Reflections in Beyenburg~
Leaving the city always shifts something in me. The pace changes, and for a while, I find myself unsure of what to do with my camera. In the rhythm of city life, I’m drawn to people, movement, the way figures interact with buildings and space. But when I step into nature, like today in Beyenburg,…

“Chasing the Winter Sun: A Timeless Connection to Light and Life”
images taken today in the Abrahamic Family House, in Abu Dhabi with the slogan: “Diverse in our Faiths.Common in our Humanity.Together in Peace.” The golden embrace of the sun is a profound gift that transcends time, connecting ancient civilizations to modern-day life.

Day 10~ September 10th~ Tuscany
After many years of fascination and research of cathedrals, I have come to discover that these massive houses of worship were mostly constructed over generations in places that held a great historical significance. If you dig deeper into the history of cathedrals like Chartres in France and the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence,…

Incredible how fast the time moves in certain aspects of our lives and in others it stands still. Here I am in month 8 of this 365 project and I feels like I only just began. We have travelled together to 7 different countries with daily posts, photos, words and impressions and I loved every…
