Kassel Connichi 11
It was my second time in Kassel, not visiting the documenta but instead the cosplay event. For the first time I used a digital equipment for my portraits which I had to get used to. But tech talk beside I realised that the main problem was, as so often, that many girls did not know…

Duesseldorf Japan Days 11

Shanghai Street
Urban strolling can be an artform by itself. Without any digital helper we searched the city for some authentic spots which are all gone by now. The fishmarket, the bride market, old city with its street vendors, the public singing gatherings. I write this text and post this pictures ten years later, after a four…
