Week 12 – …. well spotted big man!
by 53weeks
This blog writing thing seems to be contagious. Last year the whole family took great pleasure in finding obscure benches (or banks) and this years subject is proving to be a similar challenge. So this week’s entry is dedicated to the “big man” for his excellent suggestion. Happy Easter!

Week 11 – Good breeding…. or how I miss good manners!
by 53weeks
I don’t think I’ve had a rant on my blog for a long while, so here goes. I managed to get some quality time with the camera at the weekend and was just on the way home when I came across this path. The sky was vivid, the sun was shining, the trees bare and the path led up to the horizon, a perfect mixture for a shot with a polarising filter. I had just parked the car when I […]

Week 9 – Tiefer See
by 53weeks
That’s the great thing about photography, you’re always learning new things from other people and it never gets boring! This was taken on an evening stroll around Potsdam. I’m just starting to get the feel of the combination of 50mm 1.4 on a full frame camera. I think I like it!

Week 1 – Belvedere Palace
by 53weeks
Well here we go again, another 53 weeks lie ahead of us. If anything this next period will be more difficult than the first, if only because doing something again is often more difficult than setting out to do something the first time. They say you should start as you mean to go on, so at the last minute on the Sunday afternoon (before the light faded), I walked up to the Belvedere Palace to shoot this. I do hope […]

Week 36 – Indian Summer or Altweibersommer
by 53weeks
As autumn rapidly approaches, every warm sunny day is welcome. This was shot from the Nikolaikirche overlooking the old Town Hall to the high-rise blocks of flats in the distant Babelsberg Zentrum Ost. Edit: Thanks Pete for correcting me! I always thought the other areas were sub-suburbs of Babelsberg. f/16 1/40 ISO 200 @ 30mm

Week 35 – The Mother-in-Law
by 53weeks
This is my mother-in-law. Contrary to popular perceptions they’re not all battleaxes. f/4 1/4000 ISO 200 @30mm EDIT: I thought I would give you a “making of shot” of this week’s image. It’s the first time that I have actually appeared in my own blog.

Week 34 – Uncle Tom
by 53weeks
This is Tom, he is the honorary uncle to my children and the best friend a man could have. For those in doubt the bench (bank or whatever you want to call it) is in the background. f/5.6 1/200 ISO 200 @85mm

Week 33 – The first day of school
by 53weeks
Here in Germany they have a wonderful tradition for the first school day. The children have to go into school on a Saturday where they are able to meet their new school mates and receive a “Schultüte” (translates as “First-Day-of School-cornet” apparently). The “Schultüte” is normally filled with stationary and more importantly lots of sweets. This was Johanna’s big day, although I fear that she had to share some of her goodies with her mother. f/6.3 1/200 ISO 400 @30mm

Week 31 – Polperro and Stonehenge
by 53weeks
These are the last two taken on holiday. The first one shows the lovely fishing village of Polperro which was just down the road from Looe (Cornwall) where we spent the second week of our England and Wales round-trip.

Week 29 – Coming Home
by 53weeks
Some of you might have guessed that the project has not died, moreover everybody is entitled to a bit of a holiday sometime. After driving back through Germany and the Netherlands this was the view that greeted us on the Stena ferry taking us home. There will be more to come over the next few days to catch up. f/16 1/60 ISO 400 @17mm

Week 28 – Don’t you just love blondes…….
by 53weeks
and this one is a very special example…… meet the aptly named Bonny. She is a very obedient, patient and easy going girl, quite prepared to have her pictures taken in the rain sitting next to her favourite treat without complaint. A real low maintenance girl…….. f/4 1/80 ISO 100 @30mm

Week 27 – The Saale
by 53weeks
After a short weekend break in the south of the country, this week’s post is centred around the river Saale. As we have now reached halfway on the photographic journey through the year 2011, this week’s entry is interactive. All those entering the poll (see below) have the chance to become the lucky winner of a once in a lifetime prize. So here goes: The first two were taken directly on the banks of the Saale River in Hirschberg (Thuringia). […]

Week 26 – Kim Wilde and the Siblings
by 53weeks
The Economist was recently titled “The man who screwed an entire country” accompanied by a picture of Silvio Berlusconi. In Potsdam it isn’t a single man but more a political morass of people who were on the payroll of the regime before the fall of the wall. One of the latest victims has been the local public services company which hosts the annual music festival in Potsdam. This year’s roll call included Simple Minds, Robin Gibb and Kim Wilde. The […]

This week’s picture is a tribute to a great Frenchman, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry both an aviator and a children’s author. Second only to that man Eric in French history…..

