A Holiday in the Saas Valley

I spent my two-week summer holiday in the village I was always allowed to visit as a little boy – Saas-Grund. The mighty four-thousand-metre peaks all around have always impressed me, and returning to this place as a nature photographer was especially rewarding. Besides a few butterflies I was able to photograph on a quiet morning, I also got to experience some very special moments at Kreuzboden, where common swifts shot into the water to drink at breathtaking speed.
