A South Korean cactus

Image
Andong, South Korea, 20 June 2026 This is "my" first South Korean cactus. In fact, there were three on display (the other two were orange) yet I was in a hurry (or so I thought) when I passed them by.  However, about 500 meters past I returned and took some photos. It had been a good decision for when I returned around thirty  minutes later, the shop had closed and the cactus were nowhere  to be seen.

Nature's ways

Image
Andong, South Korea, 20 June 2026 I guess what prompted me to take this picture was that when I looked at it I felt intrigued by nature's ways. ,I'm completely fascinated by this chaos  –  which no artist could ever  have created  –  and which strikes me as utterly aesthetic.

In front of a flowershop

Image
Andong, South Korea, 20 June 2026 When crossing the street, I saw this flower in front of a flowershop, approached it, took the photo while not really feeling at ease for I remembered that I once photographed various flowers outside a flowershop in Trieste which prompted the owner to furiously shout at me that the flowers had to be bought and were not there  to be photographed.

Forms of Nature

Image
Santa Cruz do Sul, 9 December 2021 How these patterns form is beyond me. The larger question of course is: What makes nature tick the way it does? No question that could better illustrate how little we know.

Buildings in Hiroshima

Image
Hiroshima, 11 October 2025 The limitations of my mobile phone camera become especially apparent when I want to capture more than just a detail. Differently put, I'm well aware that this pic paints a distorted version of what had been in front of the lens, it however shows pretty well, I think, my attempt to compose something pleasing the eye.

Andong, South Korea, 20 June 2026 I'm very much taken by Korean architecture, even the most unremarkable aspects intrigue me  – as I'm sure the above picture demonstrates.

The artist called nature

Image
  Andong, South Korea, 20 June 2026 Contemplating the various forms in which nature presents itself is truly awesome. The work of literally  every artist pales against it.
