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. Read

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...
