day 148: Berlin at night

There is something to be said about taking pictures during a flight when you’re not so comfortable with flying. I sometimes get scared, I sometimes get motion sickness and taking pictures during takeoff and landing ...

day 147: tree monsters

Sometimes choosing a picture for the day is rather easy. Maybe I was trying around a lot until I got a specific picture right or maybe the composition was off for most of the pictures ...

day 146: street scene

I have had my Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 for a little while now and still I’m sometimes struggling to get the pictures how I want them. Maybe it has to do with my 450D, which ...

day 145: analogue cypher

I like that this picture is almost black and white, but not quite. Strange what you can find when you wander around a city for a bit. Today I saw a short documentary about Martin ...

day 144: the sea the sea

Although I shoot in colour mostly, I often end up with a black and white picture after editing. When I started this blog I was mostly posting pictures in colour, but still someone commented that ...

day 143: don’t be afraid

Today I saw a documentary on William Eggleston and I was surprised. I knew some of his pictures, but never knew his name. What was surprising to me was that his pictures have, what I ...

day 142: staring out at the sea

A lot of people start their year with new resolutions and end up forgetting about their big goals by February. Motivation is sometimes hard to maintain when the only person you are accountable to is ...

day 141: what happened to babe

Yesterday in the shop when stocking up on food I certainly found proof that the festivities aren’t fun for everyone. I was a bit surprised that they sell whole piglets with the head and everything, ...

the year 2011

As the year concludes I look back at all the pictures I took in the last almost 5 months. 140 pictures I published here and there were many more that didn’t make the cut. It ...

day 140: abstract street art

These markings on the street are like the politics that have us all entangled. On first sight it seems to make sense, but then after a while you get lost and start wondering what it ...

day 139: lights in the dark

Flying is generally not my cup of tea. It usually involves too much waiting and too many crying babies to actually be enjoyable. I also used to be quite afraid of it, but lately not ...

day 138: fountain in winter

I remember from my childhood that you shouldn’t drink fountain water since there is nasty stuff in it. We obviously had to figure out what kind of stuff and put some of the water into ...

day 137: the ice-cube-lamp

In the little extra room in my mum’s flat there is a set of lamps that creates fascinating patterns on the wall. You can agree with me that the name ice-cube-lamp is quite fitting for ...

day 136: Brühl

My mum lives close to the Brühl in Chemnitz. The area used to be very lively and I remember that it was full of people when I was little. I used to go there to ...

day 135: santa’s surveillance van

In our family my mum still tries to keep the pretence up that Santa is actually bringing the presents, although we kids are 26 and 30 now. This year there was definitely the least of ...

day 134: reading

Traveling means waiting. Killing time, reading, listening to music, eating, just so that the time passes. This man reads while waiting for the train. I took pictures of him while waiting for the train. For ...

day 133: crazy horses

The other day Ezequiel and me went to he mall again to buy some headphones for me. My black Sennheiser PX 200 died the usual cable death after just about 2 years and I decided ...

day 132: down below: Gesundbrunnen

Just two subway stops from here is a mall. It’s quite big and I checked out a few shops the other day. I was surprised about the relatively big selection of gluten free products they ...

day 131: modern day pirate

Ezequiel was on the way into battle. The opponent: an IKEA chest of drawers. He had the knife in his mouth like a pirate and that was only the beginning. In the end we won, ...

day 130: coffee envy

In the morning Ezequiel has an espresso with a little milk. Maybe I mentioned it before, I don’t know, but I love coffee. Sadly I can’t drink it anymore since my body seems to reject ...
