Impressions from Frankfurt
The big project with pictures of THE POWER OF THE ELEMENTS brought me to Frankfurt again. I was commissioned to photograph the office space designed with my images. These images are a work in progress and I will present a selection on the blog later. During the breaks, I went hunting with my camera in Frankfurt's high-rise district and looked for exciting angles of the impressive skyscrapers. This resulted in a small series of extremely edited photos in black and white.
I looked at the skyscrapers with mixed feelings. For me they are a symbol of the fact that the human spirit always strives higher and so much good can come about. But what if this spirit releases itself from all responsibility and, as in the legend of Icarus, swings higher and higher unchecked and without any moral obligation? Will the crash come at some point? But perhaps these are all far too philosophical thoughts and one should simply enjoy this spectacle of lines, shapes and surface structures:
I took the pictures with the Leica Q2 and the Leica S3.
