Time out
This week is quickly told. I caught a cold and spent it mostly at home and with a tissue in front of my face. So all came to a rest for a few days.
I started into the new week differently. While everything was still fine on Sunday, I didn’t feel healthy on Monday right after I woke up. I couldn’t even tell what was wrong with me. It was just a feeling that something was not as usual and I was not in the mood to either lift weights nor to go jogging. So I started the day more leisurely than the previous ones.
A spontaneous last walk on Monday
Since Monday was a beautiful day, I went for spontaneous walk in the afternoon and bought a vase and a bowl at a thriftstore to furnish the studio kitchen. On the way back I chose the paths of Riverside park to feel a bit of nature around me and enjoy the late afternoon sun.

Working from home – almost
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday were days that I didn’t want to go out at all. I felt miserable. Nevertheless, since my studio is in the house next door, I went there every day for a few hours and did some work. The rest of the days were spent reading and watching Netflix while the tissues piled up next to the couch.

Back to normal
Friday finally I started to feel better and on the weekend I was so fit again, we could have all the planned meals with friends.
So I didn’t take many photos during the last week. A few more impressions from a walk in Central Park on Sunday. I still hope to take pictures of snow covered landscapes soon there. Oh yes, and I took one of the dog in the building across the street, that looked down at me pityingly, while I lay on the sofa with my cold.

Enriching ordinary days
Finally a more versatile week in terms of weather and a week that feels more like October than the previous ones. Also, a week of preparation and a week in which I realized how beneficial little escapes from the daily grind can be.

What a difference a day makes
My summer in New York is always a time of extremes. An alternation between the hectic cosmopolitan city, with its impulsive energy and bustling life, on the one hand, and the seclusion of Fire Island on the other: peaceful nature, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, without cars, without stress, just sand, ocean, sky.

Cheers to everyday life
Of some weeks, only a single highlight sticks in the memory because the rest of the time was spent doing business as usual. This everyday life that we always perceive as insignificant and yet takes up so much of our lives.

About bringing order into chaos
Colors, shapes and structures…the components that make up our environment. Be it in nature or made by humans. This week’s photos of things that inspired me deal with this topic in architecture and nature.
