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.

2020-04-14  ASIAN MUSIC PLAYER IN VENICE

My wife Karin and I were on the way to the canal, where the Carnival opening would start. On a plaza, we saw that music player with this exotic musical instrument, which looked like a zither. She had a band-aid on her fingers because of the metal strings. Here music was in perfect harmony with the vibe of the city and its buildings.

2020-04-13  INSIDE A CHURCH IN VIENNA

More and more, I see a magic combination with the Sony A7R 2 and the Leica Vario-Elmar 35-70 F4 lens. Though you need a Leica R to E-Mount adapter and have to focus manually, the output is shining. According to Erwin Puts, it is one of the best Leica lenses and one of the cheapest too. It handled the tricky lighting brilliantly in the church.

2020-04-12  CYCLISTS IN AMSTERDAM

Amsterdam is the city of cyclists. It’s a good idea to rent a bike for your sightseeing; you will get forward very fast, can stop at all places and explore. There are many bicycle-lanes where Amsterdamers are quite speedy. And you have to share it even with some motorbikes. But you will adapt very fast. 🙂

2020-04-10  EXCURSION WITH MY DAUGHTER

On a Sunday afternoon, my daughter Cara, my wife Karin and I did a more extended walking tour to visit the Otto Wagner church. After a very rough walk up and down the hills, we came to the destination very sweaty. But this didn’t hinder me doing some photo-shots. For the picture I used my Leica M240 with the Leica R Vario-Elmar 35-70 F4 lens and the Leica R to M adapter.

2020-04-09  FRENCH FARMHOUSE

On the way to Mont Sainte-Victoire, we stopped searching for a parking space. I wanted to have a look at the mountain as Paul Cezanne did. We found a parking lot near some farmhouses, which became a French expressionist photo.

2020-04-08  MAKING THE SCHNITZEL

On the photo is one of the few restaurants where you can watch making a Schnitzel. You get an appetite as you walk past, then you stop to watch the schnitzel makers. Shortly afterward, you sit in the restaurant and order. The restaurant is named “Schaden und Meisel.” But currently closed as all restaurants in Vienna.
