Inside, outside...



The impression of warmth can also mediate the winter outside.
And last winter I have shot a photo from the window of my studio:
The orange colors of the road lamps...
And inside, in an angle behind the door, the candles for the holy
ones, where my wife Tina has imported from the caribian
(colour prints behind window glasses). The candles burn also
in the summer!

And in these daysI work again straight on trhee new stamps for the Swiss Post.The apple falls not far from the trunk (ore from the head of Tells son?).
