Two technicians (and me) standing on a 120 meter high (393 ft) wind turbine in the Rhön mountain area, some 140 kms (87 mls) northeast of Frankfurt, May 15.

Olympic Training at Night

Marco Koch (bottom), the men’s 200-meter breaststroke world champion in 2015, during a nighttime training session at Darmstadt’s Nordbad, some 45 kms (28 mls) south of Frankfurt, July 14, just a few days before flying to Rio to take part in the Olympics. The scene is lit by floodlight and two remotely triggered studio flashlights positioned diagonally left and right.
