On January 28th 2018 I was in the mood for colors. And because I found many colorful shots on that day I posted three different ones. Let’s see if 365 days later I will be able to solve some of Read More

Abstract Photography with colors
Oz
” We read fantasy to find the colors again, I think. To taste strong spices and hear the songs the sirens sang. There is something old and true in fantasy that speaks to something deep within us, to the child Read More
Approach
On January 22th 2018 I stumbled over a wall… Well to be honest I didn’t stumble. I love this wall. I love the colors and the mood and the decay and the pareidolia. No idea if you can see it, Read More
Kiosk
Came across that newspaper kiosk today on my way to the bus. And even if it was really so fucking cold outside that your fingers freeze in seconds and even if it did make me miss the first bus, I Read More
Cut
“The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive. To him… a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an Read More
Sunset Boulevard
Luckily my old picture was still available this year. And more luckily we had rain when I was on the way to take it and so I could find something nice for today. You see reflections from neon signs on Read More
Blue-Green
“For a moment the image before us is frozen: our world, our lives, reduced to a handful broken stars half lost in uncharted space. Then it’s gone, the view swallowed by the hyperspace winds streaming past, blue-green auroras wiping the Read More
Imperfection
I remember that picture from January 15th 2018 very well. You can say that it is probably the one I repeated the most. Went on that playground over ten times to catch the portrait of that native american I could Read More
When worlds collide
On January 14th 2018 I did not cheat but left the house early. In the afternoon I stumbled over a very decayed old door in the city. And while I was just sitting on the ground to catch my picture Read More
Trees
January 13th 2018 was a grey, cold, foggy and rainy day. And so I did decide to stay at home and work on one of my quilts instead of running around outside trying to find my daily picture. And in Read More
Yesterday
When I took this picture yesterday I didn’t expect it to be waywiser for my day. But actually it was. And because the stress being high I wasn’t able to come online to post it in time, I post it Read More
People
On January 11th 2018 I went on with my abstract portrait series (if such a thing as abstract portrait does exist) and posted the picture of a high sitting guy I called “People“. And because that guy is honestly sitting Read More
Circle of Life
On January 8th 2018 I found an old wrapping paper on the street. It was wet from the rain we had over the last days. I was attracted by the colors and shapes and so I posted “Circle of Life“. Read More
Tribute
On January 7th 2018 we had a lot of rain. The Danube went out of its bonds. So I did decide to take two pictures on that day. One from the dirty waters of the Danube and one from a Read More
New World
On January 6th 2018 I was finally done reading the “definitions” about Abstract Photography. (Not saying, that I don’t have some more left, that I could share with you, if you want me to 😉😊). And because there was nothing Read More
Magic (not abstract)
“May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build Read More
Flashback
“Trauma destroys the fabric of time. In normal time you move from one moment to the next, sunrise to sunset, birth to death. After trauma, you may move in circles, find yourself being sucked backwards into an eddy or bouncing Read More
Questions over Questions
The form or shape of a subject will play a crucial role in how you approach your subject. Assess the form carefully and think about which aspects of the subject you want to exploit, for example, is it very straight and formulaic, does it lots of curves and imply movement or is it a natural object whose form will change over time? Decide whether you want the form of the subject as a whole to be within the image or whether you want to focus in on one particular area of interest. Also think about whether there are any recognisable shapes that you can work with, be it circles, triangles or hexagons, use them to your advantage!”
