I got two books about portraiture for my birthday (both are really nice, btw). Apperently, if you want to make it on the cover with your photography, you have to ask your model into or at least close to the sea and make her hold something odd in her hands. I will try to remember and apply this neat trick on my next occasion. Any volunteer models out there?

Bern, Europaplatz
Results from a short photowalk to the Europaplatz in Bern. Here, a tram line, a bus line and two commuting train lines cross. People get off and on public transport vehicles. There’s a supermarket, a pharmacy, some fast food places, and everything is covered by the bridge of a highway. There is also a cultural and religious centre, with jewish, hindu, buddhism centres, and a mosque. A place where people meet.
All but one photos taken with a Fujifilm X-Pro 2.
(Edited on 1st of May 2018. Replaced most images by S/W copies with strong contrast. Much more adequate for those graphic street photography pics.)
2nd Prize in photo contest “Gantrisch park by night”
The institution Naturpark Gantrisch had a photo contest running where participants were invited to post up to five images, showing “life” in the Gantrisch region at night. I was a bit in a hurry because the night before the deadline I had just returned from a four week trip through the US. Anyway: I grabbed my Fuji X100F and my X-T1 with the 90 mm f/2.0 lens and went out and got a few shots. I submitted these five images:
Fujifilm X100F with WCL, TCL and digital zoom
The Fujifilm Finepix X100F (Affiliate link) – briefly X100F – is Fujifilms fourth (=F) iteration of the cult camera X100. The Web and YouTube are full of praise and emotional love letters for the X100. It is a camera that wants to be touched, picked up, handled, used. It looks gorgeous yet harmless and inconspicuous. The classical controls, with an aperture ring on the lens, a shutter speed dial and a dedicated exposure compensation dial, and numerous configurable buttons let experienced photographers cheer. No PASM dial, no cryptical multi-function dials, everything is immediately “there”.

First photo sold on Shutterstock (beginning of making a fortune, I guess)
Since last week I am offering some of photos on Shutterstock.
Made my first 25 cent from my photography (my images still suck, but I enjoy making them, nevertheless).

The photo has first been published on my instagram-Fotostream.

Abisko National Park, North Sweden
Abisko National Park, North Sweden
Located in Sweden close to the Norwegian border between Kiruna and Narvik. All shots taken with the Sony NEX-7 and the 18-200 Superzoom (Sony, 1st version). All images are OOC JPEGs.
Berlin, Alexanderplatz, Sept. 2012
Berlin Alexanderplatz is a good place to walk around with a camera. Interesting people everywhere, and nice views. The Fuji X100 worked beautifully, as always. So much fun!
Ticino in colour
No, it really doesn’t need a fast prime lens to shoot nice images. Superzooms do not necessarily ruin everything. Here are a few shots, all OOC JPEGs, taken during the summer holiday in Ticino, southern Switzerland. All but one taken with the 18-200 Sony Superzoom on an NEX-7. The shot of the statue was also made with the NEX-7, but with an adapted Contax G 45 mm f2.0 Planar.
