street and travel photography
Wir fahren fast jedes Jahr nach Holland an die Küste. Entweder im November oder rund um die Karnevalszeit. Meist bläst uns der kalte Wind ins Gesicht, dass die Ohren schmerzen. Dieses Mal war das Wetter ganz anders. Der erste Tag war fast windstill, feucht und schwer hing ein fahler Nebel über dem Meer. Am zweiten […]
I hadn’t been in the mood to go out. Weather was shitty and there was that pain in the back. But then I thought: there is that opportunity once in a year. To grab emotions of a vast variety at one spot, so compressed, that your camera is too slow to grab them all. Rage, […]
It’s been a long time, since I’ve been in the zoo. I went there lately when I had a day rest. The feeling in advance of the visit was quite similar to the feeling I get when I see a circus tent from a distance: a shady melancholy arises, as I am thinking about […]
It’s the Reds and Blues which sometimes (not very often) let me work the raw-files into color-pictures. Strong reds and blues. Preferably with a touch of Black. If I can find them in one frame: wonderful! These pictures were taken with the Ricoh GR and post-produced with the RNI-preset ‚Technicolor‘ . Deutsche Übersetzung: siehe unten. […]
Actually, I am not very interested in reviewing cameras. That doesn’t mean, I don’t like to read reviews – quite the opposite. They are an ever sparkling source for an illness a lot of amateur photographers suffer from: the gear acquisition syndrome. But truth to be told: new cameras or lenses just very rarely improve […]
You enter a surreal world when the alarm clock rings at 5 a.m. When you’re lucky, your sleep wasn’t interrupted during a heavy dream. You appreciate the delights of a strict routine, when your body just follows a ritual of movements, because your mind is not ready yet. Don’t hurry, don’t think, just follow that […]
Our perception of dance is largely influenced by the idea of perfection. Perfect bodies execute difficult movements in a hopefully perfect manner. Isn’t that what dancers are used to train for most of their lives? To stay in shape, give us an idea, what could be achieved if we would train as hard as dancers […]
Imagine a place, where you leave the hotel room in the morning and are being blinded by the light. It’s hard to imagine these days, at least in Cologne, Germany, but that’s exactly why I want to remember it. Syracuse in Sicily, in summertime 2016. Of course we haven’t seen all places in beautiful Sicily, […]
Of course Cologne isn’t depressive, Cologne is exactly what it’s vsitors might see in it. But in January there is no laughter, not even in Cologne. There are weather conditions. And after some light-tight days the city is blurry – or at least my mood is. There is a long tradition of Cologne-Bashing, especially from […]
I wasn’t searching too long for a photograph which could mirror my feelings just a few hours before the new year will dawn. In many ways (and the least of them are of personal nature) 2016 hasn’t been a good year, at least in Europe. Needless to recall all the acts of terrors and social […]
