Broke my promise on Street Photography - but didn't forget it
- 3 years ago - 1 comment

Yes, i have to confess that I didn't keep my promise of starting a series on articles about street photography. I had been serious about it, and I actually started shooting street. I decided to first do and then talk. You're not going to be surprised: My pictures sucked. I shot more - they still sucked. I wondered what it was that I didn't do right. It's not that I don't know how to take candid pictures, but still, my pictures were nothing to write home about. So, I again decided to do…
Musings about Street Photography - soon to come
- October 15, 2009 - 1 comment

Yes I know - it has been almost a year ago that I promised to compile my thoughts on street photography. The more I thought about it, the more ideas came to my mind. But as it often happens to me, putting my plans into practice isn't as easy as I thought. The project, however is still on my to do list, and it is finally becoming a reality. I am not planning to talk about technique - rather about inner processes on the road to finding an image. Street or people photography, as I am experienc…
Do you know the work of Noqontrol? Probably one of the best concept artists on the net! A Must-See!!!
- August 22, 2008 - 3 comments

Ever since I moved my gallery activity from F**ckr to Ipernity, I missed seeing the great art from a number of people that didn't make the move. Among them is a man who lives in New York that consistently and repeatedly produces images that leave me speechless because they are ultimately eloquent staatements about our present times: Maciej aka Noqontrol - www.flickr.com/photos/noqontrol He's a brilliant photographer and a Photoshop wizard second to none – and IMHO he is one of the m…
A New Age of Iconoclasm?
- June 24, 2008 - 18 comments

Last weekend, I became the target of photography haters. But before you dismiss my claim, consider my story, because I have not made myself guilty of insulting anyone: I was in a crowded square in downtown Munich, Germany (on the "Münchener Freiheit"), watching old men playing a game of chess using huge wooden chess men - a very concentrated, peaceful scene. I shot a number of portraits of an old man in his seventies with a highly interesting face and then walked away. It was warm, the light…
Do you know the work of !Esco & Güilmon! ? Check him out - you'll love it!

Ever since I moved my gallery activity from F**ckr to Ipernity, I missed seeing the great art from a number of people that didn't make the move. Among them is a man who lives in Barcelona that consistently and repeatedly produces images that leave me speechless: Alex aka !Esco & Güilmon! - www.flickr.com/photos/escori He's a brilliant street photographer and a Photoshop wizard second to none (look at some of his older work) – and IMHO he is one of the most impressive arti…
Real-Life Blues causes Creativity Obstipation
- September 4, 2007 - 8 comments

It has been a long time since I last published new images. And the longer I wait before I set out to do my next image manipulation, the more I feel ill-inspired and incapable. Over the recent weeks, I have been very busy working on a couple of new projects, only to find that when my clients had paid and I in turn have settled my tax advance payments to the IRS, I find myself in the same situation as before my project - all that hard-earned money has dissolved for the benefit of our "beloved"…
Exploring the Process of Perception [Pseudo-Group]
- August 9, 2007 - 7 comments

Chances are that when making pictures, you'll have stumbled over flashes of semi-conscient snippets of perception: fleeting daydreams, premonitions of wishes, or visions of paranoia. You're looking at innate processes of perception. Show me your discoveries...

True colour rendering in pictures with multiple, dissimilar light sources. Yes, it can be done. Here's how.

Exile or new home?
- June 30, 2007 - 5 comments

I cannot ignore the fact that many of my contacts have moved to Ipernity from the service that got taken over by Y!****. Personally, I'm not sure yet whether I'll need an new home for my images. The fact that the service here is also owned by a company whose goal is to make money gives me a bad feeling in my stomach after the experience at Fl***r. We, the artists deliver the content, and others treat us as their property? Wait a minute, my identity and my contacts are mine, and I don't want t…
