red, yellow and blue January 30
Sometimes I take photos because I’m drawn to the colors.
These two are a good example of that. The subject matter isn’t all that interesting really. It’s the color that fascinated me.
scraps and what’s on the wall January 29
A few more photos from my atelier on the Erikastrasse.
The lovely tile in the second photo was screenprinted by the ever so talented Alexandra Hedberg.
And some music to start your week out right, Beirut playing a Tiny Desk Concert.
turn the camera 90 degrees. January 23
How to take a vertical photo? Turn the camera 90 degrees.
These are the instructions in one of my vintage camera manuals.
Somehow it’s not that simple for me.
I got stuck a while back in the horizontal mode and turning the camera 90 degrees is suddenly a big deal.
In 2012 I’d like to try to change that. Let’s start here with a photo from Erikastrasse 11, my sweet little atelier that I share with the amazing, Laura Jurt.
not much in focus these days January 21
Maybe you’ve been here yourself? It’s not that things aren’t going well, it’s just that there’s not too much in focus these days…
hanging flowers January 18
I couldn’t help but stop when I saw these hanging in a little floral atelier in my neighborhood. In my next life I might like to be a florist…
A song to go with the photos: From the Morning Heat by Craft Spells
selling edible wares January 16
Fruit and vegetables outdoors in winter…they always make me shiver when I walk by. I think they must be so cold.
And that little bowl is such a strange combination, isn’t it? That bowl is a rotation of unusual combinations. It can be found at Elisaburg.
cold and bright January 14
My favorite version of winter is cold and bright.
If I don’t have to go into the office on those precious days, then you’ll find me out of doors with a camera or two.
around town January 11
I sometimes fear that I might have to move just because I will one day photograph all of the interesting things in a 5 kilometer radius of my flat…but that’s a silly thought, now isn’t it?
One way to breathe fresh air into things is simply to get a new camera! The recent photos were taken with my new Mamiya 645E.
fenster eins und fenster zwei January 8
There’s a little architecture firm down the street from where I live. They like to do nice things in their windows.
This is the latest display.
I’ve got a perfect song to go with the windows: Benny Sings, Champagne People
