Photos that convey a great passion and a deep need to make their own unique and touching moments
Tobias Ryser is considered one of the best young Swiss mountain photographers. Always passionate about the alpine environment, he worked for a long time as an environmental guide at the naturalistic oasis Naturzentum Thurauen near Zurich, developing specific expertise in the photographic and naturalistic fields. Many of his mountain images, in addition to representing the beauty of the Alpine landscape, are the clear expression of the author’s excellent alpine skills, able to move with ease on all terrains and at all altitudes.
“With my images I would like to document the beauty of our Swiss natural landscapes and thank and honor the creator for these masterpieces.
As a mountaineer I love being in my home mountains, braving the wind and bad weather and experiencing breathtaking light atmospheres. That’s why I love spending the night under the stars in the middle of the wild mountains. As a photographer, I can interpret a scene in my own way and give the image a personal and individual touch. Sometimes classic, sometimes playful and surprising. There are no limits to creativity! As a landscape architect and former ranger of a Swiss floodplain area, I have a great deal of knowledge in the environmental and landscape sectors, which I transfer to my workshops and photography courses. I attach great importance to an intense and unforgettable photographic adventure with a great experience value”.
