"Sugar and spice And everything nice, That's what little girls are made of." Especially these two little ladies here! I had a shooting for a kids fashion designer a few weeks ago (one of the last summer weekends in September, actually) and as you can see the little models had fun.

Time Travel

IMG_5483-sanssouci

During my trip to Berlin I also visited Sanssouci Park in the nearby city Potsdam with its numerous castles of Prussian kings. If you are interested in European history I strongly recommend to visit the "Friederisiko" exhibition in the Neues Palais (where I spent four hours, unfortunately no cameras wehere allowed inside the exhibition but it is well worth a ...

IMG_5109-rainynyc-NYC

I almost can't believe that I posted a similar article almost one year ago! I was back in NYC the week before the last for 8 days and even the second time was still overwhelming. Still that city is loud, huge and beautiful. And truly  magical! Although we visited some of the "hot spots" we did not do the classical tourists ...

Tungsten Mine

IMG_4048_kitzbuehel

We had a three days company outing this week and went to Austria. On Thursday we visited a huge tungsten mine which was quite an impressive experience. I had never visited an underground mine before and hadn't imagined how deep this actually goes below ground! (Several hundred meters!) It was warm and noisy and dusty and dark and kinda spooky ...
