2020-04-26 CHURCH IN FRANCE
I think it was in Toulouse, where I could shoot photos inside of that marvelous church. In churches, you have to prepare the right settings for your photography, that the highlights don’t get too blown out, compared to the darker walls.

2020-04-25 TREES IN THE ANDRE HELLER GARDEN
The garden Anima lies about 30 minutes south of Marrakesh. My daughter Cara and I arrived about 45 minutes before closing time. So we had to enter fast. However, it was a fascinating experience. Andre Heller has designed a remarkable landscape with individual plants, trees, and watercourses.

2020-04-24 EVENING SPORTS IN BARCELONA
After turning into a few side streets, I saw this illuminated sports field, in the middle of the city, with a church in the background. I did not miss the opportunity to capture the scene in a photo.

2020-04-19 ENDLESS L.A.
You get this view from the Griffith Observatory. Getting there can be a bit of a hassle if a lot of people have the same idea because of traffic jams and crowded parking lots. Anyway, the view is fantastic; you can see an endless sea of lights, buildings, and streets as far as the eye can see.

2020-04-16 ANDREAS GURSKY EXHIBITION
The best photo exhibition I have seen so far. The Heathrow Gallery showed the oversized photos of Andreas Gursky. Very impressive, if you are standing in front of pictures which are 4-6 meters long. You can imagine the work behind such an image—complete peace of art, from the composition to framing and printing.

2020-04-15 THE DOLOMITES
I only knew the Dolomites from photos, stories, and the geography lesson at school. When I first stood in front of these mountain peaks last year, I was impressed. The mountain ranges stretch for many kilometers along the roads and paths. The rugged and jagged rocks bring a wild and romantic mood across—ideal for shooting mountain films and taking photos.
