Espe­cially if you com­bine them with water. Dur­ing our short trip through Sweden we were every even­ing again amazed about the beauty that nature was able to cre­ate for us.

As a pho­to­grapher the worst thing you can do is to not prac­tice and learn new things. So whenever an oppor­tun­ity arises you just grab the cam­era and try some. Like I did yes­ter­day. I do not really do much con­cert pho­to­graphy even though I love to exper­i­ence live music. Yes­ter­day it was the last day of the local […]

That was one epic even­ing. Out of nowhere it star­ted to storm like there was no tomor­row. After a first minute with hard rain it turned into an epic hail storm.

Because we found a few hours in the week where we did noth­ing yet… Olga took on the task of head­ing the dance sport divi­sion of the local sports club.

We just returned from a trip to the EXPO Real 2009 in Munich, a big com­mer­cial prop­erty expos­i­tion. We were there to shoot the stands of ING Real Estate and Multi Devel­op­ment.
