Photography buff since the first day I entered a photography darkroom. I like to feel a picture, to listen to its visual tune. I like to feel the light when I’m looking at a picture.

No Fear to Fail!

That neg has been staying in my head for more than three years. Didn‘t dare to print it.

Frühlingslichtgefühl

I printed this a week ago. I wanted to see some spring light. With autumn around the corner, my kind of light will get scarcer and scarcer in the next couple of months.

Agaves

Strong light on an agave - I have to respond to it. It’s one of my favorite objects to photograph, on a par with structures of sand and with palm trees.

Color

Sometimes I like to play with color. Last year in Austin, Texas, the colors were so bright and stimulating that I loaded some Fuji Provia 100F and tried to get some shots.

Buena Vista You know this view from Christian’s earlier pinhole post. It’s the view from one of the windows of the photo lab - taken 2018, when we still resided in the large rooms which currently get renovated.

Travel with Concept

When I travel - Do the Pictures Qualify as my real Photography? In times of the Corona virus and traveling bans, this may be an odd theme.

Silence in Pictures

What I really like is when a picture makes you freeze and feel the silence. When I’m looking at such a picture I tend to freeze myself, silently gazing at the picture, being sucked in by its atmosphere.

Surface and Light

What Makes a Picture? This recent print tells a lot about what drives my photography. More than anything else, I strive to transform my feelings into a picture.
