Who will be German champion...

And who will sit next to me at the start of the game? Naturally: the colleague from dpa! This time I just implemented myself. As a result, I missed a great celebration scene because after the 1-0 win, the HSV players celebrated right in front of my former spot. But I wasn't annoyed because I probably wouldn't have been able to sell the picture anyway - it's simply cheaper at the dpa...

And after the game, of course, the agency asked why I didn't have any photos of the celebration. Well, that's life. Emotions are more important than duels and things like that. Everyone can see it in the newspapers every day: almost only photos of celebration are shown. You hardly find exciting duels anymore. I personally think it's a shame. How do you like that?

  1. Emotions convey the central message and the reader can see from the picture who came out victorious. I think that's the main reason.

    Unfortunately it's a little boring and monotonous. I think your header photo is fantastic. Unfortunately, this is in the wrong format for many newspapers. It's a shame, a real shame, some publishers should simply have more courage here.

    And if Cologne had still scored 2-2, your picture 10 would probably be ideal.
    BU: “Two goals and yet only one point. Guerrero doesn’t understand the world anymore.”
    But things turned out differently (unfortunately) 😉

  2. Well - I had exactly the opposite at Kickers Emden's third division game (yes - *sob*): my colleagues were all sitting on the sidelines and I was the only one sitting next to the goal. And at 1-0 they rolled on the floor in front of me. The goalscorer also ran towards me while celebrating and looked into the camera…

    That was great.

    Otherwise you have really great pictures on your site.
