I love this photographing shopping center because it is so architecturally interesting. I plan to return often to snap more photographs to share with you.

You can see the pencil sketch on the artwork on the right side. I wish I could have returned later to photograph the finished piece.
More artworks, drawn in chalk on the floor of the Frankfurt subway station in Hauptwache (more photographs of these works in the days to follow, same time, same place).

New Year's Eve day was so misty that I could barely see out of the window of my flat, so I grabbed my cameras and went to a nearby farmer's field to photograph trees. Unfortunately, the fog was thicker 40 meters above the ground, so the trees did not appear to be as magical as I had hoped. In this image, I…

This afternoon, my spouse and I investigated the Frankfurter Weihnachtsmarkt (Frankfurt Christmas Market) in Römerberg and Paulsplatz in downtown Frankfurt. It was five degrees below zero celsius (it felt a lot colder), and it was snowing vigorously -- all of which added to the festive atmosphere. We purchased a variety of flavors of "licorice" ropes -- including…

Are you getting bored of looking at photographs of Frankfurt yet? Well, if so, you would have appreciated this morning's image because the snowclouds were so thick that the city had completely disappeared. I tried to get a picture of that for you, but realized that you would not be able to distinguish that photograph from one taken of…

Whilst coming home from IKEA, where my spouse and I finally made a decision on how to design our kitchen, I photographed this lovely scene. In the distance is the smokestack tower that is located near to, and east of, my flat.
