I admit: I may never get to know Jürgen Schian personally. Only once - in about five years - we have each other on the phone when I got the rights to use a photo (there were "human-Anger-Not" figures) acquired for a Web project.
some point - some time later - I found his website a link to subscribe to a newsletter. What I then did. For a long time, I'm so quiet regular reader of his, such as monthly postings and have always again carried out on this, my, photo blog on various items of interest and to link particular recommendations. So far, however, this remained with the intent - the daily work was a priority and so I have some links in the "reminder" that I already wanted to make public long ago.
Now I received earlier this week the latest news from Jürgen Schian in which he informed in all modesty about an anniversary: "60 years of amateur photographer". With a link to - as elsewhere always - a carefully designed special page .
For me, this newsletter, first one: motivation, I again added to my to take care of neglected photo blog. And with this post, so to speak initiate resuscitation. With the serious intent to write regularly here again in the future. It's not like that I was passive as a photographer - many found on my page company or alternatively the "web" for specific photos by http://digitalpilot.wordpress.com/ . Even with Panoramio I was not non-active and got there in 2009 but still prepare some photos and / or present ...
But back to the topic of this paper. What I like about Jürgen Schian, his creativity in photography in general, and his openness to modern technology. Seemingly effortlessly, he has made the switch from the "analog" to digital photography, and "incidentally", he has turned to the Internet medium and made attractive, pleasing presentations of his work to the web. That he is still considered "amateur photographer" means, many would drive the alleged pro blush. Especially when you click on his website once browsed a little longer. Who lacks the time: I've saved the links to, in my view most interesting contributions here and I will write about it and link.
Today is Good Friday - by his own admission - ie 60 years since Jürgen Schian first devoted to photography. This is for me, who his photographic work always (secretly) paid tribute of respect and recognition of more than one reason to congratulate him on this way for the anniversary.
I wish you, Mr. Schian, in this way a lot of health, still many creative ideas and successful implementation and I am happy when I reached your newsletter in the usual regularity continue. Greet you and your understanding woman, for without a tolerant partner alongside such a hobby can not really live.
With best wishes from the Erzgebirge, Matthias
