Holy train!

There are Central Stations.

And there are … train swallowing cathedrals. One of them you’ll find in Antwerpen.

As I came from Rotterdam – where they are busy building a modern cathedral version of a train station – I was architectonically twice impressed.

My next project: shooting the most wonderful Central Stations around the world! (If I’ll find somebody to pay it… )

Julius guckt böse

I am quite used to discover my articles in good german newspapers and magazines – but I guess now I have to change my mind…

If you understand german: Please read also the article. It’s a great one, written by a pretty damn good journalist: Ruth Wenger.

Down Under Antwerpen

There it is: the door. In the middle of the buzzing city center of Antwerpen. The door looks like … a door. No sign on it, nothing. Enter. Follow the steps. Each one of it brings you years and years and years back in the history. Open the next door – welcome to the Wine Cellar 1550! – and you feel like being part of a movie. One of those who show the times when the VOC was conquering the worlds economy. When witches where haunted. When Napoleon ruled in Europe – and some people say he also has been there … probably drinking wine, I guess !

Okay, back to modern times: There I was … shooting the event “Unearthing Georgian Wine” – with Helmut Hetzel and Geowine. There was almost no light. And I tried to keep this atmosphere alive using as less flash light as possible.

And, by the way, georgian wine tastes great!

Holland Porträt: Zeeland

andreaege — Sat, 13 Apr 2013 15:12:08 +0000

Es gilt für ganz Holland … doch für Zeeland noch mehr: Der Horizont herrscht über die Landschaft.

Fluchtversuche sind sinnlos. Also gibt man sich ihm hin.

Die Provinz ist anders. Irgendwie salziger als der Rest Hollands. Beschienen von noch mehr Sonnenstunden. Beim Spaziergang entlang der Wasserlinie nascht man (sofern gut ausgerüstet) zur Stärkung Austern. Noch mehr Straßen klappen unverwartet einfach vor einem plötzlich senkrecht gen Himmel. Der vor Ort gefangene Oosterschelde-Hummer wird mit Strandflieder serviert.

Ein Mix aus Hiphop und Tradition. Und für Fotografen ein Wunderland an Mustern.

Let’s shoot! Let’s fight!

It was my first family photo session with a big pillow fight included! And it was fun – even when the smallest one got a little bit angry !

Icy iPhonography

andreaege — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 21:53:02 +0000

The plan was: Not to take any camera with me. Just being there, skiing, having fun… But! I! Could! Not! Resist! And anyway this was a good occasion to test the talent of my iPhone camera … while having quite a lot of fun!

I hate it …

… and I love it. It is obvious: I have a quite difficult relationship with the Pier of Scheveningen. A uglynice building with a unknown future … it is for sale.

Buy it. Please. I would be missing something if it would disappear…

Kyrko Mösse rocks!

It was summer.

It was raining.

We were spending our holiday in the middle of nowhere somewhere in the big forest called the south of Sweden. One day, just for a few minutes, the sky turned blue and we discovered the Holy Grail – at least the one for everybody who loves graveyards of oldtimers.

Have fun! (We had – until it started to rain again…)

Doeg Julius!!!

As time goes by … just a few months ago little Julius came to Amsterdam … now he is on his way back to Munich!

Macht’s gut, Julius, Ruth und Joep! Und grüßt mir den Weihnachtsmarkt!!!

Hope to see you again soon!
