Click on the image to find out more of the calendar
When I came back from the Olympic games I found that it was quite a hard and intensive job to take images at the games but even harder is to choose 13 of the 9000 for a calendar. I don’t know how many times I did a new selection for this calendar but with some help from friends and also another sailing photographer Amory Ross now It’s done and I’m very happy with the outcome.
On the cover we find Nathalie Brugger, she fully deserves to be on the cover of the 2009 calendar.
For every calendar we sell we will pay 5 CHF to the youth development of Swiss Sailing, I like the idea to involve the youth in this project and with the calendars who are sold by the clubs even more money can be collected for our youth.
Like every project there are a few person who are key. Have to admit without the persistence of Daniel Wälti the chief redactor of Swiss Boat Yachting I would not have even started to seriously consider such a project. The calendar shows 13 images from all our Swiss sailors at the Olympic games, this is only possible thanks to Swiss Olympic who helped us with the authorization of IOC.
Enjoy it
