Internet City at night in Dubai; Emirates

Internet City in Dubai | Emirates

The “Internet City” is something of a town-district in Dubai. It is here that some 1,600 companies have their offices in a rather small space.

Bratislava Castle (Bratislavský hrad); Slovakia

Bratislava Castle | Slovakia

Bratislava Castle (Bratislavský hrad) in Slovakia was like a favourite candy for Nico to photograph, whose wrapper is not so easy to open. If you

Where to see the laser show in Singapore from?

Laser show in Singapore

Many ask “where is the best place to see a laser show in Singapore?”. We found one solution to this: rent an Airbnb overlooking Marina

Ponte Vecchio by night in Florence, Italy

Ponte Vecchio in Florence | Italy

Florence’s Ponte Vecchio or “Old Bridge” was probably one of the first bridges spanning the Arno River. Its history is therefore not straightforward. It was

The Fanar Mosque in Doha | Qatar

That “spiral” tower in the photo is the “Fanar” mosque, which is part of the Al-Fanar Islamic Cultural Centre in Doha. It is probably one

A panorama view of Acropolis in Athens with Parthenon Temple.

Acropolis of Athens – panorama view with Parthenon Temple | Athens, Greece

The Acropolis view was the first one which greet us in Athens. This hill with remains of Parthenon temple is visible from almost every point of the city. The Acropolis of Athens is situated on a rock that rises around 150m above sea level. If you’ve been to the capital of Greece, you know how stunning it is to see it from anywhere, day and night.

Rynek Market Square and City Hall in Wroclaw, Poland at night

Sounds of Wroclaw | Poland

Wrocław has one of the biggest market squares in Europe and its city hall is the biggest one in Poland. Late at night the city wraps itself in silence and is only disturbed now and again by the hushed voices of people returning home from a night out. I wanted to capture the intriguing atmosphere of this place, but also show as much as possible of this very beautiful market square painted in the crisp autumn light at night.

Basilica–Cathedral of Our Lady of the Pillar in Zaragoza

Postcard from Zaragoza | Spain

Zaragoza turned out to be the positive surprise of our trip to Spain. Many spacious squares, ideal conditions for photography and very interesting architecture. Moreover, the buildings were illuminated throughout all night and long in the morning, while tourists were nowhere to be found at this time. An absolute Dream!

Bode-Museum in Berlin in Black and White

Bode-Museum | Black and White with Colour

The Bode Museum on the Museum Island in Berlin is in my opinion one of the most beautiful buildings in the city. Even though the Museum Island in Berlin was heavily affected by the war, the Bode Museum withstood it relatively good. Here you go with a black/white/orange version of my photo from the Bode-Museum in Berlin.

Semperoper Opera House in Dresden exterior

Semperoper | Dresden, Germany

The Semperoper is probably the most famous opera house in Germany. The reason however, is quite different as one might expect: The Radeberger Group – Germany’s largest brewery group – uses the Opera House for many years in the background of the advertisements for the Radeberger beer. Even if I try to resist any advertising as much as possible, I must admit that it immediately came to my mind as I stood there.

Berlin City West Kurfürstendamm and KaDeWe

City West | Berlin, Germany

If you amble along the Kurfürstendamm or the Tauentzienstraße you can occasionally get a feel for how Berlin must have looked in its Golden 20s. Be it the ladies at the sides of the street, marvelling at handbags that can cost much more than 1,000 euros. Be it the gourmet who goes to the KaDeWe, the glamorous “Department Store of the West” to purchase an exclusive wine for his collection.
