I bought some battery operated fairy lights for my huge "money tree" (crassula ovata also known as jade plant), to use at Christmas, so of course, had to try them out!
Max was fascinated by the reflection the lights cast on the wall alongside the plant.
Similar shot from earlier just a different camera and a different angle of view. Mainly using the d200 as a light meter for the preceding shots tagged Medium Format.

The Flax Barn at Laren is one of Liebermann’s main works among his large-scale paintings of groups of people and workers from the 1880s. At the time, Holland was an important destination for Liebermann and his contemporaries. They saw Rembrandt and Frans Hals as their artistic role models, and by working directly from observation of their subjects, they learned to leave their dark studios and to shake off the fetters of Munkácsy’s working methods. In addition, in Holland they found the ideal of a bourgeois society and a solid social structure put into practice. At the time, plein air painting was still confusingly modern, but The Flax Barn at Laren was all the more offensive for the scale of development of its subject matter.
In a bright, low, yet extensive shed, all the figures are performing the same task, spinning flax. By the wall under the windows, there are children using flywheels to wind the flax onto spindles. Women and girls stand spaced throughout the room, each with a bundle of flax under her arm, spinning the thread with her hands. The scene is marked by its strong, even rhythm; in their structure the parallels of the floorboards and the beams strengthen the harmony of the work. The women stand in the space like “pillars.” The work depicts the calm of everyday life — and a sense of permanence in the monotony of constantly repeated movements. The colours are also without dramatic contrasts, reserved and cool. That peculiarly Dutch, pale, silvery-grey light, which Liebermann loved so much, permeates the scene. Above all it is the light here, in all its various reflections, that underlines the life and beauty of the scene — an everyday poem, calm and composed.

Painter and print-maker.
Love the art that he created .
Max was hated by the Nazis because of his artwork.
Over 326 of his paintings were taken down from German museums.
Some of his paintings were displayed in the Degenerate Art exhibition of 1937.
That is what the Nazis called art (Degenerate Art),
That didnt fit into the mold they considered art,
Kind of ironic a degenerate philosophy of the Nazis,
Could call anything degenerate,
Especially people and great art,
Max went into seclusion in rural Pomerania.
Max made many prints,
Producing 421 lithographs, 315 woodcuts and engravings,
Max was also a teacher at the Berlin Academy for ten years,

“I started driving them about 40 years ago. I’m a graduate engineer and I worked overseas in aid for a long time. When I got divorced, I had to do something else for a bit. So I got into cars because I could do it. I decided to work on cars that I liked, and now I exclusively work with the Mini.
This car came my way a long time ago. It just got left with me, nobody really wanted it. When my daughter said she wanted a car, I decided to do it up. I took it to pieces and repaired it completely. She gave it back when she had no use for it, and I’ve been driving it around since; I can’t seem to let go of it. The great thing about these cars is that I can buy every part for it. These are toys, I can play with them – I can take bits out, I can change and alter anything as I like. I’m Max and I maximise Minis.”
