Chris explored the Dolomites’ dramatic landscapes, capturing the mountain range’s raw and captivating atmosphere. An avid traveller, Siegfried brought fresh inspiration from Copenhagen, sparking a new series that reflects the city’s vibrant energy. With his passion for seascapes, Horst once again ventured to the coast, creating images that celebrate the serene beauty of the shoreline. Eberhard’s journey took him to the streets of Vienna, where he documented the charm and intricacies of urban life. Meanwhile, Martin interpreted “Artists for Peace,” a theme he had explored for a recent exhibition, presenting a thoughtful and expressive contribution to the project.
The diverse collection highlights the rich range of styles within the Germany Chapter, spanning portraiture, landscape, abstract, and street photography. Each piece offers insight into the artist’s vision, creating a compelling, multifaceted gallery demonstrating technical mastery and stimulating discussions on technique, composition, and intent.
These quarterly gatherings have become a core element of the chapter’s activities, strengthening the Royal Photographic Society's mission to foster photographic excellence and build community among its members. The Germany Chapter inspires and elevates the photographic craft through this collaborative project, celebrating individual creativity and collective growth.
The image captures the striking Sassolungo mountain partially obscured by swirling mist and heavy clouds, evoking a mystical mood. A vibrant green hillside in the foreground contrasts with the dark pine forest that stretches toward the distant peak. The scene combines tranquillity with the rugged, untamed beauty of the Dolomites.
While wandering around the city centre's backyards during my last stay in Copenhagen, I thought of a new series. I wanted to show the city’s backyards from a different perspective. So, I took this photo, along with others, in which I tried to combine the details of the building with the trees in the courtyard to create a harmonious composition, as I found the usual upright composition boring and lacking in tension.
I found this rotten piece of wood while walking along the Dutch coast. I tried to make the photo more dramatic by lowering the angle and using BW in high contrast.
While strolling through Vienna’s beautiful city centre, I discovered this window café on a small side street. I’ve never seen anything like it anywhere before.
For a photo exhibition on “Artists for Peace”, I tried to illustrate the topic with photos of different coloured hands. I have done so after being asked whether I had tried the pictures in black and white.
