Homecoming
There are still some villages where time seems to stand still. Old farms and half-timbered houses cower under mighty oaks. In the evenings cozy lights in the windows invite you to come in – homecoming … . I would like to create this atmosphere with this series of pictures.
Undine’s Realm

Seven Days by the Sea
"Seven Days by the Sea" entstand im März 2015. Ich fuhr an die Nordsee, um das spezielle glitzernde Licht und die Stille dieser Jahreszeit in Bildern und kurzen Texten einzufangen.
