2020-09-12 THE HARBOR IN HAMBURG
For exploring the harbor in Hamburg, I would start in St. Pauli. There you have some Fisch-Restaurants and the authentic flair which makes Hamburg. Men are sitting with beer and fish rolls, watching the bustle of ships and boats.

2020-09-10 THE NEW ITALY
Are you looking at Cinque Terre? This Italy is not real; it is one part of the Italian exhibition in the Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg. It is an extravaganza for a modeling freak, half of the world is built already. You can see hundreds of trains, buildings, and mountains all in miniature format.

2020-09-08 FOOTBALL IN GENOVA
On the way back to the parking lot, I saw that soccer field. Sportspeople were playing football in the middle of Genova. Between highways and streets with cars, a photo which represents Italian city life.

2020-09-06 THE SWISS MOUNTAINS
My wife Karin worked for one year in Switzerland. Though it was thirty years ago, she wants to see Switzerland now and then. In August we made a 2-day trip, where I could get some mountain-peak photos. Always fascinating how clean and neat this country is. I wondered how many Jews I saw in Davos and Klosters, and I had them on my photo too. It seems it is a popular holiday destination for them.

2020-09-04 THE RHAETIAN RAILWAY
It was fascinating to watch the Swiss trains always coming on time in the stations. The rail operations are running like clockwork. On the photo is my son, Maro, waiting to get to Klosters.

2020-09-02 LEAVING PALAIS FERSTEL
Before leaving Palais Ferstel, I could place my wife Karin’s shot with the contrast of the sunny outside road and the darker inside mood. Older buildings with differences are often the right choice for black and white photos. The scenery looks more coherent.

2020-08-31 STREET IN GENOVA
Genoa was pretty empty, only a few people on the streets. I was able to use our stay for many photos; this city has endless motifs.

2020-08-29 AMSTERDAM MUSEUM
In many museums, not only exhibitions are fascinating. You can often find exciting photo motifs in side rooms and staircases. The photo shows the Van Gogh Museum, where my son is just going down the stairs, and two Asian women are trying a photo session.

2020-08-28 NEAR THE SOPHIENSÄLE
I have never been to the Sophiensaal, an attraction for tourists in Vienna. I can offer a photo from the outside that represents typical old Vienna. Statue with a venerable rider behind it lofty buildings from the time of Maria Theresa.

2020-08-26 WALKING MAN IN GENOVA
For me, Genova is the most magnificent city in Italy. The big and high buildings with high walls, the gigantic windows, and massive wooden doors. That all combined with Italian architecture art built between high and low streets and alleys. The city is close to the sea, with a big harbor, Italy at its best.
