Looking

 

The modern architecture is a piece of art itself.

Surprise

 

Amidst this big nature you suddenly find modern achitecture.

Last game

 

The last game of the flowers seems desperate and dangerous.

Nature

 

Rain is in the air and the flowers are knowing they are playing their final game-

Autumn

Today I want to take you on a trip to "Museumsinsel Hombroich". A very special and unique combination of Museum, architecture, Art workshop and Nature.

Cattle Market

 

This is once again a overworked photo from my mobilephone. As I found out, these "bad" photos with a low amount of pixel are easier to transfirm into a "painted" picture than high quality phozos.

Clear2

 

Well... I don´t want to make tourist promotion for switzerland. But it is difficult, because I love the clear air, the mountains and the magnificenr view there.

Clear ...

 

If you go to switzerland, everything is clear and clean: sky, water and sun.

The mushroom rule

 

If you go for mushrooms, there is one important rule: You must not know all, but you must know those you take. The same rule fits for art. You must not master all forms of expression, but you should know those you use.

Boletus edulis

 

The highlight of a muhroom hunting always is to find a porcino. How do you call them in english/american?

Mushroom Hunting

 

Maybe yesterday you thought, I´m going crazy, because I wrote about ghosts and speeking stones... and you´re looking for an explanation. Here it ist: In the mountains, I am always hunting mushrooms. I am collecting and eating them. Maybe that´s why I am a little crazy now... (-:

Simple life

 

simple forms and clear coulors combine for a great impression.

Shadows

 

some visions are much easier to explain.

Crazy fenceposts

 

Even the fenceposts get their own life.

stone man2

 

suddenly you realise that the stone piles are watching you...

The stupa

 

Theese stones beside the way have not only a function as a signpost. They are also stupa or mani walls, offerings to the magnificence of the mountains, and efforts to appease the immense power of nature.

magic trees

 

If you realy watch out, you find hidden life not only in stones, but also in the trees... Maybe this is a an ent or even treebeard himself?

Stone Man

 

In the end, the stone man turned into a dwarf, protecting the soil, the trees and the flowers.

ghost of the mountain

 

Many old fairytales of the mountains emerged. The ghost of the mountain, the stone man was born.

Becharming3

 

The eye and the colours emerge from a computer fantasy.

Becharming2

 

Of course, as you know me, the becharming is not finished when the photobutton is pressed down. The real work starts later with the pc. Here I show you some ´variations of the same scenery.

What I did here wás alienating or becharming the landscape with little means.

Mystical views

 

The cable car: This were not my means of transportation. But a special view at sundown. Nature and technics,
melting to some kind of unit.

On 3000

 

Dear Friends. For some days I had to work in Switzerland. Of course, my camera was not lazy there. On sunday I even had the chance to go into the mountains. High, very high, at a peak of 3000m. Hard work for an old fellow like me. The streamlined young men with depilated chests were much quicker than I was... But in the end I reached the top of the Piz, with a magnificent visibility. And my walking boots had a chance to cool down and ventilate (-:

My van Gogh bridge

 

In the little town of Alkmaar I find my personal Van Gogh bridge, still working today. But what a shame today. I was working for three hours on two pictures. Like this, the result is very poor. Sorry.
