Many things move and excite me.

 

Black coffee, big waves, loud thunderstorms, movies, books, personalities, random trash on the street, animals, particularly wild animals, fruchtbrötchen, a passing glance of a stranger, being in motion and witnessing motion, abandoned buildings & factories, athletic endeavors, poetry, eyes that have a spark, spontaneity, nature, the smell of bark and freshly cut grass, all four seasons, honesty, crazy ideas ...

 

And of course I am really excited and passionate about photography. And that is why I like to take fotos of practically everything: the small and the large, the natural and man-made, people and animals, stillness and motion.

 

Commercially I focus on portraits, events and sports photography. My base is in Zürich. Long-term projects include urban landscapes and impressions.

 

Please feel free to comment honestly on my photos. I am here to look, to share, to be inspired and to learn and grow, so don't hold back. I would like to hear what you like AND don't like, what you perhaps would have done differently.

 

Please respect my photos, they are to be viewed, commented on and criticized but not to be used (without prior consent).

 

Please do not take it personally if I have deselected you as a contact. I would like to get to know my contacts better and I simply can't do that with over 300 contacts (in the beginning I was completely overeager and added everyone!). It certainly does not reflect on the quality of your work, but merely on personal taste and preferences and the amount of exchange we have had so far.

 

Finally, friendship means a lot to me. Who knows what this fun, creative and crazy meeting place will bestow?

 

Finally finally all images are copyrighted and cannot be reproduced without permission.

When I fist saw Ethan's stream I had that great Flickr moment when you're heart skips a beat with excitment.

When I fist saw Ethan's stream I had that great Flickr moment when you're heart skips a beat with excitment. He is one of the few streams that I love for portrait work-they focus on the bodys form; its beauty and complexity in a creative and challenging way. It's not just portraits and self portraits though, his stream is also a superb mixture of graphic images, beautiful light and dazzling colour. I keep coming back to his stream to improve my own photography and find inspiration but generally its just a joy to sit back and watch his brain at work.

It is always great to watch people do the work they are so passionate about, and do it with such an exquisite craft. Ethan is one of those people that rarely come across your path and raise the standards. I find that inspiring and motivating. But he is not only extremely good at his art, he is also a deep person and a kind, noble friend. I am grateful to know you, Ethan.

Ethan's talent is clear and it doesn't take much to appreciate it. His stream is a wonderful collection of an artist's vision of the world surrounding him. His self portraits are an expressive glimpse into his inner world and beautifully presented due to his photographic skill. Simply fantastic work All the best
