Nicole Herr

But the Taunus is not her only source of inspiration. Nicole is always looking for special places, be it remote landscapes or urban scenes from different cities.

Unlike many fair-weather photographers, Nicole is particularly drawn to the outdoors in fog and rain. The appeal for her lies in capturing the mystical atmosphere of these situations. Without detailed planning, she is guided by spontaneous excursions due to family and work, experiencing nature in all its facets.

She especially loves the mood at sunrise, when the world is still and the light is magical. As a resident of a high altitude region, she often enjoys the spectacular interplay of the first rays of sunlight with the mist in the landscape, which she photographs with enthusiasm.

The combination of hiking and photography also allows Nicole to organize her thoughts and enjoy nature to the fullest. In the solitude of the forest, she is inspired by the sounds of her surroundings and tries to capture her feelings in her images.

Kartini Diapari-Öngider's quote "Just relax, enjoy and dream - in these magical moments time just stands still" perfectly reflects Nicole Herr's attitude and closeness to nature.

For Nicole, image processing is an important step on the way to the finished photo. By cleverly reducing colors, she enhances the mood of her shots without changing the original character of the image. Instead of colorful landscapes, she prefers mystical-looking forests and areas that could be from the realm of fairies and goblins.
