Simplified Car


Some of you already know, I fell in love with the concept of downgrading or reducing color palettes or alternatively but similar, making use of cutout filters. Both methods basically give you the same result. You can make images look like they were digitally painted. Often it reminds me of older computer games from times where developers and artists had to use fewer colors, either due to code or technical restrictions (C64, Amiga, early PCs, and so on). So, here I am, I still love it. Maybe because I grew up with the stuff and color reduced pictures make me … Continue reading Simplified Car

Trying A Different Photography Niche


I’ve been bored today and it was very sunny outside, but way too hot in my living room. It was hot outside too, but not that hot. I wanted to walk outside, and after that I wanted to visit my mother.

Just look for a car dealer in the city and take … Continue reading Trying A Different Photography Niche

But it seems I experimented back then too, … Continue reading Old Film Photo: A Police Car In Berlin

Snapshots of Billy in the Car


We were in the garden again yesterday to enjoy the afternoon outdoors. The garden is just five minutes away from the home of my mother and her husband, so that it is not too much stress for their dog in the car. I was on the back seat and paid attention to him. At times I had to laugh because he seemed to enjoy to watch out of the windows and it was funny. I took these snapshots when we were in the car. The image quality is bad which is why I call them snapshots. But I still like … Continue reading Snapshots of Billy in the Car
