Thomas Senf Alpine Photography
Aerialists
From Dave’s BASE jump to Gabor’s performance of eleven summersaults in a row; the Lauterbrunner valley offers it all and is located right at my doorstep.
Wingsuit, B.A.S.E.
With the help of a wing suit people like Ueli Gegenschatz come quite close to flying, one of the oldest dreams of mankind.
Heli crash
Thin air bears a variety of dangers, as we painfully had to experience in 5000 meters of altitude. However, the wreck still proved to be useful, offering us a comfortable bivvy.
Mount Elbrus, Russia
Valery Rozov before and during the highest BASE jump in Europe. A dream becomes true.
The Matterhorn, Valais
Probably the fastest way from the Matterhorn to Zermatt. As a photographer, not equipped with a parachute, I arrived in Zermatt quite a long time after Valery had already finished dessert in a local restaurant.
Sponsoring
Without the strong commitment of companies such as Red Bull, a lot of projects would simply not be possible.
Faith
Stephan Siegrist twice. For pictures like these a good relationship between athlete and photographer is crucial.
Highline at the Schilthorn
Staying constantly focused represents one of the biggest challenges when it comes to highlining. At the same time the pleasure of achievement reaps the biggest reward.
Schynige Platte, Bernese Oberland
Anyone who thinks that the Alps lack any new challenges just needs some inspiration in creativity.
