Making van Gogh


I‘ve been visiting the Städel Museum in Frankfurt last week. Currently there‘s a great exhibition about Vincent van Gogh called Making Van Gogh. So it‘s not just the images but also the stories behind the images that make this exhibition so interesting. And I thought that this is an excellent topi...

Palmenhaus


This image is one of my favorites of all time. It's very precious for me, it's like something to put in a treasure trove and take it out only for very special occasions. But since I decided not to be so shy and cautious about things living in the internet anymore, and since it's the beginning of a n...

Wimbledon


This is actually a funny picture. Everytime I look at it I start smiling. Mainly this is because of the title Wimbledon. If you have a closer look at the image you might already guess that this photo wasn't taken at the All England Club in Wimbledon. Instead the image was taken at the Chateau d...

Red Tent and Masonry


I picked this older image to start this blog. For a long time now I wanted to populate a place that is my very own, that has consistent rules and a design that I actually chose instead of being forced into square boxes between ads. A place that feels less crowded and more focused. A place about art...

Level


WYSIWYG. What you see is what you get. WYGIWYS. What you get is what you see. Seeing is believing. Just looking out of the window might sometimes get you into the most astonishing rabbit holes.

Rocket


Winter is over now and spring is already approaching rapidly. This feels like the first image of the year to me, the first photograph that has some meaning. Did you see the tiny rocket that has just launched? In a way I like the tree on the right, it pushes the whole composition out of balance and c...
