Apartment building studies.

My grandma lives in a apartment complex. I made photos with it in it.

Ze Germans 2011 / The Night in Münster

Long exposures always look good, I guess.

Ze Germans 2012 / Random Scenes in Münster (Colour 1)

It's colour, finally.

Ze Germans 2012 / Street in Münster (B&W 2)

One observation I made during my week in Germany is that there is a sort of critical size for street photography in cities: If they are small, people won't react bewildered when you are taking photos of them, as they are not suspecting you to do wrong. If the city is big, people simply won't care because they see strange stuff every day. A lot of people in Münster seemed to be quite unhappy with me photographing them.

Ze Germans 2012 / Street in Münster (B&W 1)

My first stop was my mom's hometown, Münster. Visiting Münster always feels a bit like coming home to me, which might be why I didn't really feel that creative in the three days I spent. I don't know enough about the city to do local-ish photography, but I also know it well enough to not be inspired by it constantly. Anyway, i did make some nice photographs. Expect more. (This is a reflection of a billboard in a puddle, I didn't just photoshop a baby's face on a street.)

Everything is full of snow 2!

Parking your car for taking a shot is a serious pain atm. There are snow walls on literally every parking space.

Everything is full of snow!

We got a ridiculous amount of the stuff in the last week. I did photography.

The Street Light

I had the idea to do these shots for a long time; whenever I walked past this street light it screamed "Photo oppurtunity!" at me, but somehow I never got around to do it. These are basically test shots, I want to go back and do more.





Then, a car went past. Made for a cool effect, although I like the other version more.



Also, for good measure:

Borrowing things, taking test shots.

A few wekks ago, I borrowed a friend's Canon 10D for a while. Snapped some photos. I actually really liked the camera, although it's quite old and slow.
