To my dear friends around the world,
About one year ago photography was my most precious hobby. I really liked it and took photos every now and then. I somehow felt that if I wanted to take this thing to the next level, I had to do something extraordinary. A couple of days before New Year's Eve I decided to pull a 365er since I've seen other photographers do it. It really felt like a great idea and I just went for it. What could possibly happen?
I signed up for FlickR on January 1st 2013. I wanted to have some sort of diary of the process and the chance to maybe get an audience. I will never forget the moment where the first person favorited a photo of mine and even commented it. It was amazing to see that there are others out there that seem to like what I'm seeing and feeling. As the days and weeks passed by, I still wasn't too sure about what I wanted to shoot. As you can see, my first uploads don't really have a common theme and idea. It was great that way, but after a while I lacked the fuel that kept my machine running. I didn't really have a motor behind my works.
After a couple of weeks street photography more and more became an interest of mine. What made me feel really insecure in the first 1-2 months was the fact, that my street photography was in a way different compared to the rest of the street photography community. I just had these typical street shots in black and white with lots of things going on in them in mind and I just couldn't do it. I tried and tried and thought that after I was lousy at portrait photography, this whole photography thing wasn't meant for me. I knew I had something in me, but I just couldn't really set if free. After a while I said to myself "You know what Marius, this is your project and life and you can do whatever you think is right! Most people don't care for your project anyways...". With this attitude in mind I just kept going to give street photography my signture. It felt amazing to take photos the way I felt 'em without thinking in terms of genres and rules. I felt as though I broke my chains for the first time.
"Urban Lights", the second most favorited photo I took changed everything back then. As a huge fan of www.reddit.com I submitted this photo to the international Reddit & WideAngle Photo contest just for the fun of it. I never forget the moment when they told me that I was the 1st winner of this contest with a very high quality. I was in tears since this project meant and still means the world to me. This was one of the first moments where I realized that maybe my photography might better than I think. Although awards don't really mean anything to me, it felt amazing to know that even judges liked what I was doing. During the course of the project I won 10 awards around the world and made it to 6 shortlists. These awards made me happy, but I'll never forget the first time someone told me that they started out with photography because of me or that I inspired them. This still puts a smile on my face that no award of prize money could ever give me. I really don't care for money, I care for people.
This project changed everything. At first it was a nice change of scene after sitting in the office for 9-10 hours a day as a market researcher for an international media agency. However, after 5-6 months I felt that this photography thing became more important to me than my job. I used every free minute I had to take new shots and did my post processing till 2AM every day. All of a sudden my job that I got straight out of college and that I went to college for (communication science, psychology and marketing) was the change of scenary for me. My heart and soul were commited to my photography. It wasn't a hobby anymore and it wasn't just a passion of mine - it was my life.
It wasn't until South Korea that I truly realized that. I took three weeks off to just get some shooting done. Walking down the streets of Seoul got me thinking. How amazing would it be to just travel around the world and take photos. This would be a dream of a life. People over there asked me what I'm doing for a living. I couldn't tell them that I'm a market researcher since I wasn't doing that anymore. I was doing that for a living, but I was living for photography. I always told 'em that and it felt right. Truly right. When I got back from Korea back to my everday life we had a new CEO that wanted to talk to everyone since he was new to the office. He sat down with me and at the end of our conversation he asked me how long I'll stay here since fluctuation was a huge problem. I told him "Look, I could tell you anything right now, but I'm gonna be honest with you. I want to live my dream and I'm gonna leave soon." This was really hard but liberating to say. It was a huuuuge step for me. I felt somehow miserable and relieved for days to come. I told my other supervisors one hour after our talk and handed in my notice one week later. It takes 4 month to get out of my job, so I'm gonna be free in March to live my dream. Even if my old job pays well and offers me a high standard of living, that's not what I want in life. I don't care for money neither do I care for materialistic happiness. True happiness can't be bought. It's the simple things in life like breathing the air, looking at the stars, eating good food, laughing and sharing moments with wonderful people. That's why I love life and art.
I always dreamed of this kind of life. Quite a few galeries in Germany are interested in my work and together with an international art dealer I will start to sell my art soon. It's a dream coming true. It demands hard work and perseverance, but hey, let's make the impossible possible. Mark Twain once said that "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." This project showed me that I want to live as an artist and photographer. I want to thank everyone who was and still is a part of this journey from the bottom of my heart. I couldn't have done it without you. You seriously mean the world to me!

PS: Since FlickR is really limited when it comes to posts, I will post all news, travel experiences, exhibitions and all other news around my art on my Facebook page. In case you use Facebook, I would love to have you there!
PSII: There is not much post processing involved in the photo. It was really foggy that night and I exhaled quite a few times to get that "face". Increased the contrast a little, did some split toning and my most favorite self-portrait was done.

I'm trying to push my street photography more to surrealism. I loved the textures of the wall, because they looked so organic. To me this shot looks more like a painting than a photo...Would mean the world to me if you could support me with a like for my Facebook page!

My first shot with my brand new Fujifilm XT1 and a 18mm lens. I love working with it. As I said, I'm going to continue my "human element" with my Fuji and my "Broken" series will be captured with my broken 24mm lens and my old Canon. Enjoy!

I'm proud to present my brand new set I created two days ago on Sunday in a very rural, but wonderful area called Tecklenburg in Northern Germany. It consists of 8 photos. My idea behind this project is my very own visual interpretation of Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Taken". Every photo of the set has a line or a part of a line as a title.This is the first photo. I hope you like it!

The spotlights were actually in red an yellow which gave the scenery a rather positive vibe. First time I decided to reduce strong colors to B&W, because they didn't help tell the story...Would mean the world to me if you could support me with a like for my Facebook page!

The only thing I enjoy more than falling asleep to the sound of rain, is the fun I can have with puddles the day after. I took this at Fort Baker this morning at 5:30 when the blue hues come out most in photographs. I met a little friend in the process that had come out for some much needed hydration. Poor animals must be suffering from this California drought.

I will also become famous, I will also do social networking with these photos. Aha. What I need to have is lot of time and money to call people that I have posted the next great photo in history, I need to be some with not much do, addicted to online groups, preferably away from family etc etc. Ha, that reminds me of some people who will make comments like its tilted, its over exposed, lens flare, crop suggestions, over saturated.. phew ! Especially there is a guy who has a buddy icon of fire, well let him make any such comment. This time I will teach him a lesson.
Advice: Photography is all about comments, views and favorites and yes explore, if you haven't learned that yet, do it before its too late.]
OK, now if you are a thief who is searching for p0rn photos for your news paper or magazine, you are most welcome to steal this.

I've been there at New Year's Eve and a few days before too and found out that the celestial pole is right above the mountains form that POV there, so I spontaneously used the first day of this year for another long exposure session. Luckily we got clear blue starry skies for a few hours in the evening.

Been there before a few times the last weeks by day and night but today the weather was perfect so I shot some long exposures and stacked the shots together. Wasnt't so much traffic at 9pm saturday night but anyway I think the result is viewable!
My wife has convinced me to again try two different views of the same image. She loves color images, while I love black and white. I figured I'd put it to a vote again to see which prevails. Let me know which you like better, the black and white or color version!
This image was shot along the Sea Wall around Stanley Park in Vancouver BC during a light rain.
