Canadian band The Weather Station live in Munich on Europe tour. A truly inspiring and emotional experience. Not only does the lead Tamara Lindeman have a wonderful voice but she is indeed a fantastic lyricist. The band is amazing, too. Crossing genres, they are excellent live.

Stuck with the flu I rewatched Serial Experiments Lain. When I first saw it as a teen in 2004 it blew my mind. Even though it is from 1998 it is still visionary, atmospheric, haunting, thought provoking. About AI, human connection and the question: what is reality? #anime youtu.be/xVf7fiQG1NM?...

2024 - first time India for a business trip. Short, but felt like a long journey. So many new impressions! A culture I only got familiar with via calls with colleagues. Felt good to get in touch with the reality of others.

Inside New Delhi Airport: A quiet moment captured. A child stands by the large window looking out at the runway, while a man with a backpack gazes outside, lost in thought. In the foreground, another traveler lounges on a red chair, resting beside their bags on the patterned carpet. The hazy sky and empty runway stretch beyond the glass wall, giving a sense of stillness and waiting.

2010 - we went to Hyatt Park Hotel, where Lost in Translation was filmed. A small pot of tea was almost 20$. With student budget we stayed extra long. Until the clouds open for this gorgeous sunset. Was worth the money :)

A cityscape at sunset with golden sunlight casting a warm glow over the buildings. The sun is partially obscured by dark clouds, creating a dramatic contrast between light and shadow. The skyline fades into the horizon, with distant structures becoming hazy. A tall smokestack in the background emits a plume of smoke, blending into the sky. The city appears densely packed with buildings of various heights, and some windows reflect the sunlight. The atmosphere is misty, enhancing the sense of depth and scale.

2010 - family trip to Venice, also stopping by Burano. I couldn’t stop admiring these wonderful colors. Especially pretty in a summer’s afternoon sun.

2019 - dreamy spring days in Japan. Visiting family and friends. Passing by Nakameguro and Kuhonbutsu. Cherry blossoms are magical. Still have blurry childhood memories of gliding through a bright world of sakura. Dreamlike.
#Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Spring #Japan #Tokyo #九品仏 #東京 #sakura #桜 #浄真寺
A cluster of pale pink cherry blossoms with slightly curled petals is in focus, while the background fades into a dreamy blur of more sakura branches and soft sunset light. A cherry blossom tree in full bloom stretches over a body of water, with petals falling onto the water’s surface. The branches are adorned with clusters of soft pink flowers, creating a peaceful and picturesque scene. A close-up of delicate white cherry blossoms (sakura) with yellow centers, blooming on a slender branch. The background is blurred with hints of green leaves and soft pink blossoms. A traditional wooden structure, possibly a temple or shrine, is partially visible through bright green maple leaves in spring. The sunlight filters through the foliage, creating a serene and natural ambiance.

2012, One of many empty houses in northern Italy near Lago Maggiore, hidden away in the valleys. Families moved away. Without jobs, little reason to stay there. But despite the abandonment, a bit of warm, homely light.
#photography #BlueskyArtShow #abandoned #italy #urbex #LagoMaggiore #house
A dimly lit, abandoned room with peeling pinkish-red walls and a worn wooden floor. The sunlight streams through a small window, casting a sharp, geometric shadow on the wall. The ceiling has patches of missing plaster, and an old, dangling light fixture hangs from above. The open wooden door in the foreground adds depth, revealing the room’s deteriorating state.

2009. Procrastinating late into the night with uni friends. Chilli, red wine and good music. One of us had a camera that I picked up. Makes nice memories. But I can't remember next morning's lecture at all :)
#BWPhotography #photography #unilife #students #latenight #GrungeAesthetic #AfterpartyVibes
A black-and-white photograph of three friends sitting closely on a couch, holding ornate goblets. One person wears a hat and smokes a pipe, another leans back with a relaxed expression, and the third has a surprised or excited look. The scene has a vintage, candid feel. A close-up black-and-white portrait of a person with glasses, a lip piercing, and a single dreadlock standing out. The lighting highlights their facial features while keeping most of the background in shadow, creating a moody, introspective feel. A dimly lit black-and-white scene of a living room with two people lying on separate couches, surrounded by bottles, glasses, and miscellaneous items. The relaxed, almost chaotic atmosphere suggests an afterparty or a long night of socializing. A high-contrast, overexposed mirror selfie of a person holding a compact digital camera in a bathroom. They wave with one hand while the bright overhead light creates a hazy, washed-out effect.

2009, uni friends and I met for dinner. It got late and we were joking about looking pretentious smoking a pipe. One of us actually had one! Good for photos, but surely bad for lungs and throat

2009 - including a mirror selfie, when I did not know yet that selfies are a thing. Had two shots. Of course chose the one with sunglasses to make it look more 😎 ^^

2009 - visiting family in Ticino. Funny to see my old phone and netbook here, which felt like the ultimate high-tech back then. Studying for exams, with some distraction from the morning light.

2009 - After hiking we spent a few days in Edinburgh. What I love about street photography: everything around you is like an already painted canvas. Ready to be admired.

#photography #Edinburgh #Scotland #streetphotography #urban #cityscape #architecture #historicBuildings
A weathered stone wall featuring two white-framed windows, one with bars and the other open. Vertical and horizontal drainage pipes run along the facade, contrasting with the grey tones of the wall. Two neighboring doors, numbered 41 and 42, painted in deep green and blue respectively. Each door has a golden letterbox and handle. Potted plants, one lush and one dried, are placed symmetrically at the base of the doors. A series of four arched windows on a grey stone wall. The first window has white framing and curtains, while the others are opaque or bricked over, highlighting the building’s historic character. A plain grey brick wall with a sign that reads “No Ball Games” attributed to the Edinburgh City Council. Beneath the sign, mismatched letters spell “SENO” vertically.

2009 - While hiking on the West Highland Way we needed to stay at a hotel unplanned since it got too dark. Apparently it was almost sold out and we took a smoker's room. But late at night it was eerily quiet. Had some The Shining vibes.

2009 - After Glasgow my friend and I started to walk the West Highland Way from Loch Lomond. It took us only an hour or so to realise why, before we took off, so many people mentioned midges with such a deep frown on their faces ^^

2008 - Early uni years. After a painful breakup, I went for a trip to Ireland. After flights and hostel costs, having only 100 or so euros in the pocket, I took advantage of the hostel "leftover cupboard". Eggs, milk, bread etc. I remember numerous, lovely conversations #photography #Ireland #Kerry
Bright black and white image. Image of a bay with calm waters with shores in the distance. A lone bird flying towards the horizon. high contrast, black and white image of a wide river from afar and higher position. Low hanging clouds moving fast from the wind. Far in the distance is a thin bridge crossing the river. image of an island in the middle of an ocean. It's foggy and cloudy. the mountains of the island reach above the clouds Color image of a river view, a figure standing with the back to the viewer in the distance overlooking the scene from a hill. Landscape is grassy, with no trees. Good weather with a few cumulous clouds.

Hello world! Some might wonder why I popped up as a follower: the reason is starter packs😅
Not having much time besides work, I'll start sharing some material from the past.
