I am asking myself a question all the time: A few decades ago (and even still) it was not possible to obtain cameras with good optic or even other features to deliver a photo with good quality, objectively speaking, without distortion, blur, colour infringement, etc. Many people had to shoot with Polaroids, holgas, lomos, etc. Fascinatingly pictures came out that had bad quality but were regarded as art. In our days, what are many people doing? I am shooting with an excellent camera and excel…

I started a group called Protests against war in Gaza (Group) The aim of the group is to document the protests against the Gaza war. So, if you happen to have made pictures of protests against this war, you are more than welcome to add them to this pool

I go every now and then to work with the bicycle when I feel really active and the weather is kind to me. Today was one of those days. Please note that the distance is 12km each way, what is not quite short. The nicest part of it is the peace where I ride along the Rhine river. I decided today to take my camera with me and take a few pictures of a subject I was thinking of in the last days: Ships and boats. So, I left work relatively early and went along the river, starting at the so called R…

Don't wonder. This is the name of the book I bought one week ago. It is a beautiful book of Photgpraphs by Bettina Rheims (probably my favourite photographer) and Serge Bramly. It is a combination of text, a modern narration of the story of Jesus life and the photographic interpretation. Well at least the pictures caused big trouble with the Church, I can tell you. Anyway, I sat in my favourite Café at the Museum Ludwig in Cologne and read in the book, listened to the Live Bossa Nova music a…

I am going to disappear from here for 2 weeks as I am going to spend 2 weeks of Holiday in Sicily. Let's hope that I'll have a few good shots to share with you when I come back

Today I particiapted in a demonstration against the Israeli agression on Palestine in Düsseldorf/Germany. There were something like 4000 remonstrants from all possible groups, parties and individuals, Germans, Arabs and Kurds, etc. I went there to demonstrate to the German government that I am totally unsatisfied from their position towards the aggression and regarding its unconditional support for Israel in general. It was also a chance to take a few journalistic pictures.

I went today visit an exhibition on "Czech Photography of the 20th Century": www.kah-bonn.de/index_e.htm It was quite inspiring and I was mostly inspired by the old techniques of printing like OIl Prints, Gum Prints and many other processes. I am going to process my pictures in a way that is inspired by these great old pictures. The series is called KAHBRD . There are fabulous works of different styles and schools reflecting the development of photography in the last century. Among them…
