The oldest existing class Tk3 light-duty freight locomotive sits on its permanent resting place near Pieksämäki railway station as a memorial locomotive. Despite it being over 90 years old and covered in rust and dust, the beautiful locomotive shines the best when the sunset gives it the spotlight.
When I lived in this neighborhood, I have a feeling that there was a black building there.
Only my memory that was about to fade is a reliance in those days because I have not been yet interested in a photograph.

ぼくがこの近辺に住んでいたころ、あそこには黒いビルがあったような気がします。
当時はまだ写真に興味を持っていなかったので、ぼくの薄れかけた記憶だけが頼りです。

when we see the beauty of the full moon,
when we see the beauty of the cherries in bloom,
when in short we brush against and are awakened by the beauty of the four seasons,
it is then that we think most of those close to us,
and want them to share the pleasure.

I am very happy! I have no idea why but this brown thrasher stayed on this spot for a couple of minutes and though this is cropped, I was a heck of a lot closer than I typically can be with any bird at all. I was concerned he wasn't okay but he flew off like it was no big deal. A nice treat for me!

The skies looked pretty innocent when I headed out to the local road end. When I got there the wind was howling and the skies were spitting rain. I had to touch up the photo a bit to remove some rain drops. The best photos seem to come when you least expect it.

This is a panorama version stitched from 4 single shots taken with portrait orientation.
I started a series with the title »When the night comes« at early winter 2013. The first 5 shots were taken at a wonderful night at Herzogstand, Bavaria. Now having some similar shots taken at another region (regarding conditons of taking the photos), I thought it could be senseful to proceed that series.
This one was made at the summit of Sonnjoch, Karwendel, where I went up in the evening to stay there with my tent. View goes to main chain of Karwendel, but most of the summits were still covered with clouds at that time.
Regarding the title:
Taking the first shots of that series, I had the beautiful song »When the night comes« in my head, written 1991 by Inga Rumpf with here band »Frumpy«. It was fitting perfect to the atmosphere with both dynamic rythmics and romantic mood.
I was supposed to go to the dentist for a cleaning eight months ago. I didn't.
Then I broke a tooth.
The dentist knows me very well. He knows I only call when there is an emergency. I think he must have my name penciled in, just in case, because he always fits me in.
What is most awesome is that I endured the visit sans Novocaine. What up, bitches?

“When photographing women, we have three paths: photograph them with the "male gaze” ; photograph them as "photographer eyes” and photograph them as "poet feeling”. I always try to be the three ...” by Old Roger
When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs.
When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.

To make someone feel, make someone relate, make someone think - this is the beauty of it all. Making some sort of an impact has and always will be my purpose in why I take photographs.
I believe as photographers, we all have a story to tell of why or how we got into photography.
2006.
A year that dramatically altered my perspective on life and the spark that ignited my passion for photography.
It was during that year, two people who meant the world to me passed away 8 months apart from each other. Never had I anticipated experiencing death at such a rapid rate. Emotional turmoil took over and depression became a part of me. I was no longer the same person, I was filled with denial, pain and sadness. I felt numb to the world and every person in it. I was in a constant battle with my emotions, not knowing where to turn for support in such a difficult time.
For months I had obsessively been glancing at sites that contained photography from Deviant Art photographers. With every picture that came across my eye while scrolling down the pages, a lightning bolt of questions and curiosity struck me: “How can someone capture something so beautiful in such a short amount of time?” The fact that each photograph was unique and held a different view fascinated me. I quickly aspired to experiment with taking pictures. Due to such a powerful curiosity, I'm sure you can imagine the delight that filled me when I got my first camera - a Canon Powershot - as a present for Christmas. Little did I know that what I first deemed as an “experiment” would within time turn into an escape, a passion that would heal me greatly.
I began to feel the world looked so much more beautiful when I looked at it through a camera's viewfinder. Every day I would be out in my backyard taking photographs, and in those moments capturing what surrounded me, I didn't feel pain. I didn't feel sadness. I didn't feel numb - I felt peace. Taking photographs made me rediscover who I was as a person. My camera became my greatest friend who knew all my secrets and witnessed me metamorphosis.
It's hard to believe it's been 3 years.
Being a part of Flickr has been such an uplifting experience for me.
Three years ago, I never would have imagined gaining such inspiration, support and friendship from so many extraordinary people. For that and so much more, I am forever grateful.
Photography is a true saving grace.
When driving home late from playing a gig, one can always find peace while waiting for a freight train to pass by. Even if it is 100 plus cars. All this while being less than four minutes from home.
“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
― Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets
