I seek to capture the beauty that is present in every day, and there is inevitably so much more than I could ever expect to grasp.

I am stunned to see so many people sitting on park benches in the afternoon sunshine. And the title is fascinating. Is the large building a kind of hotel? Beautiful photograph.
By the way, I used to know a man (Prof. Doc. Otto Hurm) who was quite famous in your country. He was famous during WW II as a scribe and calligrapher and a designer. He and I used to correspond when I was publishing a magazine on calligraphy and handwriting. His wife sent me a letter and told me he has passed away. That was about 20 years ago. He was famous during the war years and was employed by the Nazi government to prepare hand made scrolls, and other kinds of certificates that were presented to Adolph Hitler. He used to send me some photos of his various projects.
I can't begin to tell you of the number of Germans who wrote to me and send examples of their work done in prison camps to pass the time. One used pieces of broken razor blades to make some of the finest book plates I have ever seen. He might be still alive.
