Fascination
After a long day at the yearly festival on the 5th of May, Liberation Day, with lots of music, I wanted to leave but suddenly realised the potential of potraits of people in the Ferris Wheel. It is a great option for the lazy photographer, although the movement and constantly changing light made timing difficult. The whole series for me represents a kind of microcosm of human relations and emotions. I like this one in particular because of the light and the clear fascination of the girl with the giant wheel. It seems the mother (I presume) genuinely wants to follow her daughter in that fascination, but of course as a grown up she is not able anymore to clear her mind completely of all rational consciousness and be fully engulfed by fantasy and fascination. But at least she tries!

preparing for halloween
After some interesting strolling through outskirts of Leipzig and riding around the city by tram I returned to the busy square on the eastern side of the old town, with the Opera, the Gewandhaus and main tram interchange. Dusk fell and the square in front of the Opera began to fill with youngsters preparing for halloween. They had carefully dressed up for this night. They would not tell precisely whether they would put up a show later that night, but were very willing to pose. In some ways it even seemed to me they were (semi-)professional actors, because they were so good at putting up faces and posing.
