Jungleland

From the churches to the jails

Tonight all is silence in the world

As we take our stand

Down in Jungleland

("Jungleland", Bruce Springsteen)

dying in the moonlight?"

I was challenged to take a self portrait, which I'll get done by the end of the week (hopefully). Maybe I'm gonna upload it on here, maybe not. Before I can think about what exactly I'm gonna come up with, I gotta finish writing this 15-page-essay about the Ara Pacis Augustae, a building in Rome. Usually, it's not difficult to write 15 pages, but it's taking a long time because you have to use footnotes every time you write something which isn't the result of your own scientific research into the topic.

Before I forget it, here's another picture taken about an hour before the one above. It's the Docklands building in Hamburg. I would've loved to take it during the blue hour too, but the shipwreck was more important to me so I guess I'll be coming back some other day, and shoot it from the same position as this one.

I hope you've had a great week so far.
