I'm not sure if I'm already finished with sorting out the pictures I took.

But here I present four albums containing photos of my four-day venice trip.
Two of the are concept albums, one is meant to document my visit to 2009 arte biennale and the last one is what I'd call "miscellaneous".

Enjoy!

Very sweet!

I'm content enough and proudly present you my latest album, "Mainbaum".

If I could, I 'd change the default time of the slideshow to 10 seconds.
If you have that much patience, please change it by your own.

Olé!

Here are some of the pictures I took from February 4th to February 10th in Paris.

Last year I had quite a success as a photographer.

I won a photo contest for pictures of the soccer world championship in Germany.

Here's the proof ;):

Here's the prize:

To be precise: The prize was a free, one year leasing contract for this BMW.

Today I had to return the car. Now I have to walk again.

Sad enough.

1 day after:

How unfair: a free parking lot in front of my house (this is quite a rarity in the part of Frankfurt where I live).

It's only since recently that I recognized the great feature to add sound files to an album.

Actually I found it quite difficult to find music which I consider totally in tune with the character of my pictures.

It was much easier to find music which is from its character perhaps almost opponent to the picture.
However, I think the music I chose for my "Frankfurt Architecture" album gives a quite interesting contrast to the photos.

So here I proudly present my second album with music:

Frankfurt Architecture

Most of my pictures I take on sundays. I start from my flat and go somewhere in Frankfurt.

Today I started as usual and was decided to go a while before taking any pictures.

However, I stuck in the close neighbourhood.

Here are the results:

In last year's winter, I met two guys in the Osthafen area, an industrial harbour in Frankfurt/Main, Germany:

Hello, World!

Türsteher

When I tried to see them again some weeks ago, I had to learn that they left for good:

Urban Fragments

Sic transit ... ;-)
