Victor S. Brigola Photography

“some people are bullfighters, some people are politicians. i’m a photographer.”

i think it was david alan harvey, the famous magnum and national geographic photographer, who once said “you take one, maybe two pictures a year”. this is my picture 2011. i took it through the window of my car on the 26th of august 2011 at the susten pass in switzerland after a little thunderstorm came down.

oops…it ran aground last night near the island of giglio/italy…damn!
i took the picture in the port of genoa in 2006 when the ship was brand-new.

Rowhousechurches – Squeezing In Some Spirituality
Astonishing things come along with the growth of cities. One characteristic of a large city is the lack of space. As a result a city’s churches often do not stand free as they do in more rural areas. The visitor cannot circle the church and quite often even just sees its front side. Numerous variations of those so-called “Rowhousechurches” are spread all over Berlin. They line up like residential buildings. However, they are different: taller, more striking and explicitly spiritual.
