Impressions from the BETWEEN THE LIGHT exhibition opening

April 19, 2018

Vernissage

On Saturday April 14th 2018 we proudly opened the BETWEEN THE LIGHT exhibition at Dentprevent Privatzahnärzte in the Tower of the Freiburg train station. Despite the weather we were happy to welcome so many friends, family members and photography enthusiasts at the reception. I especially enjoyed that my brother was able to play two wonderful guitar compositions at the beginning of the event. Thank you Micha! All the images below are taken by Johannes Meger who not only showed an incredible eye and captured the best moments of the event, he also played a major role in making all this happen. A huge and big thank you goes to Mrs. Santhal Varljen who did everything possible to organize the exhibition.

Dr. Sebasjan Varlien held an introduction speech that very precisely and kindly described my work. You can find an excerpt from this speech below.

The show encompasses the series BETWEEN THE LIGHT and TIGER STRIPED SKIES with a total of 35 images. It will run until January 2019.

 

Excerpts from the speech by Dr. Sebastjan Varlien [German]

"Er liebt die Momente der frühen Morgen- und Abendstunden, in denen sich das natürliche Licht mit der von Menschen geschaffenen Beleuchtung fließend vermischt.
Er verwendet ausschließlich analogen Farbfilm, den er raffiniert belichtet und entwickelt. Die dadurch entstehenden Farben zeigen einzigartige Töne und Verläufe. Gekonnt eingesetzte Langzeitbelichtung lässt eine vertraute, intime und doch bühnenhaft entrückte Wirkung entstehen.

Das Auge sucht Vertrautes und findet Ungewöhnliches. Das Menschliche ist präsent in den Dingen, die hinterlassen wurden. Es ist weniger  sichtbar, mehr spürbar. Man fragt sich, was vor dem Foto geschehen ist, und was danach kommt. Schemenhaft, transparent und bewegt sind einzelne Personen zu erkennen. Mikroskopische Bewegungen in sonst statischen Arrangements. Die Szenen laden ein zum stillen Erleben."

A FRESH TAKE ON KODAK FILM EMULATION FOR LIGHTROOM

INTRODUCTION

What is it that draws photographers to film, despite its somewhat outdated nature? I've written at length on this blog about the tactile, emotional, and aesthetic qualities of analog photography — and I still believe that digital can rarely replace the joy of loading a roll, advancing the film lever, hearing the satisfying shutter sound, and embracing the beautiful uncertainty of results.

Still, digital photography is often more practical. That’s why so many film photographers — myself included — look for tools to emulate the feel of analog film in a digital workflow. Over the years, a number of companies have emerged in this space: Mastin Labs, RNI, The Classic Presets, Dehancer — and now, a new contender: ColorPrecision, developed by film enthusiast and colorist Owen Markham.

A SILENT JOURNEY THROUGH VENICE

Exploring the Floating City with a Canon AE-1

Venice in the fall. The city breathes differently when the summer crowds fade. The soft, diffused light reflects on the water, casting subtle ripples on ancient facades. The damp air carries the scent of salt and history. I arrived with no fixed plan—just my Canon AE-1 and a few rolls of Kodak Vision3, ready to capture whatever unfolded in front of me.

DEHANCER FILM LIGHTROOM PLUGIN REVIEW

A personal take on one of the most popular film emulation tools

This isn’t your typical review! Instead, it’s a report on my hands-on experience with Dehancer Film, breaking down the key aspects of the software. After experimenting with its interface and creating a range of looks, I wanted to see if Dehancer could complement my digital workflow, especially since I primarily shoot analog film.

No. 24 — A Visual Journey

Introduction On many of my travels, I often seek out architectural gems: small houses that are iconic and stylistically significant but lie off the beaten tourist paths and aren't featured on every influencer's account. One of these significant masterpieces is the Alvar Aalto House in Helsinki, a place where architecture and light form a poetic symbiosis. During my visit, I was impressed by the thoughtful spatial design and the warm, natural lighting. The flowing forms and organic materials tell the story of an architect who masterfully knew how to direct light. To view the rooms undisturbed and in peace, the Alvar Aalto Foundation limits group sizes to a small number of participants. After a very knowledgeable and engaging tour, I had the opportunity to explore and photograph the house on my own. I will elaborate on the specific photographic techniques later, but first, let’s take a brief look at who Alvar Aalto

Camera Scanning Part IV
Camera Scanning Part IV

If, like me, you've been captivated by scanning over the years and simply enjoy digitizing film, it's clear that you follow the market and the countless options available to you. I've written several times about the possibility of building your own small scanner setup. By now, my own setup has changed significantly and what started with a few simple components has grown into a very precise tool. I get a lot of joy from it and can finally scan films the way I want. However, to get this far, I had to overcome several hurdles. But let's start from the beginning.
