CEREMONY IN THE FRONT YARD
Chanting, drumming and praying I could follow this little ceremony with my camera for about 5 minutes. Still wondering what I saw I will start asking people, showing around the photo, what I saw. Have a good start in the day.
MATHIAS BOTHOR | BRETAGNE
Text from gosee.de: Following South Africa’s Coasts, this winter a new picture book, with an added calendar, takes us on a journey through breathtaking natural landscapes. This time round we are taken to Brittany and its steep coasts, which the French refer to as “land by the sea”. Mathias BOTHOR c/o GUNDA PATZKE spent months travelling across this wind and sea beaten land for Mare magazine. He met up with the headstrong locals and captured a highly unique image of the West French region.
From painterly houses in dreamy villages, to weather hardy fishermen on their boats – the photographer brings us closer to the phenomenal feeling of Brittany: a sense of nostalgia.
ADDED NEW PHOTOGRAPHY LINKS
For my world travel I preferred to be alone here on my blog and actually used it as my diary. Since a couple of months though I think about it more and more to make it less about myself again. I will still continue to write about my thoughts and projects, in case I have some. hehe. Nevertheless, I would like to turn the blog entries more in direction of photography, illustration, movies, lets say art in general again. Not only my stuff should be the main target here anymore. Other portfolios, exhibitions, events and so on will be more present in future.
I started already to work on it and added a couple of new photographers I like. H ave a look at there work if you like. alessandra sanguinetti, morfi jimenez mercado, olivier pin-fat or sean gallagher. Especially I’d recommend to have a look at is tim simmons, philipp ebeling and pieter hugo.
I’VE GOT ONLY THREE MORE YEARS TO LIVE.
Ooooops. Why didn’t tell me anybody earlier? I guess my ambitious goal to speak 5 languages until the age of 35 will not become true. What a pitty. The first sentence is the most important I guess. “Its not just California”. At least its California that gets hit first, so Hollywood can’t produce those Emmerich-destroys-the-world-monster-movies anymore. What a blessing.
