photo exhibit - closing time
tonight we had a final party for our photo exhibition.
yes, i organised an exhibition of pictures with some friends. i’m just an amateur, very very beginner. my friends are amateur too, but nonetheless we organised this exhibit thing. which turned out to be something exciting, especially because the place we used is really great. the place is an old inner pool from beginning of XX century, been closed for last 25 years or so... very decadent, rough appearance...
we had the exhibition just for fun, but it was nice to play with this awesome place. and to organise some kind of event, i mean something serious but totally not-science-related...
this was great!
one of my pictures is this one with the crane. don’t have the other ones. didn’t scan them yet. yes, i pretend to be a posh old style photographer shooting only on film. actually i’m just learning. i don’t pretend anything. i just like taking pictures at containers in harbours. this one was in mannheim harbour. mannheim is the closest city here, some 15 min drive. it’s a river harbour, obviously. god knows where is the sea in this country. and not even the best harbour ever. nonetheless i like going there. walking around, wondering when all that stuff is leaving and where it’s going and where it’s been before and all that stuff.
also the other pictures show goods and stuff and harbours and trucks and containers. what can i say, i like logistics. pretty weird, i know.
tonight we closed the exhibit. last party. the germans call it finissage. sounds really posh. even vernissage sounds posh to me. but we’re not, really. well actually we pretend to be deep and cultural. i also had the idea - and this is very posh - of having a friend of mine playing live music during the party. played the piano. was very nice, just that to pick up a piano, even though an electric one, and drive it around the city is not that enjoyable. regret stupid idea all yesterday, but still, result was pretty cool.
here are a couple of links about the exhibit
