This picture is dedicated to my favourite painter Georgia O’Keeffe, who’s art was surely heavily influenced by photography, being the wife of Alfred Stieglitz. I found the effect reversed in me, as I feel highly influenced by her paintings. Especially her take on flowers egged me on to explore macro photography.

I had a hard time choosing a category. It could be fine art as well as abstract, but the source was a stairwell, so I went for city & architecture. The shot was taken in one of the houses at the Mediapark in Cologne.

2 male ibex seen during sunrise at the grossglockner mountains, austria. we went up to over 2500 meters to watch these animals and even in august we had snow and temperatures around 0° C. But it was well worth it to see these creatures roaming free in their rocky habitat.
