With the
thanksgiving turkey flavor still in my mouth, I was
all energized to face the elements on this cold and
beautiful November morning. For a long time I had
in mind to shoot this old factory building in
Saxonville, Framingham, Massachusetts. I drive by
there on a fairly regular basis. And although there
is nothing really special about this building, for
some reason it always showed a certain beauty
sitting next to the lake. Read

Throughout of the
month of October I went out on various occasions
and tried to capture the mood of
this years fall. The result is
a collection of reds, yellows, greens and
browns. Some of these images make me understand
when I heard someone years ago say that late
fall produces a warm brown tone, no matter
whether the sun shines or it rains. This is a
nice summary showing the different moods light
at different times of the day can create. And
daylight is just so much more workable in fall
than it is in the summer or even spring.

After a while of
thinking and pondering, I came finally up with a
home(front) page design that I really like. For
those of of you that did not see the old front page
- well, you did not miss much. I will try and keep
the slideshow there somewhat up to date and will
exchange the pictures over time. I hope you like
it. Let me know if you don't.

This morning,
well, the late morning I stepped outside my house
and saw this. I simply wanted to share this
absolutely stunning view - I guess I can enjoy this
for a couple of more weeks before this grim winter
is moving in.... The farmers
almanac says it is
going to be one - and if you can not believe
those guys, who can you trust?

The foliage is, or
actually can be, quite a feast for the eyes. Hence
the annual foliage in New
England is followed and well documented on the
net. I hope I will
make it to some cool spots this fall - depending
on how this evening goes, I actually might head
out down Rt. 2 towards southern Vermont, where
the foliage is about to peak. Waiting for it to
happen is Massachusetts can go both ways: it
either gets really gorgeous, or it simply never
really makes here leaving the trees in an
average brown. Not very desirable.... So, off to
Vermont I guess...

Since this site
opened in July 2008, there has not much been going
on in the portfolios. Despite the fact that I have
quite a few portfolio worthy images uploaded in
the fotocommunity,
they never made it to my site here. There are also
plenty of photos to be worked on from last years
trip to Southeast Asia. I just hope that one day in
the near future, I will be able to get an album
together, similar to the Hong Kong
Experience.
Changes have been
made to the Citiyside
and
Flea
Market portfolios. I
am very happy about finally adding some street
photography pictures to the Cityside since this
does loosen up the collection of mainly
architectural photos that have been in there so
far. I am also very fond of the photograph of
the stage practice of the Necessary
Stage in Singapore
while visiting a dear friend of mine. I had a
chance of observing the preparations of a rather
interesting play called "Good
People".
The play was set
in a hospice and dealt with the relationship of
three people, the medical director, a nurse and the
ill patient consuming marijuana for pain relieve. I
think the setting was in a country were marijuana
is as illegal as in Singapore itself. I never had a
chance to watch the actual play, but observing the
preparations was a lot of
fun....

The perfect Fall
weekend. The foliage not being at its peak, but
warm enough to to have a fall BBQ: Lamb wrapped in
steak, grilled to perfection. Came with a
delicious, significant amount of red wine. Well,
later that night, the phone rang and I agreed to a
photo shoot with Ian the next morning. Shortly
after the alarm clock went off and, after meeting
at the Mall, we were to off lovely Fitchburg,
Massachusetts. We drove around the downtown area
until we found something that caught our
interest. Read

The need of
leaving it all behind and a spontaneous idea
brought us to the magnificent city of Hong Kong.
With one week of planning I was not quite sure what
to expect: Chinese tradition? Millions of bikes?
Cars? Rikshas? Well, I figured I
just go and see.... Read

This was indeed an
event I am always looking forward to. The carnival
happens always on the last weekend in August, which
is the weekend before Labour Day weekend. That made
it complicated this year since Labour Day weekend
was the last one in August.So what do do?
The website was not very
informative - they archive but don't announce
there. Thank good I got a phone call just in
time as a reminder - thanks Chicken. :D.

I most certainly
doubt it. But since its launch in early July 2008
this site finally grew out of its infanty. The
overall appearance, as well as the photo viewer and
the picture organization have changed. So that
would be pretty much everything, correct? Well,
welcome and enjoy the show...
