Because of its uniqueness, the laurel forest of Madeira was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Madeira was originally entirely covered by laurel forest, but was then cleared. The Fanal, as it is also called, is the last remnant. The fog that gets stuck on the north coast of Madeira transforms the Fanal into a mystical landscape.
"If you really love nature, you will find beauty everywhere." - Vincent Van Gogh This quote from Vincent Van Gogh is very true for me, as I am a nature person and have been creatively dealing with nature as a landscape gardener for many years. When I was on vacation, I was always traveling, whether near or far, but I always had my camera with me. This was probably the basis for my photography, which became a passion. When I'm on the move, I always have an eye open for great subjects. With impressionist photography, I found a new field of activity alongside nature and architecture.
