In realms of fleeting artistry and poised reverie,
Where AI delves into the realm of randomness free,
Classic photography stands as a counterweight,
To hunt the unknown, moments rare, in life's true estate.
Amidst the artificial world's calculated flurry,
Where bits and bytes dance in programmed hurry,
There lies a realm where many dare not tread,
Where lenses seek the synchronicity ahead.
For in life's vast chaos, where madness does reside,
Moments untamed, where chance and fate collide,
A phenomena unfolds, both wild and serene,
A tapestry of rawness, a glimpse of the unseen.
In the dance of mundane, where madness finds its place,
Universal disruptions weave their ethereal grace,
A tapestry woven with threads of cosmic design,
Moments of unknown matter, brilliantly align.
Capturing these whispers with delicate precision,
Classic photography embraces their intrinsic vision,
Through lenses and real moments, the world unfolds,
Revealing the splendor that destiny beholds.
In frames of silver and moments forever conserved,
The essence of existence, captured and preserved,
Through the alchemy of light, shadows, and form,
A symphony of life, in each photograph is born.
The world must heed this timeless art's call,
For in the digital age, it's destined not to fall,
To cherish the magic that classic photography imparts,
To nurture appreciation for the real life part.
For in the era of calculated randomness, we seek,
The unfiltered beauty, the genuine mystique,
Classic photography, a compass to navigate,
Through the ebbs and flows of life's intricate state.
Let the world bear witness, let its voice be heard,
To celebrate the artistry, where souls are stirred,
For in these moments captured, we truly find,
The essence of humanity, forever enshrined.

Beneath the Rosenlaui glacier in the Bernese alps one can explore thundering waterfalls, romantic grottos and bizarre cliff formations shaped by the power of water and forming a piece of natural art by itself, the Rosenlaui Glacier Gorge. After climbing down a steep hill of ancient mountain forest terrain this remarkable spot can be reached crossing the glacial river balancing on slippery rocks. If one is receptive, at golden hour the majestic vista towards the "Engelhörner" (engl.: angel horns) mountain range may illuminates with a spotlight through the forest to the glacier waterfall. With the warm light reflecting in the glacier river, giving a feel of witnessing IRL magic, exploring the synchronicity this place encapsulates with all senses in all its realness & rawness gifting us the essence of our lives.
