Woodstock – A World in Color It was August 1969. I was almost ten years old, spending the last days of my summer vacation at my grandparents’ house. As always, we had our little rituals. One of them was watching the evening news together on German television. Sitting there before bedtime, a large glass of apple spritzer in my hand, I felt grown-up because I was allowed to stay up and watch the news. Little did I know that, in those few moments, something would happen that would stay with me for the rest of my life. The report from America lasted less than a minute. It was broadcast in black and white and showed hundreds of thousands of young people gathered in a muddy field, dancing, singing and celebrating music together. They looked different. They dressed differently. They seemed to live by different rules. The report, as was typical of the rather conservative German television of the time, focused on the negative: drugs, sex and scandal. My grandparents were horrified by these

Another project I am currently working on is: Valkyries and Shieldmaidens They came from a world where the wind swept across endless plains, where mist lingered among the mountains, and where the sky seemed to speak of storm and fire.

Not because they sought battle, but because they were willing to stand for what they believed in. Perhaps this is why Valkyries and Shieldmaidens continue to fascinate us to this day. They remind us that strength does not mean being without fear. Strength

„Echoes of Wuthering Heights and Highlands“ ...a new Project "For me, photography is more than capturing a moment. It is a way of making inner visions visible." Wuthering Heights is far more than a novel to me. It is an atmosphere—a landscape of emotion, a place where memory and imagination meet, and a symbol of nature in its most untamed form. This photographic project is inspired by the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands and the timeless spirit of Emily Brontë's masterpiece. Using my own photographs as the foundation, I create cinematic visual worlds through Photoshop and other forms of digital image editing. Reality and imagination merge into a distinctive visual language that extends beyond the boundaries of traditional photography. My intention is not to illustrate the novel or recreate its scenes. Instead, I seek to capture its emotional essence: solitude and longing, freedom and resilience, and the overwhelming presence of wind, rain, and endless moorland. Each image is an
