Some keepers in street photography but due to other personal projects like walking the Camino Francés less art and more memories.
Last day of the year
StreetMy first Exhibition
StreetDue to the european General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) I reduced my engagement in street photography. In fact, taking pictures of strangers in the streets without asking them for permission is illegal now. But nevertheless I decided to publish a few of my older street pictures at an exhibition. It is a very new experience for me and I like it.
If you are interested and in Berlin the next days, come and see.
“La Bohème”, Winsstr. 12, 10405 Berlin

My 2017 in street photography
StreetThis year in street photography has been different for me than the three years before. No workshops, no photowalks with others and only a few planned street shootings. Most of the photographs where shot coincidentally, but I trained my skills and had more keepers per shooting. And strolling through the city is a pure joy and a remedy for dark moments.
I’m still interested in candid pictures of strangers but I’m also experimented with geometrical forms. Still processing more photographs in black and white, still digital but with an analog attitude. As a compensation I took a lot of travel and nature photographs.
I like my two mirrorless Fuji cameras but I realized, that I took most of my pics with my smartphone. It’s an unobtrusive, tiny little workhorse with a lab included, available at any time. It’s the easiest way to process my black and white pictures using the app Blackie. Technically spoken I don’t need much more than this combo.
I took part in competitions (like last year), won nothing (like last year) but experiences and got professional feedback. For next year I planned a small exhibition of my work. I’m grown with my pictures and I think, I have a few keepers to show, just for fun.
Berlin Alexanderplatz
StreetVery often the Alexanderplatz is overcrowded and has a touch of a funfair. But sometimes you find some tranquillity. I like these pictures obove, they weren’t planned. The moments aren’t really decisive but moments in time.
