This week I tried to simplify my vision to only one (1) color – blue – and combined it with black & white. 4 subjects in #monochrome.

Like Torbjørn Ekelund (see his novel “Im Wald: Kleine Fluchten für das ganze Jahr“) I love wild camping throughout the year. This time I spent a perfect summer night outdoors in the forest near my home.
Photoessay. July 2018.
I’d like to tell you the stories of four of my favourite images; all of them were captured after a day of quite hard work, after gently slowing down. Finally and in the end I got more and more creative. All have one in common: I always had to take two. At least two. Two photographs? No. So, two of what?
A perfect day for our two lovely daughters.

Basel, Switzerland
Back in my old film days I was processing my black and white negative films in my own darkroom – working on the finest 35 mm and 6×6 and 6×7 cm medium format negatives, and afterwards spent a lot of time in the positive darkroom to finally get fantastic fine art black and white prints on silver rich baryta paper.
Today I still love to shoot in black and white or even more in monochrome color using my modern digital cameras.
Here is a bunch of my recent monochrome images of three epic train stations in Basel, Paris and Bédarieux. I love the analogue film look of the images.
La Tour Eiffel – Eiffel Tower. Paris. 2018-May-11. Photoessay.
Ricoh GR II, GR Lens f=18.3 mm 1:2.8, Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) with YASHICA Lens, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
We decided to take the stairs. Stair A – to be accurate – just because of the form of the ‘A’ – it is quite similar to the Eiffel Tower.

Today is a very special day – I am going to write about the making of one of my special favourites, which no one loves – but me.
As I mentioned in one of my latest articles it is most important to develop and keep your own style in photography (and everywhere else as well – by the way!) – so (for me as a keen photo enthusiast) it is not important if everyone likes my images – but it is most important, if I like them, and what I am feeling looking at them. I would like to show you the “making of” of one of those “rather difficult” images – it is one of my favourites.
