I like this pinhole photo. It is so … unspectacular. So grey, so foggy, so smooth!
I remember … it was a calm, soft day in early spring last year. A day off.

Yes, I’m really lucky: I have a mother who lives near the Baltic Sea (in north-west Germany) and I have good friends with a house behind the dunes on the Baltic Sea in north-east Germany! One for Christmas, one for New Year’s Eve!
I had the idea of throwing a message in a bottle into the sea at point A and then fishing it out a week later at point B. Unfortunately, I didn’t do it because I was lazy … It would have been a message to myself and maybe a good idea for a film … Damn! More films this year …




Wishing you all some laid-back time, alone or with beloved ones, North South East West, silent or party-crazy, inside outside hopeful good time!! And don’t forget to feed the birdies!



I made a very short film recently when I spent a wonderful week at my mother’s at the Baltic Sea in August.
I remember … a timeless feeling lying in the sand in the sun … and the Baltic Sea was for once in my lifetime not too cold to swim!



Ich liebe die Ostsee! I love the Baltic Sea! This time I was so lucky … had a full week of sunshine, low wind, nice heat, no rain! Quite unusual!!
I met with my brother and nephew, we helped Mama with house and garden (it’s a bit like a new beginning for her since my father died earlier this year …).
Some images!





3 days at my friends‘ at the sea, lucky me! Winter says goodbye though the wind is still pretty chilly … but the sun has power! Spring is coming!!

… with a very expired Ilford glass plate inside!




It was so still and calm … no wind at all, the sea lying there like a mirror!
Happy xmas to all!




I have a preview scanner at home … here comes a little scene from my upcoming June film!!

Another pinhole photo making. On the beach, the wintery beach, the Baltic Sea, a patient fisherman and me unobtrusively approaching, setting my coffee camera in the wet sand, opening the hole, the camera lens, 5 seconds long, just enough to capture fisherman’s photons, taking them, making a picture.
Later developed and scanned (bad scan, my scanner is ill, I just took it off my light table).



… at the Baltic Sea recently!

Seeing my parents and saying hello to the sea! And taking some pinhole photos, too.

My brother Bernd, his son David and myself went to see our parents (and to teach them the world of internet with their new computer ;-)) for a 2 days holiday. They live very close to the Baltic Sea which is quite cold and grey at this season but beautiful nonetheless. The colours merge somehow to mud. Sometimes the sun comes through, very white, very glistening. Feels very much like years end!
Whoever and whereever Eddy and Svenja are – good luck!
