The fastest animal in the world is not this falcon, is not the cheetah but the slightly smaller peregrine falcon, which can attack prey from the air at around 360km/h. These wonderful kings of the air are one of the most impressive creatures in the animal world. I was lucky enough to work with a good friend and expert in wildlife issues, so that it was possible for us to capture this beautiful and majestic bird on this amazing nature area. In the background a small river flows down the valley and that gives this beautiful effect. I hope I have given you a little joy with this portrait of the falcon. For me, these were some of the most beautiful moments since I discovered animal photography.

Today Tiphona got her new wig. Only her final wig is missing. But it's the same color. *-*
I chance her to Lightning *_*
The lightning was flashing non-stop in the deep of that stormy cloud. The sky was clear above my mountain and the wind was blowing towards the storm, so I knew that I was safe.
A simple capture of a lightning strike in Montana. My brother and I travelled thousands of miles through tornado alley with Antony & Peter Spencer and our guide in search of bad weather.

Never underestimate lightning like this tree did. It grew taller than the rest, towering like a kingly giant. Then one night boom! A single bolt whacked off the top third and spiraled down the trunk into the ground. Where, I'm certain it crisped the root system. Now what remains is a reminder to all as the limbs reach heavenly as if hoping for a return to glory.
Since years I am waiting for a nice lightning storm around my apartment. Tonight was the night, I finally got my lightning picture from my kitchen window. Dortmund, Germany 20.08.2009
I was up all night taking pictures of the first good thunderstorm of the season, and managed to capture this picture. This is my first time taking lightning pics since I got my Nikon D50, and I am very pleased with the results.
