New Aerial Views Project: Solar Power Plants in the US






Sustainable Energy Systems - Solar power plants in the US. Renewable energy generation through solar power.
Heliostat mirrors focus sunlight on receivers located on centralized solar power towers. The receivers generate steam to drive specially adapted steam turbines.
Visually interesting to me is the relationship between the technical designs of the power plants and the surrounding desert landscape - which sometimes reminded me on scenes on alien planets out of science fiction movies.
Renewable and sustainable energy production is a step forward to prevent global warming and climate change.

Presentation at the FOODSCAPE Seminar of the School of Architecture and Design, Ascoli Piceno in Italy


I have been invited to hold a presentation at the FOODSCAPE Seminar of the School of Architecture and Design, Ascoli Piceno in Italy. The seminar is about food and its crucial role for the economy and for the transformation of the territory, with a multidisciplinary approach sensitive to the processes of food production, distribution and consumption.
During my speech on 18 May 2018 I will show images of series from my Aerial Views Project which display this transformation of territory in the foodindustry.

New Project: „ABSTRACT FLOWS“



The series of images on which I have worked for the last 
several months, is on one hand something completely different compared to my Aerial Views Project. On the other hand it is in a way similar, because also here I was interested in finding interesting structures and shapes, as in my Aerial Photography.

Publication in „GRANTA - The Magazine for new writing“



Image „AV_Fishfarms_003“ of my Fishfarm Series is published in the wonderful literature magazine „GRANTA - The Magazine for new writing“, by Granta Publications, London. 
The photo illustrates a short story called „Issue“ of irish author Cormac James. I think the image fits exactly to the special attitude of this modern fiction story.
