Snow covering my never-tired orange superflower on my balcony, it’s a Ringelblume / Marigold!
I scan a lot of old pinhole negatives today … remember: my bread job is gone, I’m a happy artist now! I have time and space and energy … here’s one of my alltime favourites: Santa Monica Beach with seagulls.

Whenever I work in my darkroom I have some old expired pieces of photo paper lying around and splash some developer and fixer on them. Light is on. See what happens!!!
(There‘s one with a leaf structure on it! I dumped a leaf in developer for seconds and pressed it on the paper. It‘s a phytogram then!)

This used to be a – I love the word – Kaugummiautomat / gumball machine.

Good-bye, Tagesspiegel, you old stinky sock, you hierarchical honk, my worst job ever.
I got my job termination now and I celebrate it.

That‘s the title of the book I found lying in the window, waiting for somebody to take it and be happy!

That‘s what I like: see the world from a different angle! Klemm die Lochkamera ein! Squeeze your camera somewhere!
That‘s what I did and I got this weird photo of a lamp post and some houses at Kotti (Kottbusser Tor, famous ugly spot in Berlin)!

A year’s end pinhole photo: my parents’ living room, Xmas, lights on (do you see the candles on the tree?).
2 hours exposure time.
