My photographic focus is on maritime motifs, which are mostly digitally processed and often have an abstract, painterly appearance. The focus is on port impressions, photographs of the sea, beaches, mud flats, dikes and detailed photographs of maritime shapes and structures.

Mein fotografischer Fokus liegt auf maritimen Motiven, die zumeist digital bearbeitet werden und oft eine abstrakte, malerische Anmutung haben. Schwerpunkte sind Hafenimpressionen, Aufnahmen am Meer, Strand, Watt, Deich und Detailaufnahmen von maritimen Formen und Strukturen.

Kreatives Composing mit Hafenkränen im Hamburger Hafen, Überlagerung von Farbschichten, malerischer Look.....Creative composing with harbor cranes in the port of Hamburg, superimposition of layers of paint, painterly look

The picture is a mosaic-like composition of various container terminals in the port of Hamburg. The individual areas of the image are colour-coordinated harmoniously with one another. A slight blurring and softening effect was chosen to give the image a lighter, less technically accurate character. The red area in the lower left third of the image ensures a harmonious image structure. The aim was to create an image with a high degree of abstraction.....Das Bild ist eine mosaikartige Komposition verschiedener Containerterminals im Hamburger Hafen. Die einzelnen Bildbereiche sind farblich harmonisch aufeinander abgestimmt. Ein leichter Verwischungs- und Weichmachereffekt wurde gewählt, um dem Bild einen leichteren, weniger technisch akkuraten Charakter zu geben. Die rote Fläche im unteren, linken Bilddrittel sorgt für einen harmonischen Bildaufbau. Ziel war es, ein Bild mit hohem Abstraktionsgrad zu schaffen.

The digitally processed photo shows a sunset in the Wadden Sea. The painterly, minimalistic character of the image is created by the blurring of the mudflats and sky, by adjusting the colors and by the slight high-key effect. The vignette also contributes to this. The person with outstretched arms emphasizes the horizontal geometry of the picture.

Digitally processed photo of the bow of a museum lightship with water reflection. The picture was created by photomontage with different motif, texture and color levels. The picture has an abstract, painterly look...Ideal for creative interior design, wall decoration, murals and wall design as a canvas picture, acrylic picture, aluminum Dibond, poster, print with frame...

This is an abstract collage in 4 to 3 format with linear stakes in the harbour basin as the main motif. I have overlaid selected texture and colour layers using different blending modes, adjusted opacity, as well as masking techniques. The work's colourfulness and clear structure make it an invigorating element in any interior, especially where maritime character is desired. I live on the North Sea coast, so my focus on maritime motifs is obvious. My aim in general - as in this work of art - is to create pictorial compositions that have a painterly, abstract feel - beyond realistic depictions.

The picture describes a lonely mudflat walker on the North Frisian coast in autumn. The black and white editing was done with strong contrasts to create a dramatic mood appropriate to the weather.

Artistic, digital processing of a photo of two people in the mudflats on the North Sea coast. The slightly horizontally blurred background gives the picture a minimalist character, and the focus is on the two people. The harmonious colors have been slightly adjusted.
