Letztens waren wir zu der Hochzeit einer Schulfreundin von Julia nach Hamburg eingeladen. Und wenn man schon mal quer durch Schlahand fliegt, dann bleibt man auch gerne mal länger, um sich die Ecken anzuschauen, die man noch nicht kennt. Nunja, zumindest einer von uns beiden. Und da das gute Wetter dieses Jahr scheinbar nördlich der …

Bob Dylan zu Besuch
Hier sind ein paar Bilder vom Wochenende, an dem uns Cici Hodenmaier, a.k.a. Bob Dylan besucht hat... Two for the price of one and a world premiere: JSOVT(MB) and CSOVT(MS) in a single shot. When Bob Dylan visited us recently here in Karlsruhe, I finally had the chance to combine the two “sitting on” series, …
Pictures from Pisa
Damals im Februar war’s, glaube ich. Da durfte ich für zwei Tage nach Pisa zu einem Meeting über eins der verschiedenen Projekte, die bei uns an der Uni so laufen. Gastgeber war die Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, der Lehrstuhl von Enrico Forestieri, dem Meister der Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeiten in der Optik. Vom Forestieri hab’ ich zwar nix gesehen, …
Impressionen von Strasbourg
Hier ein paar Bilder von einem Wochenendausflug nach Strasbourg... One of the ornaments outside the entrance to the Cathedral of Strasbourg, France. We went there for a day trip recently, and I have to admit it’s a nice place. Unfortunately, everyone there seems to speak the wrong language (unless you go into any shop where …
Southwestern USA panoramas
I spent pretty much every spare minute of the last 8 days finishing a photo book of our 2008 trip through the southwestern United States. That included choosing the photos, some adjustments, pano-stitching where necessary, and layout of the book. During that work I noticed that I haven’t posted many panoramas from that trip (or photos …
Vienniese subways
This is what the subway in Vienna looks like around 5:30 (am) on a Sunday. When Joe and I had walked around town the afternoon before, everything was terribly crowded and you couldn’t really enjoy (or photograph) a lot of the things that make Vienna great. Joe had arrived by night train in Vienna the …
Austria Center Vienna
This was the venue for this year’s ECOC conference and the place I spent most of my time in the week in Vienna. It’s quite huge and modern, but somehow the organizers (again) managed to put the most interesting (and most attended) sessions into the smallest rooms. At least in Berlin they had a live …
Karlskirche
This is the Karlskirche (Church of St. Charles Borromeo) in Vienna. I found it during a short trip into the town after the sessions at the conference were finished for that day. I kinda ran into it by accident, barely seeing the tops of the towers as I crossed the Karlsplatz on my way to …
Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna (panorama)
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is one of the two very impressive museum buildings opposing each other on the Maria-Theresien-Platz in Vienna. When I first got into the hotel in Vienna on the Saturday afternoon before the conference began, (Zappel-)Joe was already waiting for me – he had taken the night train an had been hanging around …
yet more wedding pictures
Here is the final batch of shots from the wedding of Mirjam and Jochen... No, it’s not what it (probably) looks like - Julia’s merely counting the layers of the wedding dress... =) If I remember correctly, there were seven of them. I’m not catholic, so I wouldn’t know the dress code for the acolytes at …
