When Time Speeds Up~
Today I found myself drawn to three separate moments. A woman walking by the river, a quiet tram ride through the city, and the sun rising behind an old church steeple. I didn’t think of them as a series at first. But when I asked an image generator to merge them, I was surprised by…

Daily Coffee Talk~ 72/365
There is so much that keeps me doing photography day in and day out for the last almost 30 years, but one of the most incredible reasons is the ability of a single photograph to take me back. An image has the ability to encapsulate the moment and keep it alive beyond our memories, past…

Daily Coffee Talk~ 54/365
Hi my friends, I remember a world with less restrictions, a planet without a pandemic, a state of affairs when most travelled freely, and a time when the world as it is today was inconceivable. And yet, here we are, at the end of an almost 3 year run at this virus’s stroll around our…

Morning Coffee Talk~2/365
This morning I woke up with thoughts of ‘repetition’. How life here on this spinning planet demonstrates this continuously, from the sun rising daily, to our constant heartbeat, the seasons, our in-breath and out-breath, day and night,… it’s all around us.

Before they wake up~ Düsseldorf
Before the city awakens, when the light slowly paints the dark blue horizon, that’s when magic happens. To think of how many mornings we end up not witnessing this wonder makes me wish to miss more sleep. What is your favorite time to practice street photography? Photos taken early this morning on the banks of…

Between Earth and Sky~
Throughout my travels I have seen places where people felt content with who they are, blissfully living between earth and sky without want for anything more. That would seem to be the ultimate goal and the secret to happiness, being able to feel truly satisfied. These people seemed to be always doing something, busy, working,…

Reading the runes of today~
In a world where impressions and information bombard us from all directions as soon as we open our eyes in the morning, how do we make sense of what is happening in the world? In a single day you hear of a president resigning, a new scandal unfolding with another president, a child shooting other…
