Carnival of Cultures 2015

Since 19 years the “Carnival der Kulturen” (carnival of cultures) takes place in Bielefeld. It is always a colorful procession with a lot of creative and beautiful costumes and a good occasion for shooting nice pictures.

This year I took my 70-300 mm lens with me and made a lot of portrait shots.

Procesión del Silencio

Relax! Although this a little bit threatening looking guy seems to be a member of the Ku-Klux-Klan I can tell you not to worry: It’s just a catholic (well maybe he is a little bit more catholic than the usual catholic…). And the stick in his hand is not a baseball bat but a large candle (maybe used for exorcism – who knows).

The Green Eldar

When I took this picture I had to think about an Eldar roaming through the forest of Lothlórien by night : )

Firebird

I took this photo on a juggling convention in Berlin last year. It took place at a really awesome location right at the side of a small lake in a park in the eastern side of Berlin.
