Found on the advertisement banner for a day cruise ship in Krk. Wouldn’t be easy to catch such a frame if you try to do it on purpose, I think.

Ready For Prime Time
Pentecost was early this year, and with it the Bavarian school holidays. In Krk, the locals seemed to be still preparing for the guests arriving June 1st or later, when the weather is supposed to be much warmer than in the last weeks of May. For me it was still ok, as it minimized the…
Stormy Monday
At least the storm itself was not as bad as it looks here. Years ago in such a situation my wife and I spent a long hour clinging to the tent poles in order to prevent the winds from blowing the tent away.
Leaving Venice
Those days in Venice were incredibly prolific in terms of photography. Venice is attractive itself, of course, but I experienced it also as stimulating, challenging to see things in a new way, and I guess I did. But now it’s time to leave this place. Photographically I’ve been moving on since then, chewing on the…

Scarpa’s First Steps
One of the great Italian architects of the recent history was Carlo Scarpa. Appropriate to the Biennale d’Architettura, the showrooms on the Isola di San Giorgio Maggiore featured an exhibition of his early masterpieces, when he worked for the Venini Glass Works and created glass items in the nineteen-thirties, that still look fresh today. To…
Leaving The Biennale
This visit to the 2012 Biennale d’ Architettura in Venice was a gold mine for me in several aspects: No pressures, no reason for consideration of other’s preferences as I was walking alone, a fabulous setting in those old naval base halls, and a tremendous bouquet of the finest visionary powers from artist with a…
A Tree With A Purpose
This ultra modern tree of steel tubes is just a street lantern. Well adapted to a time, where it is common to believe that milk comes from tetrapaks. I am in Krk (again) at the moment, and re. internet connectivity not much has changed: shaky, low speed. So bear with me when posting becomes erratic…
God Was So Good
Electro Birds
Trees were not prevalent in the Biennale grounds, and the few existing ones were integrated into installations, like this soundscape with floating speakers in organic shapes, simulating a bird concert for the visitors.
Chair, Revisited
Wonders of the internet: google’s image search gave me the name of the designer of these chairs: Ross Lovegrove.

Passing The Tanks
The Biennale’s venue, the old Arsenale of Venice, is used as an Italian naval base until today. Parts of it can be used as exhibition halls during the recurring Biennale events, and in some of them old military installations are still visible, like these tanks. And not only visible, but also smellable with the uncomparable…
