Airplanes
While we now take a critical view of flying itself, airplanes have lost none of their aesthetics and the fascination they exert on us.

A praise for the blur. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in "Wilhelm Meister's Wander Years" questioned the unconditional use of sharpness of vision, like through glasses: "... I see more than I should see, the sharper world does not harmonize with my inner being, and I quickly put the glasses down again when my curiosity about how this or that is supposed to be satisfied is satisfied. " Thomas Eigel seems to have followed a similar line of thought and counteracts the everyday sensory overload in his pleasantly blurred images. He looks at the world from within, no camera seems to be involved in his creations. He transforms shapes and colors into pure energy and also plays with the limits of abstraction in his photographic experiments. Horst Kloever / photeur.net
