I've been wanting to visit this spot for years, and finally found a day to do so. I had clear skies, so I put cameras facing in opposite directions. This camera looked out from the columns, and the other camera captured the North Star over these columns. A small moon provided helpful illumination over the landscape; this is a single image with no compositing/stacking involved.
Taken from the entrance of the Pantheon. To this day I am amazed that I was standing before and inside a building that was constructed nearly 2,000 years ago.

The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

The history column is the essential part of a fountain on the Josef-Görres-Platz in the old town of Koblenz. It was presented to the city by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate in 1992 for the 2000th anniversary celebrations. However, it was only completed and handed over to the city on June 1, 2000. The fountain with historical column was created by the sculptor Jürgen Weber. The column, which is 10.59 meters high, weighs 3.6 tons and costs DM 1.25 million, tells the moving 2000-year history of the city of Koblenz in ten images from Roman times to the present day. From 1884 until it was removed shortly after World War II, the Goeben Monument stood on the same site in honor of the Prussian General August Karl von Goeben.
The following events are shown in rows from bottom to top:
Row one: Roman fort settlement. A boat loaded with wine barrels symbolizes the Roman settlement from the 1st to the 5th century.
Row Two: Crown Estates and Conference. Venue Franconian royal court between the 6th and 9th centuries.
Row Three: From the Reich to Electoral Trier. The figures symbolize the affiliation of Koblenz to the Archdiocese of Trier in the 10th to 12th centuries.
Row Four: Crusades / Slave Trade Koblenz in the 12th and 13th centuries, the age of the Crusades.
Row Five: A thriving urban community. Figures with horses represent the thriving city of craftsmen, merchants and ecclesiastical dignitaries from the 13th to the 16th centuries.

Usually this Cistercian Abbey is busy with tourists & visitor tours meandering in & out of the many rooms which lead off this area.
The whole day had been a rather tranquil day & great place to gather your thoughts. I had the pleasure of being one of the last visitors on site just before dark. It was darker than it looks in the here & all i could hear were the squalking ravens outside echoing down the chamber. I can't deny a chilling shudder was going up my spine but i felt at peace as though there were a protective presence all around. I was in here for quite a while trying to figure how it must have been back in the 12th Century & what history these cloisters hold.
That was until a local farmer fired a gun in the next field which bellowed down the chamber....now that did make me jump ! Quickly, up'd tripod & off ! But i will return to visit the protectors of Fountains Abbey.
