songs about roving, rambling and plain hard luck & photography from the other side …

the river

© Rain at the window Berlin 2009 by Fritsch 2009

I died last night, they brought me back again / From where I stood beside the river’s edge / I felt the river flow to where it ends / And now I’m trying to feel that way again (Wyatt Grayson)

    Oh Fritsch!!! you don’t have a sad and weary heart!!! you couldn’t make such beautiful photographs if you were heading toward death, you are heading toward LIFE my friend, and you keep writing songs for unsuspecting girls :)

    Der Regen fliesst wie ein Fluss, Konturen verschwimmen, schemenhaft erhaschen wir einzelne Elemente, dadurch entstehen träumerische Bilder … grossartige Komposition in vorzüglichem schwarzweiss!

    you’re on a roll – excellent, moody shot.

  5. Yes, the river of rain as it makes it way down the window. Sometimes if feels as if we are drowning in it.
    So moody and bleak, and I love it!

    Beautiful photo! I always love these shots through a rain spattered window, but I’ve never had much luck getting one I like. Good work!

    i really like the atmosphere. if i were a kid, i’d go outside and play in the rain, but grown ups prefer to stay inside. =) great one Fritsch!

    j’apprecie le fait que tu aies gardé les montants noircis, à contre jour,de la fenêtre dans ton cadrage.. j’avais fait une série comme ça à Malte, en voiture,que j’avais appelé „vues partielles“, non pas sous la pluie, mais peu importe, c’est l’idée de la vue incomplète qui m’intéresse, et la pluie nous donne aussi, un autre paysage, déformé, souvent mélancolique.. ;)
