photographie
Lange ist es her dass ich eine Spiegelreflex in der Hand hatte. Die digitale Revolution ging zwar nicht ganz an mir vorüber, ich hab mir 1999 eine 3 MegaPixel-Kamera gekauft, dennoch fand ich nie den "drive" um mich richtig mit digitaler Photographie zu beschäftigen. Eigentlich ging es sogar in die andere Richtung, denn in 2002 hab ich mir erst mal 2 analoge Spiegelreflexkameras (SLR) besorgt. Beide von Minolta. Eine mit und eine ohne Autofokus und Programmautomatik, wobei ich die manuelle Kamera nach wie vor bevorzuge. Da der Schwarz/Weiß-Prozess sehr einfach selbst durchzuführen ist hab ich dann so gut wie nur noch S/W photographiert. Einen S/W-Film in der eine, einen Farbfilm in der anderen Kamera. Die Filme konnte ich in einem Photolabor selbst entwickeln, die Negative natürlich auch. Lang ist es her
Had a bad night. Hardly couldn't sleep. I'm surfing a little bit. Not much just a little. While looking for card game photos I found an interesting artist at flickr. I found his "playing card death in SE Asia" really cool!
The first time in Paris was somehow very exciting. I traveld with Easyjet for the first time. Actually I planed a round trip from Berlin to Paris, from Paris to London, from London to Bern, and from Bern back to Berlin. My third stay was planed in France with a friend of mine. She was studying in Berlin and offered me to stay. One week before the journey they did not reply on anything and so I had to cancel all the other travels. It doesn't get me off my plans to see Paris. It was the most lovely time I every had in my life. This city is my favourite! Culture, cinemas, food, people, everythings brilliant.
Since last week we are back from Paris, we have had a beautiful week in a cheap and nice hotel in the south/east of Paris in St Germain. From there you can get to Notre Dame within 5 minutes. There are many very good restaurants around. The one I really loved provided us with an excellent dish of couscous and wine and is calle "Le Bievre". The museums are great, try Musée Picasso; the churches are beautiful, try Sainte Chapelle. There is so many to see an love. Don’t forget the eifel tower. And whenever you want to eat something buy a baguette.
When I was living at the dormitory "Victor Jara" in Berlin Biesdorf I once had an accident with a car and was then uable to walk for about half a year. From that on I spent most of the time in the photolaboratory of that dormitory, revlating on picture and negatives after another. It was funny to see the pictures developing while they are in the chemical bath while listening to cool music.
When I came back from Vienna and even back to Berlin we had a small journey to Hamburg. There are so many things to see and do and for tourist reasons we had a small tourist bus tour. Went to the harbour later on and had some lunch. The Elbtunnel is pretty cool as well as "die alte Speicherstadt". We actually went there and visited one of the greatest permanent train miniature exhibition.
I was reading a Chagall biography when they announced the Chagall exhibition "Mythen der Bibel", I booked my train ticket to Vienna two weeks later, it was Christmas. Chagalls paintings are somehow very special to me. Before I arrived at Vienna I send an SMS to an old Chat friend of mine "Identity" and we later had a chat in a café. The city is nice, the architecture is great, there are some buildings from Hundertwasser, don't forget the Hass Haus (you won't probably miss it!) and the Stephansdom. I was walking through the city without any plan, found the Albertina and had 2 hours with the most interesting paintings seen so far.
