During these long winter months where gray dominates, everyone finds their own way to keep their spirits up! Personally, this year, I’ve immersed myself in colors and visually delved into all my photographic archives…. It works! Result: a creative bubbling and the birth of the Detroit Series! To each their own color, today: Yellow!

January 23, 2014, Bloomfield Hills in the Detroit area. An overnight snowstorm has transformed the surroundings. I normally live by a lake, but today, it’s impossible to imagine its outline. The weather forecast predicts -20°C. Decidedly, I’m going out! I need to see this up close… The cold is gripping, intrusive from the first breaths…

Far from Manhattan and the banks of the Hudson, since 2017 I’ve settled my bags in Mainhattan, in the city of Frankfurt. New country, new culture, but still beautiful skylines! December 29, 2020, despite temperatures close to 0°C, I take advantage of the lockdown to play with my new lens in a sleepy yet sparkling

There are places that leave a lasting impression on us, imprinting themselves in our memories for a lifetime, and that we revisit in our thoughts whenever we please. The Playa de Ancon in Trinidad on the island of Cuba is one of those places. It symbolizes for me exoticism, a distant land where it would

Those who know me a little know that nature is one of my refuges. When I’m out for a walk, I leave my worries behind and indulge in observing Mother Nature, even indulging in contemplation. The Taunus mountains, west of Frankfurt, have become my new playground since 2017. I’m spoiled! Photo: Alt König, 2021

Out with the black and white life! Out with the 50 shades of gray! I demand, with all my might, an explosion of colors and scents! Give me the tender green of a young shoot, the gentle caress of a sunbeam, the chirping of a bird, give me spring! Photo: My Garden, May 2020

Snow, black ice, polar cold, -10°C, -20°C, all weapons of mass destruction for life… And yet, life fights, resists, perseveres! Homage to this American Robin and all its fellows who populated my garden in Michigan… even in very cold weather. So fragile and yet so strong… Photo: Michigan, 2014

A GREAT need for escape! That’s what I’m craving today… the crowds, the hustle and bustle, a life at 100 kilometers per hour… We always desire what we don’t have, it’s well known! So let’s go! Let’s hop into that yellow cab or that limousine heading to NY and let’s travel in thought for the

URBEX, urban exploration, was part of my first photographic adventures. Detroit was our playground. With my friends from the 5-D3 collective, we explored numerous ruins: houses, schools, hospitals, fire stations… I remember the excitement of stepping into these abandoned places, the fear of getting hurt or encountering trouble, but also the emotion I felt seeing

I’m one of those impatient souls who eagerly await any sign of nature’s renewal. A sunbeam, a bud, they all help me glimpse the beautiful days ahead and their delights. Hope is reborn at the end of my lens… Photo: Frankfurt, March 2020
