vertigo Rain might keep me from shooting, but drizzle isn’t so bad. So, today I managed to finish the two rolls of 120 I had planned for yesterday – a roll of Rollei CR200 and a ...
tones Although I mostly shoot street I occasionally dabble in other genres. These shots taken in Barcelona are examples of such endeavours. If you ask me, Barcelona is a great city, not only to see pretty ...
good boy I almost didn’t take any of the shots I’m posting today, because I wasn’t planning on taking a camera to the Nick Cave concert. I only changed my mind last minute and if you’ve seen the concert pictures you ...
of red carpets and alien temples The first development tank I ever bought was a Jobo 1520. I wanted quality that would last, so I invested. The only problem was that it actually broke after only a few rolls! Somehow the lid ...
companionship You know, little triumphs go like this: Turns out that the instant coffee I use for developing a lot of my film is cheaper when I buy two jars at once! I now also convinced ...
(cos)playing Yesterday I felt like the universe was trying to prevent me from shooting. Just as I was about to go for a walk with my Rollei it started pouring down. Today I remedied the situation ...
in that other world At the moment I’m experimenting again with stand-development in Rodinal. When I first started with it I actually did a lot of careless agitation, which increased grain. Later I tried to learn from my experiences ...

grrr I don’t have much time to edit pictures these days, so I’ll show you some stuff from the archives instead. Since these were taken quite a while back I really can’t remember the circumstances. They ...

hanging around All pictures taken with my Olympus Pen E-PL3 and my Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7. When we were looking for flats we once ended up in the old East near Karl-Marx-Allee. The flat we looked at ...
Opernwerkstätten The day before yesterday I used the opportunity of the Olympus Photography Playground to explore the Opernwerkstätten a bit. I didn’t get to see everything, but I already enjoyed what I saw a lot. This ...
day 293: the library of the future This picture was taken on the campus of the Freie Universität in Berlin a week ago. I was there for an interview and was walking around the building before the session was scheduled. The ...
day 263: tower of babel I have a sort of strange obsession with towers lately and especially the Tower of Babel seems to follow me around as well. I wanted an Escher print for my wall and originally I was ...
day 222: staring at the ceilings The guys from Einstürzende Neubauten – one of my favourite bands – don’t like stucco. They once played a gig in a squat somewhere and got really annoyed with the stucco on the walls ...
