when i didn´t work in the office i spend my time in the mountains of the vosges in france.

 

 

there´s enough time for doing nothing - drinking a good glas of wine, meet friends, doing some kind of arts and crafts or sitting in front of the house.

 

 

till january 2007 i calling a digital camera (bought at ALDI)as my own - only a compact camera, but really good - typical ALDI. in June 2007 a bought a Pentax K10D with two lens. i´m really happy now with this one.

 

 

with photoshop and illustrator - my two favorite tools - i began to reworked some of my pictures. particulary the pictures of me infront of the wall inspired me to match pictures and create new moods. there´s the beginning of some collaborations.

i having so much fun with the "pimp my pixel group" there are some good guys they inspired me to my first artworks and gave me with the comments so many helpful suggestions.

two groups on an other level with professional artists and the intention to create artworks giving me new ideas, work harder and get better with my tools.

2008 was a very intresting year. i developed in some part:

i begun working with the manual mode of my camera, i had some interesting collaborations, i meet my first flickr friend in berlin and my illustrations get better and better.

 

 

for 2009 i want to do some more real meetings with other flickrs. i will visite provance in spring (april or may) and perhaps canada in autumn.

if anybody visit germany or france, near the border to switzerland let it me know - perhaps we can meet us and share our ideas and doing something together.

 

 

i´m also searching for collaborations. if you have an idea - please stay in contact with me and let us show what we can do together.
