the caravan
After retirement his passion for art was ignited. His first artworks were graphic images, computer-generated via mathematical algorithms. He was fascinated by the interplay between colors, lines and shapes.
The idea behind this drew inspiration by the works of French media artist Vera Molnár who is considered a pioneer of computer art back in the 1960s.
He later experimented using actual photographs as seeds of computer modifications that turned them into abstract images. Some of these explorations involved fractals, which lead to universes within universes, never ending cascades of self-similar geometric beauty.
Since 2013 Hans-Martin focuses mainly on photography without alteration. Most of his images capture the stunning geometric patterns that can be found in manmade structures and the natural world. His work has been published worldwide and it has been recognized with numerous international awards. In 2020 the distinction Excellence FIAP (EFIAP) was awarded to him by the International Federation of Photographic Art (FIAP).

entry description
This caravan can rarely be photographed in that way. Only on Sundays when no parking cars on the left and on the right are seen and only during 6-8 weeks in summer when the maize has grown high enough to hide the disturbing background with power lines and buildings on the horizon this photo is possible. In addition you need luck with the weather. I'm very thankful that in 2016 (on 1. August) I could shoot this photograph, when the slightly clouded sky conveyed a friendly summer mood. Right now the corn has been harvested, so you have to wait until Juli / August 2017 to shoot some more photos. Provided that the caravan ist still standing there.about the photographer
