I have wanted to explore the photographic opportunities of the German Rockwool HQ in Gladbeck, Germany, for a long time. Once again, the images I found en passant proved to be more interesting than those I set out to photograph in the first place.
Ruhr Area
After a long hiatus I returned to what once was one of my favourite photo locations, the former steel mill that now is the Landschaftspark Duisburg Nord. To keep things fresh, I decided to go there at a time of day I have never been there before: The early morning hours of dawn.
Returning home from an errand in the already dark evening, I noticed a red light in the corner of my eye. It was an illuminated shaft tower. I just had to photograph it.
Not in the mood to seek out new locations and risk spending hours not finding anything? Then revisit places you have already photographed!
In this post, I share 15 new photographs I took on my first outing to the Hammer & Chisel coal mine. So join me in exploring a new location photographically.
A visit at the Rheinpreußen slag heap gives me 8 new photographs, but also an unexpected retrospective and new motivation for the future.
When I wanted to take a shot about social distancing, I ran into a problem: These people were everything but socially distanced.
We don’t get much snow around here in Germany’s Ruhr Area. And if we do, then we don’t get much, and it won’t stay long. So, when snow and ice hit us hard, I knew I had to be quick to get some photos.
