me - a photo on Flickriver

            I have been tagged. (Thanks Natasa 10!)

Took this photo just before being tagged. That makes it the perfect and most recent self-portrait.

My favourite colour is yellow. It's warm and happy.

The colour I am most attracted to, when taking photos, is orange. (Not so much sunrises and sunsets though.)

I have to draw or paint. If I don't, I feel unwell. 

My favourite artists: Franz Marc and August Macke

My favourite voices: Vince Jones and Mohamed Rafi. Favourite group: OMD. 

Favourite song writer: Leonard Cohen. Favourite classical composers: Schubert, Liszt, Chopin, Satie, Beethoven...

I am more of a cat person than a dog person. Maybe that's why our 2 dogs behave like panthers: they play stalking and pouncing each other, just like cats would do. Very funny to watch.

I grew up in Germany, around Hamburg. Have been living in Sydney for 20 years. I miss proper seasons, especially winter with all it's beauty of snow and ice.

I love rainy days and get depressed after prolonged periods of completely cloudless skies.

I love people who are passionate about what they are doing.
