Photography

Photo tours are my great passion - especially driving through countries and landscapes discovering natural beauty, people and culture. Some examples from my trips to Norway you will find below - with a little emphasis on car and driving related pictures.

Special: MONOcolor

Millions of different colors, tones and shades make our world beautiful. But sometines the concentration on one specific color or the reduction to a very limited color spectrum which already exists in the photo can have a very impressive effect - some kind of visual focus in a different way. Therefore I started a series of pictures which reduces the photos behind on a specific "highlight" - or should I say "high color". Hope you like it. Enjoy.

Special: Experiments

I also like to do some experiments in creating photo based videos such as time lapse videos. The example below shows daylight's end in Harstad harbor, Norway.

Special: curiosities

Colorful rest area with recycled tyres in a scenic landscape

Also colorful but more a different way of safe construction

This is not a private WC for a myoptic person named "Kay", it is a public WC with a kayak rental in the same tiny building

There are places I really do not expect a WC

Speaking of WC ... this statue loses a little bit of prestige

Communication: You can spread anxiety from punishment to ensure payment ...

... or promise a better life for the soul to ge better tip.

Sometimes a genius' formula stands on a door of a storage house.

Navigation: It is not a bug of GPS it is the street system in Norway.

Open communication helps to get orientation.

A bike hanging on a street light: Most important is not to hang up the own traveller's boots - or bikes

What a good advice for a better world :-)

A coffee - nearly as tall as Berlin's TV tower

very special ... and rarely: myself
