House sparrows are a plucky species of bird, extremely adaptable and accustomed to living alongside humans. While native to Europe, due to intentional and accidental introductions, they are now the most widely distributed wild bird on the planet.

Leonid Kotelnikov, aka fake_trailers, mid-performance at ACT 6 last year. This was one of the most unusual performances I've seen! At times hilarious, at other times grotesque, it certainly isn't something I'll forget any time soon.

Part of an installation at the Albertinum in Dresden - the delightfully textured and coloured shape gradually but then rapidly fades to complete blackness - as though the light has been entirely swallowed and could not find its way back out.

A warped reflective surface allowed me to look at the world quite differently, a world of colour and blur, indistinct shapes merging and folding into each other. Fragments of passing moments, frozen in shape and texture.

I found this cross section of the indoor courtyard at Humoldt Forum in Berlin to be quite fascinating to look at. Possibly because I had no idea what all these doors could be for.

I just love the intricacy of this flower, so beautiful and packed with detail. However I'm a little unsure of the species. My guess is Dahlia (contrary to Plant NET). Any suggestions from out there?

I just love the intricacy of this flower, so beautiful and packed with detail. Interestingly PlantNet, which is usually pretty spot on, suggested there’s a 10% chance this is a China Aster, a…

Isolated from its surroundings, colour, and context, this chimney becomes a study of shape and texture and shadow. I like the sensation of a curved shape on a background that feels almost flat and featureless.

I've seen quite a few foxes in Berlin, but this was special. As I returned from the shop, a beautiful healthy looking fox was standing at the entrance to a courtyard. We watched each other for quite some time. Wonderful!

A common sight around Weihnachtsmarkten in Germany are these decorative stars that double as lights. I'm not big on decorations at that time of year, but I will say they help to brighten up the drab and grey German winter.
