Siegfried Hansen featured in fotocommunity plus magazine
Fellow Seconds2Real photographer Siegfried Hansen is featured in the current issue of fotocommunity plus magazine. Congrats Siegfried!
this is not Budapest
No, this is not Budapest, it’s my hometown Berlin. I missed the annual seconds2real meetup in Budapest. The plan was to meet with my friends in Budapest last weekend. Unfortunately, because of the volcanic ash clouds over europe, Berlin airport was closed just a couple of hours before my plane was supposed to take off.
I really was disappointed when i found out that there’s no way to make it to the meeting. All my stuff was packed, i had the prints ready that i wanted to show to the others, and last but not least, i was really keen on shooting in the streets of Budapest. However, it should not be. Instead i spent one and half day taking pictures in Berlin (see below). Hopefully there will be another seconds2real meetup this year, maybe in autumn.
upcoming book “Street Photography Now”
via 2point8
Thames & Hudson book designer Johanna Neurath posted a picture last week of a proof of their new title “Street Photography Now”, by Sophie Howard and Stephen McLaren, which will arrive later this year. This book will also feature Seconds2Real photographer Siegfried Hansen which is well deserved.
Portraits of some Seconds2Real members
I met fellow Seconds2Real photographers Ronny Künniger, Elisabeth Schuh, Siegfried Hansen and Kay von Aspern in Berlin recently and did some spontaneous portraits. All images are done with my Plaubel Makina 67 (Tri-X@400/XTOL).

Kay von Aspern
I received a print of this image by fellow Vienna-based street photographer Kay von Aspern today. I will put it on my wall as soon as i found a decent frame. Besides his website you can find more of his work on his flickr stream or in the recent issue of austrian magazine Datum.
Siegfried Hansen
A picture i took of famous Hamburg-based Street Photographer Siegfried Hansen while he was in Berlin for a couple of days. If you don’t already know him check out his flickr stream.
