  • I was walking by a gallery in the center of Berlin, when this scene caught my attention. So I pressed my camera against the window, optimised the composition and took the picture. A few seconds later, the woman stood up. I am happy that I was fast enough, because I like the juxtaposition of the scene.

  • Taking a break in the government district of Berlin, I noticed a group of segway-drivers approaching a building with kind of a grid in the facade. I hurried up and tried to capture the scene. The fact that the segway-drivers left out one space which the man on the stairs exactly filled in - pure luck. You have to try in order to have the chance to be lucky.
