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 discovering 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.

There are not only grand landscapes, but also lush forests

There are a lot of must-sees (but you have to hike to get there)

Sometimes the roads are okay

Scotland’s second-highest waterfall: Steall Falls. These photos are a great example of how you don’t necessarily see how they were taken.

It was a challenging hike with lots of steps, scrambling over small waterfalls, and, above all, a lot of rain. It rained so hard that I hardly dared to use my camera (I would have loved to take a few photos of our way to the waterfall).

Nevertheless, the trail through the autumnal forest to Steall Falls was truly beautiful with some nice viewpoints. When we arrived in the valley, the sun even peeked out for a little while, and we had a few lovely minutes before the rain started again. We ended up getting soaked to the bone on the way back. My camera backpack was wet on the inside despite the rain cover.

I guess that’s just part of hiking in Scotland 🤷

A few days on the Isle of Skye, Scotland: Quiraing, the Trotternish coast, Neist Point, Talisker Bay and way too much mud.

Talisker lies quite far to the west of the Isle of Skye. It’s famous for a wh**ky distillery, which doesn’t interest us in the slightest. After navigating a few rough single-track roads and a fairly long walk, you come to Talisker Bay beach – that’s where we wanted to go!

It’s well worth the effort and the 20 to 25 minutes (one way), as the route is truly lovely, with sheep and cows grazing on either side, and the beach itself is beautifully situated. The beach is reminiscent of Icelandic beaches, with their characteristic black sand. There’s even a waterfall in the distance to round off the view.

The road leading up to it is pretty much standard for the Isle of Skye, with countless deep potholes, but we ended up with a flat tyre afterwards, so… I suppose you just have to take that risk here 😅

An Torr was Plan B, we'd actually planned something else. The weather was so changeable that day that we spontaneously decided we’d rather do the shorter walk through this enchanting forest.

We’d hardly done any research, though, so we had no expectations, and perhaps that’s precisely why we were so amazed 🥰

This forest had such a diverse range of flora and such lush greenery. Beautiful and varied paths led us through the forest. In the end, it didn't even rain. Quite unexpectedly, this turned out to be one of the highlights of our time in Glen Coe.

When you drive into the Scottish Highlands, one thing strikes you straight away: autumn is in its prime. Among other things, the ferns, which are turning a deep red, lend the towering mountains of Glen Coe their stunning colours. As big fans of autumn, this was a lovely surprise, as we’d expected to see a bit less autumnal colour, particularly in areas with little woodland.

The A82 takes you through Glen Coe, where one epic landscape follows another. It’s certainly busy here, but that doesn’t make it any less beautiful. What a lovely road to drive along. We’re really glad we spent a few days here, even though the weather was really bad at times. Unfortunately, that meant we couldn’t go on the hike into the Lost Valley. It looked absolutely stunning there. Next time 🥰

If you’re visiting Scotland, you simply have to see Edinburgh, don’t you?

We did the usual tourist bit and visited a few sights in a day. And yes, I have to say that Edinburgh really is exceptionally beautiful. There are so many old buildings and narrow alleyways. It’s got a special vibe.

On the other hand, we had brilliant weather and it was a Sunday, so there were truly unprecedented crowds of tourists, it was incredible 😅 Of course, I can’t really complain, as we were tourists ourselves, but it’s still worth bearing in mind.

We’re not really city people, and in the end we were glad we’d decided to stay for just one day so we could finally head off to the Highlands 😍

If you've ever wondered what's above Skógafoss: lots of waterfalls just like this one. There's an epic hiking trail called Fimmvörðuháls, which takes you past the countless waterfalls.

September is the month when I just look forward to the coming fall. The first leaves are falling, the deciduous trees are slowly changing color and of course it gets moodier 🍂
It's such a wonderful time of year that I can hardly wait 😍

If you like moody landscapes, take a look at my shop where you can find prints and downloads of my favorite photos (Link in Bio) 🥰
