ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The yellow-orange color of the sky near the horizon is due to Rayleigh scattering of the light from the low evening sun on its long journey through the atmosphere. The blue and green parts of the sunlight are scattered to the sides and only the red and yellow light reach the eye or camera and mix (additive color mixing) to orange. The sea is covered with small waves. Depending on their inclination, these reflect the blue skylight near the zenith or the orange skylight near the horizon to the eye. These blend into green. The photo was taken with a 300mm lens and shows only a small part of the horizon. Minimalist arrangement and colors create an impression of calm and infinity, reminiscent of paintings by Rothko. The photos are printed on a fineart paper 308 g / m² in the dimensions 60 cm x 40 cm. Limited edition of 20, signed and numbered. Other dimensions on request.

I live in a small village in Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) 12 km from the Baltic Sea and spend many hours by the sea or in beautiful “Holstein Switzerland”. My photographic interest is in the wonders and beauties of nature that have to do with physics in the broadest sense. With that I move in the field of tension between aesthetics, art and science. The physical gaze draws attention to astonishing phenomena that otherwise remain easily hidden because of their "inconspicuousness", such as the colors of spider webs, the colors of the sea or fata morgana effects on the horizon. Explanation and scientific-historical classification of phenomena lead to a deeper experience for me. I would like to share this happiness with others through my photos and explanations. I used many of my nature photos in schoolclass and experienced how children and young people who were rather negative about physics found access to physics. The photos have also been incorporated into school books and teacher training lectures. Now, after my retirement, I have intensified my preoccupation with photos and I am making it public with exhibitions and on social media.
