Dear friend,
after a week of relaxing time spent in Germany and enjoying some snow and quiet time in mountains I am back, for few days. There is a bunch of new things I like to tell you about, but for this Sunday evening I like to share with you four images I have made in short time last week. Most of the time I was just enjoying time with family, so there was no much left for any photography.

I have selected these four images as expression of my mood in this holiday week. We really enjoy it and I needed to slow down a tempo of last days. Especially when I think what is in front of me. I am traveling to Cleveland at the end of next week and week after that I am moving to Turkey. I can imagine that this will be very demanding time.

But for now here is the four images to remind me the quiet time we had.

    Hi Richo,

    very nice pic, I like the yellow colour and the effects in the snow.
    Well, have a nice trip to Cleveland and if you can … make also some nice picture.
    After that are you going to Turkey for work or are you going to live there, I am a bit confuse if you say moving.

    Take care,
    *B*

    “Moving”?  Moving to Turkey?!  Turkey?!  Moving to Turkey?!  Wow!  That is quite the big change in your future there, Richard!  Wow!  Wow – I just keep saying that!  What a very different change for you and your family … is this just short term for you, or long term for the whole family?  Quite the big news!  I look forward to hearing from you on it all.

    As for your photos here, I like them.  The yellow threw me off initially, but like it, it gives it a bit of surrealism… also, I find them to evoke sensuality, very sensual, especially the second and third, the shape and contours, puts me into mind of the female form… but then, that may just be me, and I apologize to others who may now see the images very differently than how they perceived them.

    I use orange and ND filter when shooting against sun and high bright snow to allow aperture 1.4 to get shallow depth of sharpness. I love to hear what you feel seen in my pictures.
