Großer Zug

We met through a common friend. Since I was in the middle of a trip, the process of long chats and sharing intimacies that usually precedes the photos couldn’t take place. But from the little we talked, it was clear how passionate he is about sailing. He had a boat and knew of fine places just outside berlin where we could try some photos, so we set off one afternoon for a boat ride. While we waited for the day to end, I made a few photos. Here are some.

A big thank you to Philipp for lending the car and my friend Daniel for keeping me company.

Nos encontramos através de um amigo comum. Já que eu estava no meio de uma viagem, o processo de longas conversas e compartilhamento de intimidades que normalmente precede as fotos não poderia ser feito. Mas, do pouco que conversamos, ficou claro o quanto ele era apaixonado por navegar. Ele tinha um barco e conhecia lugares legais logo na saída de Berlim onde a gente poderia tentar umas fotos, então fomos numa tarde pra um passeio de barco. Enquanto a gente esperava o dia acabar, eu fiz umas fotos. Aqui estão algumas.

Um muito obrigado a Philipp por emprestar o carro, e ao meu amigo Daniel, pela companhia.

See? No murder!… 😀
Tá vendo? Sem assassinato!… 😀

Submission

An experiment. Both a quick test for a photo idea to be executed some time in the future, and a test of placing oneself in an uncomfortable position, going against one’s basic instincts.

Um experimento. Tanto um teste rápido pra uma idéia a ser executada no futuro, quanto um teste de se colocar numa posição desconfortável, indo contra os próprios instintos.

Respondeat Superior

Chris has been willing to participate in the project for a while. Since I haven’t been to his city in almost 20 years, and he wouldn’t come to my part of the world, apparently it would have to wait. Until the day we took advantage of his pleasure in following orders and I dared him to make a self pic and send as a reader contribution.
Here’s what he did for us.

Chris queria participar do projeto faz um tempo. Como eu não vou na cidade dele há quase vinte anos, e ele não viria pros meus lados, aparentemente a coisa teria que esperar. Até o dia em que nos aproveitamos do gosto dele em seguir ordens e eu o desafiei a fazer um auto-retrato e enviar como contribuição do leitor.
Aqui está o que ele fez pra gente.

Johnny (and The Cat)

Here are some other pics from the night out with Johnny (who couldn´t stand still, right John?) , in Heygate. Halfway into the pics, a cat decided to join the session and followed us up to the rest of the night, after we went on to photograph some buildings. Since the cat had no previous experience in photo sessions, it wouldn´t stand still too. Or maybe it was just trying to show in that ghostly fashion. I like it, anyway. Thank you John. Thank you too, kitty.

Rhiz’hommes

A while ago, when I made a picture of a mirror in a beach, reflecting a mountain and some city lights, I took the opportunity and the location to try a shot for my buddy rhiz’hommes´ project on what he calls Dialogic Selfportraits. After a long wait, he´s finally worked on the picture I sent him.
