.This is supported by selected fine art papers and high quality presentation materials.
The photographs are available in selected formats in low editions.
