gato-gato-gato's photostream

Photography is a precious hobby to me. I like to do all sorts of architecture- and nature-photography or whatever comes to my mind. I do a lot of postprocessing on my pictures and I often prefer black and white shots to color.
You can buy a licence for some of my pics on Getty Images if you want to use my pictures in a commercial context, i.e. advertisements or on your company's website.
Feel free to contact me if you want to use other pictures in a commercial context.
You can use all of my shots under the Creative Commons licence strictly for non-commercial use, i.e. on your personal blog.
Please notice that you must mention me as the creator of the photo and you cannot modify my pictures.
I'd like to hear from you if you use my photos, be it in your blog or otherwise - just let me know what you plan to do with my shots.
Please do not add group images and sparkling "awards" in my comments, I really don't like them and I will delete them. Also please do not invite me or my photos to any groups.
Other comments and constructive criticism are very welcome!
You can follow me on twitter (German)

85mm.ch says:
"We met somehow electronically and when I looked at his photos I immediately saw that they are of really good quality. My eyes moved to the right top corner of the window where the camera details are provided and there where two sign written: "M9"
I have to confess that I wanted not only to meet this photographer, but also touch this piece of technology. We met in Zurich twice and he attended one of my workshop.
The M9 did not convince me, but Tobi did. We will meet & shoot again in Zurich after work and go for a drink..."27th May, 2011

"Gato-Boy! Ein klasse Fotograf, der den Blick für gewisse Ungewöhnlichkeiten und Gewöhnlichkeiten hat und diese wunderbar einfängt und diese dann in seinen Fotos klasse komponiert.
Alles in allem ein Fotograf mit Talent!
Weitermachen!"21st June, 2008

"Gato-gato-gato schafft es gekonnt das menschliche Auge mit atemberaubenden Fotos zu verwöhnen. Seine Landschaftsbilder haben satte und kräftige Farben, die sofort Aufmerksamkeit erregen.
Die Detail- und Makroaufnahmen runden Gatos Fotostream wunderbar ab."11th April, 2008

"Die Fotos von gato-gato-gato sind überwältigend. Er beweißt seine Kreativität indem er sich gekonnt in verschiedene Bereiche der Fotografie vorwagt und es jedes Mal schafft, mit ausgeklügelten Ideen und einem Auge fürs Detail, Bilder zu produzieren, die einen fesseln. Speziell seine minimalistischen Fotos sind Meisterstücke die einen in den Bann ziehen. Kommt gato-gato-gato von einem Foto-Trip nach Hause, kann ich es kaum erwarten, seine Bilder auf flickr zu sehen."

"Gato's Flickrstream enthält für den Betrachter erstaunlich viele unterschiedliche Motive und Örtlichkeiten zu entdecken bereit. Der Fotograf arbeitet sehr gerne auf experimenteller Basis und weisst hier und da auch minimalistische Ansätze auf, welche er zugänglich gestaltet dem Betrachter zu Genusse führt. Die Gallery durchzublättern lasst den Betrachter eindeutig nachvollziehen, das Gato Schärfe und Licht niemals aus den Augen verliert und gekonnt einsetzt. Ebenfalls wird dem Betrachter auffallen, das die Werke des Fotografen von Kontrasten durchdrungen und farblich stimmig dargestellt werden. Eben diese Farbe wagt Gato auch wegzulassen und begibt sich gerne in den Bereich der Schwarz-Weissfotografie, bei welcher er ein geschultes Auge für Form und Linie unter Beweis stellt. Mein persönlicher Favorit ist das Werk "Forest", welches für mich ein einwandfreies Naturmotiv darstellt."
