E On one beautiful day in Cape Town two friends and me just sat in the bus and drove more than one hour out of the city. Our destination? Big Bay, a beautiful beach on the other side of Cape Town, with the best view at the city. We never really made it to Big Bay, but we found this beautiful other beach, where we were nearly alone. It was one of these hot days and we even could wear short pants. That was kind of a premier in our time in Cape Town. At this beautiful place we had a lot of fun, I built a sand castle - I love sand castles! - and watched the sunset together. But I also have to tell you a story: I was just standing there with my tripod and took photos of the sunset and a guy came to me and was like: "Did you just photograph the sunset?" and so on and then he told me that just in the moment I took photos he watched the sunset and that was the moment he know, that he loves his best friend and wants to marry her. And then he told me that he really wanted to have this photo, I gave him my business card and he never wrote me. But well, maybe he will read this post and: yes guy, you are allowed to download the picture or write me a comment. I don't know, for me that was just a moment, when I felt like my photography really makes sense and that I could really inspire people with it and make them happy. So what do you think of the beach and the pictures?
D An einem wunderschönen Tag in Kapstadt habe ich mich mit zwei Freunden in den Bus gesetzt und sind eine Stunde aus der Stadt herausgefahren. Wohin? Big Bay, ein wunderschöner Strand auf der anderen Seite Kapstadts, mit einem grandiosen Blick auf die Stand. In Wirklichkeit haben wir es nie wirklich nach Big Bay geschafft, aber wir haben diesen tollen anderen Strand gefunden, auf dem wir fast alleine waren. Es war einer der wärmeren Tage, an denen man sogar mal kurze Hosen tragen konnte. Eine wahre Premiere in meiner Zeit in Kapstadt. An diesem tollen Platz hatten wir eine Menge Spaß, ich hab eine Sandburg gebaut - ich liebe liebe liebe Sandburgen! - und den Sonnenuntergang zusammen geschaut. Aber ich habe noch eine kleine Geschichte zu diesem Strand zu erzählen: Ich stand also da mit meinem Stativ und habe einige Fotos vom Sonnenuntergang geschossen, als plötzlich ein junger Mann zu mir her kam und mich fragte, ob ich gerade den Sonnenuntergang fotografiert habe. Dann meinte er, er muss dieses Foto unbedingt haben, er habe genau in dem Moment, in dem ich Fotos gemacht habe quasi eine Erleuchtung gehabt und ihm wäre klar geworden, dass er seine beste Freundin liebt und heiraten möchte. Nun gut, ich habe ihm meine Visitenkarte gegeben und er hat sich niemals gemeldet. Aber falls du das hier liest, ja du darfst das Foto runterladen oder gerne einen Kommentar hinterlassen. Ich weiß nicht, für mich war diese kleine Geschichte einfach ein Moment, in dem man wirklich sieht, dass man andere Leute mit Fotografien inspirieren und glücklich machen kann, das einfach alles einen Sinn hat. Was sagt ihr zu den Bildern?
