“Yesterday in the evenings twilight I´ve been flying above this volcano: The first human doing this with powered paraglider.

The strong hoists from gases of the liquid lava made my hair look a little bit funny… feeling very awake between inspiration, technology and nature benefit. Being conscious of making a unique experience and to see, what very few see in this place.”
A very special day - nevertheless for the traveler one day with " normality". Making your life a completely special one. Sharing the most beautiful moments with other persons - if not at this place, then after returning. Living in hope of others recognizing this this place to be a very special one and recognizing the beauty of our world. Because who recognizes the beauty will learn to protect it.
A special life means acting, is working strong, living originality. Difficulties belong to these experiences and the confirmation to have grown.
Nature as artwork? Only an apparent contradiction. Nature is natural. The work of art develops in the eye of the viewer. The philosopher thinks of interior world and outside world, he thinks of us creating ourselves own world - also without physical activity, however by our thoughts -. The photographer leads the view, but the one who views has to view himself.
The quotation of Joseph Beuys reveals itself here: " Each human is a artist" - at least if it is able to see in the photos. " Who has eyes to see, shall see." ….

Distrust… . Curiosity… Sympathy… hasty arrests… - all of this belongs to flights in many countries. In this case I got one policeman and four soldiers as personal escort assigned - three wanted not to be photographed. The “plane” was absolutely safe… with the sight showed potential thieves from 5 km distance minimum - for close combat there were Kalaschinkows and hand grenades.
