The Rains Are Gonna Come

Well I kept thinking about what the weatherman said
and if the voices of the living can be heard by the dead
Well the day is gonna come
When we find out and in some kinda way
I take a little comfort from that (now & then)

Cause people often talk about being scared of change
but for me I'm more afraid of things staying the same
Cause the game is never won
by standing in any one place for too long

New Project: Sneak Peek

I recently visited a small town called Cortes in the east of Spain, about one hour from Valencia's city centre. When I heard that this place was located in a valley between two mountains, had a population that rose to one thousand in the summer months and had an average age of... well I'm not sure. But old, old enough for me to imagine that this place could possibly be some sort of timeless existence where everybody and everything remained unspoiled from life's more tarnishing qualities.


Anyway, here is a sample of what the projects will be like. I wanted to do a short reportage on the people living in Cortes and the peacefulness of their day to day lives.

Timeless Berlin

Just posting a link to my Timeless Berlin project on my website. It consists of 35 images shot in Berlin the past two years. Every image is b&w. My intention is to have a collection of images that ignore the fact that they were taken in modern times. I want the viewer to experience and feel as if they could have been taken anytime over the last 40-50 years.

Sipping On The Sweet Nectars Of Your Memories

Last night I ran into my old life
still waiting for someone at the station
someone who never made it into my new life
so I called up Lisa
'cause she's my only friend
"Lisa I don't know anymore,
every heartbeat needs a reason"

She said
"That's when the feeling hits
so just lick your lips
can you smell the spring time in the breeze
you gotta start sipping on the sweet nectars
of your memories"

When you long for something that you once had but then realise that you never lost it, just that it is now in an unfamiliar form and place and existence...

New Website

Quite recently I started a new website to show projects that I have completed and to advertise my work as a wedding, event and fashion photographer here in Berlin. Please share the link and tell friends about me.

Sometimes I Wonder

Cause in a world full of wonders
To let it openly wonder
When there's still a little wonder left in you

Jamie Lidell

I'm up in the woods. I'm down on my mind. I'm building a sill to slow down the time

See The Light, See The Light

Caught a long wind

a long life when

I got to know the sky

but it didn't know me

got to see the light

the light on top of the sea

be the burn, be the key

and now the current tells

what the wave withheld

and the light inside

where the light will lie

where will you go?

Betsy

At the department of forgotten songs
There is a crying girl
She's lonely
She's just sixteen
Or forty-five
She's been abandoned for almost all her life
She can remember the boy who kissed her
But it was meant for her evil B-side sister

Out Of Darkness, Toward The Light

Where Do We Go Now But Nowhere?

I'll Disappear For You

If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your man
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man

And to him I said
You can leave your eyes at the horizon's dead door
'Cause you won't need them anymore

Apollo

All my life, I’ve felt as though
I'm inside a beautiful memory
Replaying with the sound turned down low

Long-life, show your face
Slow-heart, curb your taste
Smoke me out of my hiding place
Long-life, state your case

What in the world are we waiting for
Building glowing cities along the shore
Where the wind batters in
Baiting my kin like a matador

So much value, placed upon
What lies just beyond our plans
Waving my handkerchief
Running along, till the end of the sand

Long-life, speak your name
I'm so tired of the guessing game
But, something is moving
Just out of frame
Slow-heart, brace and aim
