There was a phase when I kept placing my wife in front of beautiful scenes - not to make a lovely portrait for the family album, but simply to give the landscape some scale. This photo is from that era. I’d copied the idea from photographers who put a tiny person in a grand, dramatic backdrop. Fantastic images, of course… and yet, gloriously cliché. Whenever I see one, I roll my eyes - and admire it anyway.

#Photography #BlackAndWhite #Squared

Square black-and-white photograph. In the foreground, a path made of wooden boards covered with wire mesh stretches toward the background. The mesh catches the light and creates a pattern of small, bright highlights. At the far end of the path stands a single person in silhouette, facing away from the camera. Above them, the sun shines through mist or low clouds, forming a vertical beam of light. Sparse, leafless shrubs frame the scene on both sides, while fog softens the distant landscape. The low viewpoint emphasizes the textured surface leading directly to the figure and the bright sun above.

En fyrkantig bild på en vit mask med horn. Masken har röda läppar och stora tänder och ser skräckinjagande ut och sitter på en träbit, upphängd på en vägg med mörk, mönstrad tapet.

There’s no escaping them - not even in my feed.

#Photography #BlackAndWhite #Squared

Square black-and-white photograph. Extremely minimal composition showing a small set of cat whiskers in close-up. Fine, curved lines enter the frame from the right side and sweep gently toward the center, some sharp, others faint and blurred. The background is bright and featureless, creating a high-key surface where the whiskers appear as delicate, floating arcs. No other details of the cat are visible.

fly-by-wire I

When I can't find anything new to photograph at Frankfurt Central Station, I look up. There are always cables or aeroplanes somewhere – or both.

#photography #squared #contrail #lines #clouds

Square black-and-white image of a cloudy sky. Thin clouds cover the entire sky and look a bit like fleecy clouds. In the centre at the bottom, a white quadruple contrail extends slightly to the left and a thick black tension cable extends slightly to the right from the same point. Both form a ‘V’ shape.

#SilentSunday #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Squared

Square black-and-white photograph. In the left foreground, a small cluster of bare, twisted branches enters the frame from above, sharply defined and holding a single water droplet at the lowest tip. Behind them, the background fades into dense fog, showing only the soft, blurred silhouette of a large. The ground is dark and even, with no visible details. The contrast between the crisp branches and the diffused tree creates a clear separation of planes in the mist.

isle of N

I discovered this pattern, which looks like a map, on a train at Frankfurt Central Station. I quickly pulled out my camera and snapped a photo. Then the train pulled away. I think the unfamiliar speed was worth it. 🙂

#photography #squared

Square black-and-white image of a peeling sticker on a train. The resulting patterns look like a map of islands. In the centre, half an ‘H’ and an ‘N’ can be seen. The dirt stuck to it has been smudged horizontally by the airstream.

Fog - nature’s built-in minimalism filter.

#Photography #BlackAndWhite #Squared

Square black-and-white photograph. In the foreground stands a leafless tree, its trunk slightly right of center and its branches spreading across the upper part of the frame. Behind the tree, partially obscured by dense fog, a horse grazes in a field. The ground is grassy and uneven, with faint fencing visible in the distance through the mist. The fog softens all background details, leaving only subtle outlines of the landscape.