Week 24 – Oma (Hamburg)
by 53weeks
This is Oma (Grandma) in the Stadtpark in the beautiful city of Hamburg. She says “the best years were my thirties”, My reply “unfortunately mine are all but gone!” “You’ve still got your forties to come!” That’s all very well but if the thirties were the best years, where do we go from here? They say the old thirties are the new fifties. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! P.S. she’ll be ninety-three this year so she ought to […]

Week 23 – Rainy Milano
by 53weeks
This is Uli, my colleague on a very wet day in Milan. We went from a glorious nearly 30°C in Berlin to a miserable 18°C and rain in Milan. Still I got to see the San Siro from the outside so all in all not bad for a day’s business trip. The first picture (above) is a crop of the second (below), as usual I couldn’t decide so I’m hedging my bets once again. Both (of course) f4 1/1250 ISO […]

Week 21 – Back to basics…..
by 53weeks
This was taken early in the morning whilst on my way to work on that “sit up and beg” style Dutch bike of mine that I have mentioned previously. The view is from the Havelstrasse across to the Hans Otto theatre in Potsdam. I’ve finally gone full frame, albeit analogue. This was shot with a Pentacon 50mm f1.8 (effectively a Meyer Oreston 50mm f1.8) lens on a Praktica MTL3 camera which were last produced around 1984. The MTL3 is completely […]

This is the avenue that runs between the Orangery and the Dragonhouse (Belvedere) in Sanssouci. I seem to have suffered a creative block this week, considering my L.O.F.T. it’s astonishing that I can be susceptible to such a thing. f10 1/125 ISO 100 @30mm

Week 19 – The Schleizer Triangle
by 53weeks
Schleiz’s claim to fame is one of the oldest “natural” race tracks in Germany. The first ever race took place on the 10th of June 1923, with the aim being to race as far as possible and as quickly as possible on five litres of fuel. The winner of the car race was Mr. Huldreich Heußer with a total distance of 87.3 km and an average of 41.4 km/h (which quite incidentally is similar to what I get out of […]

by 53weeks
It’s 21 years ago this Spring since I sat my A-levels and these ladies 20 years my junior will be studying hard as I write to make sure they get the grade for Uni. I certainly don’t envy them in the slightest. Without wanting to sound like the pompous “old git” that I really am, I’d like to say to them “make the most of it all and above all enjoy it!”, I know I did (and do). The picture […]

Aren’t I a lucky boy? I don’t just get to partake in a business trip to Hong Kong, but I also get to invest in a brand new razor-sharp Sigma 30mm 1.4 whilst I’m there. This was shot from pier 9, Central district, Hong Kong Island looking across to Kowloon where the MS Queen Elizabeth was moored. I did try to persuade quite a number of people to let me take their picture on a bank, but they were not […]

by 53weeks
It’s nearly twenty years ago since I first heard this song with a very good friend of mine travelling to his home in a small German town on the Polish border. Being six months into my year abroad at the time, it reminded me very much of my own home in the North West of England. Today I see the song in a slightly different light…. guilty as charged? I don’t really think so, this isn’t the land of gold […]

I think you may have to get used to a number of these banks being within the boundaries of the city of Potsdam, as well as being taken at the last possible moment during the week.

“It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter, because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.” – David Bailey – In “Face,” (London), Dec 1984. It is with this in mind that we set off on our 53 week photographic journey. There are few things more ordinary than a bank, so in […]
