New York City, 2009
Best of luck to my friends on the East Coast. I hope the storm won't hit you too hard. I secretly wish I could be there and take pictures on the streets.
Exhibition opening today!
This is a super short notice for the EMPTY_ROOMS exhibition in Wiesbaden, Germany. This is an event taking place in an abandoned shopping mall showing works of nine very different artists. Most of the shown work was created inside the empty mall. Besides photography, artists are showing installations and video art. The above picture is one of the pictures I'll be showing.

Going Nowhere Fast Today
Here is one advice: when going through your archives of pictures that are years old, better don't do the mistake doing this on a Sunday night playing melancholic music. I sometimes manage to miss every place I have been to and every single person I've met. I debated with myself if I should write down more thoughts about that into this post and decided to spare you with the details - at least for now.

In case it comes surprising to you that I suddenly post a street photo from France - a place I never mentioned photographing: this is a very fresh shot from a spontaneous Sunday. What I like about such ad-hoc trips is that they are planned just within a few minutes...usually while having breakfast with Steffi. A quick brain storming, a couple of hours driving, et voila! - we are in France. I hope you'll enjoy the ride. I have more pictures coming.
