Autres directions

Another one from the signs and symbols category.

Ave Maria

The first photo from Belgium in this blog.

Door

Taken not far away from the previous one, but not on the same day.

One way

One of the first photos taken back in Hamburg after the vacation.

Merci

In France, I finally had the chance to see some nice cemeteries again.

Stepladder

This one is from 2009 already, but it somehow fits with what I'm currently shooting.

Watchtower

Not as old as the one from yesterday.

Grocery

An old one.

Plate

Filled with things you probably shouldn't eat right now. Slide film again.

Election Eve

We had a state election here two weeks ago and due to a couple of new rules a lot of people thought that it was a lot more complicated than usual. This picture somehow seems to confirm that.

Incidentally, today's title is also the name of a book by William Eggleston...

Worker symbol

Symbols of the world, unite?

Park

One of the pictures that are more about what you can't see than what's on the photo.

Yogurt

I'm unearthing a couple of older color photos quite some time after I stopped taking them. Maybe I'll try again one day.

2 liter bottles

One more from October.

INRI, 20% off

Seen in a shop window in Cambridge a few weeks ago.

Dress form

In September, for the first time of my life, I had the chance to see the studio of a custom tailor from the inside. I was in awe because not only what they make is beautiful but also because everything about the tools and the materials had an air of dignity and pride. I very rarely wear suits, but I was really tempted to get me one.

I'll probably show a few more photos from the same venue later.

White line

Of course, there's always Robert Frank's magnificent white line which makes all others look like cheap rip-offs.

In 1996, a lot of the telephone kiosks in London looked liked this from the inside. That's probably different today - if they still exist at all.

But I'm not sure if currently I'd like to return to the UK and check myself. It seems the authorities over there are now extremely hostile towards photography and treat every photographer as a potential felon. Definitely not something a democratic country should be proud of.

Bruce Schneier wrote a good article about this topic.

October 4

Seemed like the perfect picture for today.

Fire lane

I love this one for its tonal values although otherwise there probably isn't much to write home about.
