in almost four weeks I’ve climbed the Rocky Mountains with my old but lovely 1989 Aerostar, waded through a lake of salt, walked over a vulcano, crossed the desert, celebrated my craziest christmas ever in Vegas, was blessed by “Honest Mechanics” who didn’t charge me one buck because they are still wondering why my engine didn’t break into 1000 pieces, played Cowboy in front of some big rocks in Monument Valley and Indian at the Grand Canyon, took a deep breath at the beach of LA, had a long conversation with my neighbor in a motel (who was a drugdealer by the way) who warned me about cocaine but guessed that meth would fit better to me and gave me a gold coin as farewell present, swum with the whales in Long Beach and still have the taste of Texas’ oil in it’s purest form on my tounge; man – what an awesome trip! …and yes, of course I stayed clean mom ; )

my first thanksgiving in america! nisha’s cousin julie invited me for thanksgiving dinner and I ate my first turkey surrounded by the whole loving family, which means 20 or more people. after one hour I stopped counting; )
“Don’t even think about it!” were the last words of his father before the little boy jumped into the puddle.

This picture would be a normal picture – if there wouldn’t have been the sun right above his
head. The water rings in the puddle, the last words of his father which you can’t see but if you know them it suddenly let’s you feel everything again. The warm sun on your skin when you was a child, playing all day long outside and the time when you thought the world would perish because you dropped a plate in thousand pieces. The time when time was extended.

since I am travelling so much I see the sky in a different way and I can not help myself…it is so fascinating for me; I could shoot 200 frames in 200 steps of the same cloud-it will always look different, beautiful, fascinating, sometimes the colors are looking like they would appear only for me…

MPW is over. It was an amazing week, with amazing photographers and more amazing characters! Strangers became friends and to some I still feel very close. I also met Nisha who is in jail since eight month now. She gave birth to Lyla, three weeks before she had to go. But please have a look at Nisha’s story at my website.
