many of the howto-photobooks i have read recommend repeating patterns as a recipe for better pictures. so i couldn't resist this setup (in the science center of salzburg's "house of the nature"). the first pictures with only yours truly as subject were a bit dull, but soon one of the daughters came to look. this was already better, but really good it became when she was joined by her twin sister. aah - and don't think that clothing them equal is a quirk or a deliberate decision of the parents: it is purely a strategy to avoid unnecessary fights for this or that special t-shirt (replace t-shirt with pants, sweater and so on, ad nauseam).

with the colors i am still not completely content, but the color cast from the green walls was so strong that i couldn't find a better correction without loosing that green, which in itself is a strong component of the picture.

the way home from office in munich invariably leads my steps along a hairdresser's shop on one of the main roads, and the light and reflections as well as the colors are always interesting. this window was already subject matter for this post, but this time i caught the barber in action.
