In early December 2015 i shot a wedding ceremony of two good friends of mine, Alex and Lissy. Despite everyone being cheerful and moved, there were also a few moments of earnestness and silence. When the master of ceremony asked the decisive words, the three remaining grandparents of Alex seemed to carefully observe the moment that may change their grandson's life sustainably and reflect on their own experiences way back in the past.
I came across this homeless man who was begging for some money from people in a busy shopping street on 4th of december. He stood out at first sight. Not only because of wearing a sweater and worn out shoes, but also because he stood calm, hardly moving, within a crowd of hectic people running from shop to shop. It was a special moment when he looked through the lense with his sad and yet friendly blue eyes. I felt honored that he let me portrait him within this crowded scenery.
I took my new camera for a ride to Lauenburg. I must say: I am quite satisfied with the results in terms of image quality; even because I messed it up a little bit with the highlights. But should be ok for a web presentation, I guess.
As I try a new approach to my style of taking photos with only primes - zeiss primes ^^, I had to do a panorama here (6 vertical shots), which worked quite fine.
