Lightseeker Photographs

Landscape photographer based in Frankfurt/Germany. My name is Lukas, I am 29 years old and I live in Frankfurt.

I have a Master's degree in Northern Studies and that is kind of where a lot of my photos come from. I began taking photos randomly back in 2012 when I moved to study. It was a lot of trial and error at the beginning but I had fun and kept on doing it. During my studies I had quite a few possibilities to take landscape photographs in Scandinavia, mostly in Sweden. That is where I grew to love disc

overing the beauties of nature and to appreciate what nature gives us. At that time I could probably only take some great photos because of the luck to be there in the right moment. But since I had a lot of fun learning new things and trying different motives and compositions for my photos, they kept getting better and better. However I consider it harder to get a decent photo in Germany than in Scandinavia but of course I won't stop trying to get the perfect photograph. Light is essential for every single photograph and I love to capture it clearly on my camera sensor. Be it impressive atmospheres, great sunrises and sunsets or breathtaking northern lights – that’s what I seek and that’s what Lightseeker Photographs stands for.

Ich heiße Lukas, bin 29 und lebe in Frankfurt. Ich habe einen Master in Skandinavistik und viele meiner Fotos kommen mehr oder weniger von meinem Studium. Ich habe 2012 damit begonnen, hier und da Fotos zu machen, als ich für das Studium umgezogen bin. Ich habe am Anfang viel ausprobiert und einige Fehler gemacht, aber ich hatte Spaß und habe damit weitergemacht. Während meines Studiums hatte ich ein paar Möglichkeiten, Landschaftsfotos in Skandinavien zu machen, vor allem in Schweden. Da begann ich, es lieben zu lernen, die Schönheit der Natur zu entdecken und wertzuschätzen, was die Natur einem geben kann. Zu dieser Zeit konnte ich manche Fotos wahrscheinlich nur machen, weil ich zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort war. Aber weil ich viel Spaß daran hatte, neue Dinge zu lernen und neue Motive und Kompositionen auszuprobieren, sind die Fotos immer besser geworden. Ich finde es schwieriger, in Deutschland ein schönes Landschaftsfoto zu machen, aber natürlich werde ich weiterhin versuchen, das perfekte Foto zu kriegen. Licht ist das wichtigste für jedes Foto und ich persönlich liebe es, es klar und deutlich auf den Kamerasensor zu bringen. Beeindruckende Lichtstimmungen, tolle Sonnenauf/-untergänge und atemberaubende Nordlichter – danach suche ich und dafür steht Lightseeker Photographs.

Hi! I'm Lukas, a landscape photographer from Germany. I've been taking photos for over 15 years, and what I love most is capturing atmospheric landscapes in dramatic weather. I love the rugged north, but I also take a lot of photos all over Germany, where I live.

I love being outdoors, finding compositions with the right light, editing photos, and sharing them in the end. I hope you like what I do, and if you do, feel free to follow me 🫶

And if you really REALLY like these photos, take a look at my shop for prints and downloads! I’d be infinitely grateful 🥰

My favorite time: right after it has rained in the forest 😍

My biggest fear is that one day someone notices all the dust on my sensor in one of these formats where I show the raw file. Who would have thought that one of the most noticable things when switching from Micro Four Thirds to Full Frame is that there's dust on the sensor ALL THE TIME? Where does it all come from?

Well, here are a few photos from the Alps where I find the before-and-after pretty interesting. I like how the edits turned out.

Since it was so hard to choose last time, here are 5 more places that are all exciting and simply beautiful in their own way.

1-2: Vatnajökull as seen from Fjallsárlón, Iceland
3-4: Nydalasjön, Umeå, Sweden
5-6: Háifoss, Iceland
7-8: Büsenbachtal, Northern Germany
9-10: Svartifoss, Iceland (it's not like a forest, but there are so many trees, it was so odd 😂)

Got caught in a thunderstorm, but it was absolutely worth it. Afterward, the forest is so quiet, and it smells like rain and forest floor. Just wonderful.

It was a real problem for me back then: I thought I’d never be able to take such beautiful photos again. Nowhere is as beautiful as the north.

My heart still belongs to the north, but the photos from the last 10 years have clearly shown that Germany has so much to offer as well. You just have to get out of the city, plan ahead, and bring your camera along. I think we’re actually very lucky here, because the landscapes and sights are so diverse that you can always find something exciting.

Every August, the heathland around the Lüneburg Heath glows in these beautiful shades of purple. The heath is a perfect example of how humans shape the Earth: young trees are cut down, sheep graze on tree shoots, and the soil is kept so barren that trees and grasses could hardly survive there anyway.

At first glance, that sounds wrong. At least, that’s what I thought.

But without human intervention, the heath would revert to forest within a few decades.

Instead, open landscapes are preserved, ensuring the survival of the rare heather. These areas are home not only to the heathland itself but also to many other highly specialized species, like animals, insects, and plants, that would not survive in the forest or on cultivated fields.

Although humans have shaped this landscape, it might not exist today if it weren’t for them. And of course I wouldn't have been able to take these beautiful photos. Which one do you like best? 😊

I was very lucky that day 🥰 The water was so clear that it actually looked blue. On many days, it tends to look gray and murky (at least that's what I've seen in many other photos).
I love the photos I got of this magical place, especially because of the contrast between the turquoise water and the landscape.

If you don't have to be anywhere in particular, take the most scenic route you can find. Take the long way around. Explore the countryside and all the things you won't find listed as attractions on Google Maps.
The journey is the destination. That sounds corny, but when it comes to scenery, it's really true. That's how I found my favorite photo subjects: with no destination in mind, just hitting the road and keeping my eyes open.

It's a surreal feeling to stand there. The ground is literally boiling, it's hot, and it reeks of sulfur. But it's not every day you get to see a sight like this. Especially from above, Iceland really looks like another planet.
