A sculpture/ assemblage that took a long time to get right. It is made from vintage Cuisenaire rods (used to teach Maths). The difficulty I discovered is that each extra piece you add changes the composition so you essentially have a sculptural problem as soon as you have about three or four rods. You have to balance the composition and the colours. As you go though, you obliterate most of your earlier work by fixing new rods over the others. As you add more the scale of the rods relative to the whole size of the piece changes so that adds another problem to contend with. On top of that, the whole piece wants to tip over (because I wanted the dynamism of the piece intersecting the floor plane at an angle) so the centre of gravity defines the shape also to some extent. Anyway, a strangely difficult piece (but you wouldn’t think it to look at it). About 400mm tip to base.

It was interesting to see the extremely modern design in the Continental Ballrooms of the Hilton, which originally is done in Beaux-Arts style. I decided that mono shows the beauty of the details best, regardless of the architectural style. However friends, have a colorful weekend. Happy Mothers Day to all momy Flickr friends 💐. Thank you for your visit ☺️
There are subjects that have been photographed thousands of times.
For me, the point is not to show once more what a place looks like,
but how it feels when I connect it with my own imagination.
Stuttgart City Library is a strong piece of architecture,
but in a purely documentary image it becomes interchangeable for me.
It’s the kind of picture you look at for a moment and forget the next day.
For the wall, I am looking for something else:
an interpretation that still inspires years later.
So this is not a classic documentary photograph.
I take the idea of the architecture and push it further –
into a calmer, clearer, futuristic version that still remains believable.
A smartphone could document this space perfectly well.
So why do we walk in with high-end cameras and lenses
only to produce yet another “correct” documentation?
I deliberately photograph in a way that turns a real location into a personal world.
Many architectural images are clean and technically correct – and still interchangeable.
One has a bit more sharpness, another a bit less noise,
but in the end it’s essentially the same picture.
You recognize the building, but not the person, the photographer, the artist behind it.
That’s where such images lose their impact, especially if you want to live with them on your wall.
Do we really want to contribute the ten-thousandth version of the same scene?
Creating your own visual worlds is much more demanding.
There is no template, nothing to copy, no guaranteed formula.
All you have is your inner idea of the place, and everything has to build around that:
colors that work together, light that carries a certain mood,
and the question of what this image is supposed to express.
That’s also why such a style is hard to imitate –
there is no preset for it, only the artist’s handwriting.
It took me a long time to understand this.
For many years I held back my own signature because I thought
photography had to be “correct” first and foremost.
But that way of working makes many images age quickly.
Photography becomes truly interesting when you dare to think a subject further –
not just to document, but to interpret.
That is what interests me today:
revealing the potential of a place, not just its surface.
If this image encourages other photographers to repeat less
and show more of their own signature, it has done its job.
There are far more possibilities than “natural colors” or “black and white”.
Once you allow your inner version of a subject to flow into the picture,
you start creating images you genuinely want to keep for a long time.

in the glass door at the top —
don’t worry, that’s me. 😉

La dernière surprise de cette bonne journée.
Le château d'eau de Sélestat, tel un phare dans cette obscurité de fin d'après-midi.
Il fut construit au milieu de la période allemande, en 1906, face à un besoin grandissant d'eau pour la garnison à proximité. Du haut de ses 50 mètres, il renferme jusqu'à 500 m³ de cette ressource essentielle, mais cela n'a pas été une sinécure. En effet, au début du XXe siècle, le Reichsland d'Elsaß-Lothringen est de plus en plus difficile à tenir et les pouvoirs de l'Empereur doivent toujours être renouvelé. La plupart du temps par des nominations ou des arrivés de troupe.
Dans notre cas présent, bien que l'eau était une ressource essentielle, la municipalité de pouvais pas se le permettre car elle n'en avait ni les moyens techniques ni les moyens financiers pour mener à bien ce projet. Behr, ingénieur des services des eaux fut amené en ville pour faire passer en force ce besoin militaire. La ville cède donc finalement et en moins de deux ans, près de 10 000 habitants furent rattaché à cette prouesse technologique de l'époque.
Composé des meilleurs matériaux de l'époque (béton + fer = béton armé), il fut magnifié par l'ajout d'un parement de brique jaune et dans un style tout aussi en vogue, le retour du roman (le néo-roman) si cher au Allemands à cette époque. Et le tout surmonté d'un toit en poivrière ayant eu en alternance les symboles des conquérants.

My photographic image of shadows and light of an old curved bench seat I captured whilst strolling through Dubbo Botanical Gardens, outback New South Wales, Australia.
This curved bench timber seat caught my attention with the late sun creating a nice defined shadow of the curves and wooden slats.

Trapezoid quadrilateral, rectangles, ovals, and squares. I was just doodling around in photoshop and decided to try some of the various tools and see what would happen. Well this is what happened. I love intense colors and just had to make them really colorful.
Moai statues are the iconic monolithic figures of Easter Island (Rapa Nui), a Chilean territory in the Pacific. This small wooden statue was a bought from a gift shop in Santiago in 2023.

In this minimalist architectural study, I focused on how light plays across concrete surfaces to create subtle gradients and sharp edges. The composition explores the dialogue between rigid geometric forms and the flowing nature of light.
The Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown in Lisbon is a biomedical research center specializing in neuroscience and cancer studies. Opened in 2010 and designed by Charles Correa, its modern architecture sits along the waterfront, offering striking geometric lines and open spaces. I spent a couple of hours capturing its curves, reflections, and dynamic light—an ideal spot for photography.
