passing the time Seen at Bahnhof Zoo. That’s one food display! I’m sure the real stuff doesn’t look anywhere near as appetising. And would anyone really ever buy sushi at a street vendor? I like the reflection in ...
bright light It was quite sunny yesterday, so there had to be at least one picture with a silhouette in it. (No) human inside. Next to the Bode Museum two guys were making soap bubbles, which seemed ...
expectation Waiting for the elevator. Glass elevators do have their perks, eh? I especially like the leg of the baby on the left. I only noticed it when looking at the picture on the big screen. ...
I wear my sunglasses everywhere This guy was one of those weird characters you can glimpse on the subway. He probably lives in a much more hard-edged world than anyone else on that subway coach. It’s certainly one with very ...
road safety Well, that sure ain’t happening, eh? At least not safely. I guess they didn’t really think about the size of their car when they bought the carpet. They sure looked disappointed. Probably the prospect of ...
childhood behaviour My new Olympus E-PL3 sure is beautiful! It is also 30% smaller and 40% lighter than my Canon and has an amazingly quiet shutter. Of course I had to go out to test it properly. ...
Universität der Künste A couple of weeks ago I went to the Universität der Künste to hand in my portfolio. Of course I took some pictures in the building and in the surroundings. This student is waiting for ...
up This staircase belongs to one of the buildings of the Technical University on Hardenbergstraße. Not sure what purpose these guys were following, but they sure seemed bored with it. This guy tried to sell me ...
on the move This was probably taken at the station Zoologischer Garten. I had to think for a while, so maybe I should put that information into my Lightroom catalog. I have developed a rather convenient workflow in ...
parenting I like how the woman on the left seems to be trying to steal the kids pretzel. Here I like the kid to the far right. And this is one example where shooting from the ...
walking Amazing what all these little people can do! Considering how difficult walking is from a coordination standpoint it’s really quite cool how fast one can learn it. Everyone is looking to one direction apart from ...
the wall I think in these pictures you can see that they were taken from the hip. The focus in the first picture is not quite in the right spot, which makes it somehow stronger, I don’t ...
crutch dance This is the view from my desk actually. Next door mainly houses doctor’s offices and so we get quite a few people walking into our courtyard. These two guys didn’t seem related to that though, ...
tree climber When I walked up the stairs to my flat I saw some guy standing on a branch on one of the trees behind my house. Well, of course I had to document it. He didn’t ...
round and round The local mall really caters to the families. There is a little playground where you can always see quite a lot of kids running around and having fun. This seems to be especially popular with ...
indignation This guy was shouting at a group of people who were blocking the entire sidewalk by walking next to each other. Quite ironic actually since supposedly he is someone going against the typically accepted social ...
street scenes I’m bad with titles. Today I just can’t think of a good title, so I’ll stay unspecific. I like this picture because of the reflection in the window and how the sunshine only hits a ...
walk faster This lovely scene made me laugh a bit when editing. Yep, these girls should probably pick up their pace a bit. Waiting for the train. Waiting for a friend. And some more waiting. These people ...
harmless fun This is such a weird picture, but I really like it. On the day in question I went out with my 50mm lens to shoot people. The results are mediocre at best. Too far away, ...
nostalgia In Berlin you can find lots of little stalls like this selling soviet memorabilia. I personally find this GDR nostalgia rather inappropriate, but well, whatever sells, eh? This was taken at Alexanderplatz. Not sure whether ...
