When I have new gear, like in this case the Canon EOS R, I like to try it in as many situations as possible to really get to know the camera. So I took it with me when we visited a water polo game in Ludwigshafen. When entering the venue I started to have big […]
I’m fascinated by train stations. People, leading lines, lots of colours and more. In other words lots and lots of opportunities for interesting subjects and compositions. A trip home by train, from a little bit south of Stuttgart, therefore was a great way to get better acquainted with a recently acquired new piece of gear, […]
Olympiastadion (German pronunciation: [ʔoˈlʏmpi̯aːˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn]) is a stadium located in Munich, Germany. Situated at the heart of the Olympiapark München in northern Munich, the stadium was built as the main venue for the 1972 Summer Olympics.

There is a big bonus to traveling by train. You have to wait at train stations and often need to take a tunnel or two to get where you want to be. Both subjects are photographically interesting as they naturally offer leading lines. And of course one is often not waiting alone, people of all […]
In front of the public in Halle 7 of the ÖVB Arena in Bremen the Latin formation teams of the 1. Bundesliga showed their absolute best.

Kurhaus Casino Baden-Baden is one of those venue that is a perfect match for a Ballroom competition. This year a Rangliste Seniors 2 Ballroom was held in this magnificent hall. Just as two years ago it was a blast to shoot here. Photos from this event are for sale on vstudio-fotografie.de
Every year Hessen Tanzt is one of the highlights of the year for me. This competition with more than 6.000 dancers from Germany and neighbouring countries is one of the worlds biggest amateur competitions. They are simultaneously taking place on up to 8 floors simultaneously. That in itself is an enormous achievement by the organisation and a true […]
Dropped by the Audi Forum in Neckarsulm today to pick up something and have a cup of coffee with my contactperson there. As she was still busy I killed the waiting time by shooting around a little with the Sigma dp1 Quattro. A different but interesting camera. Have it here already for a few months but […]
