Farmland in Germany

Matthew G. Beall   Farmland  2012

I sometimes do not have to leave my apartment to find wonderfully interesting things to make a photograph of.

It has been very cold here in southern Germany, ice cold. I opened a window to find this icicle waiting and wanting to be photographed.

Not far from Ulm, Germany, stands an old barn in a farmer's field surrounded by soft, white fresh winter snow.

Not too far from Ulm is a field covered in fresh snow ...

Not too far from Ulm stands a lonely barn ...

Nebel in German means Fog in English. Foggy fall days are the norm here in Ulm, Germany. Combine a foggy day in Ulm, the Danube River (Donau in German), the damn and the vision driven moi with my camera, you come up with this.

As the winter sun was setting it painted shadows on the walls inside my apartment. Although to some it may be mundane, to me it is extraordinary. Look, See, Think.

I am a visual artist. I am vision driven.

I make photographs. I am a photographer.

I make paintings.  I am a painter.

I believe that one should:
          
           Look, See, Think

• Look at what you See
• See what you Look at
• Think about what you See

As I've said before, I don't have to leave the apartment to hunt for a shot. Early Jan. brought rain, sleet and some snow. Water on a window is pretty awesome in my opinion. Sometimes you can feel how wet it is without even touching it.

November in Ulm, Germany is foggy and misty. The forest next to the Danube is both mystical and haunting.

It was a sunny day as I walked along the Danube in Ulm, Germany.  I am  constantly searching for interesting light and shadow, which I found under this bridge that connects Ulm to Neu Ulm.

Sometimes I can't resist this kind of shot.
