my shoulder, a photo by Beate Knappe on Flickr.

Here's good to see where the break, the Bankart lesion in my shoulder joint is. This will be operated on - and I can not stand this situation without do die of fear - And so I have the idea to make it in a iPhone photo project and invited you to accompany me through these days in the hospital, and so on

it looks

Dislocated shoulder - Bankart lesion-- Why me

noreply@blogger.com (Beate Knappe) — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 11:54:43 PDT

It was all so good-really good and it ran fine. I can not believe it. What do I do now? With one hand I can hardly hold a camera..

work space

noreply@blogger.com (Beate Knappe) — Fri, 20 May 2011 23:38:21 PDT

You remember my work space which I have set up in 2009?

Yesterday now, the workplace ensemble mined there, stowed away in a car and was rebuilt in my photo studio, it fit, as if it was designed exactly for this space was set.
It was a little sad and it's a joy to see, how beautiful my gallery in front of my studio will look soon.
Although I very miss working with textiles, I love to photograph and I feel exactly the right place when I work there

it's a little bit strange, but I'm mainly a photographer at the moment and I have no time to do something else, although I have loved mixed media art and it makes me so sad to see that I am slowly removed from this group of inspiring and creative women. Women who have a long time supported and inspired me....

The word disaster, collapse, fiasco - in these days they get a completely different gravity for me.

Even though the days pics from the huge metropolis of Tokyo look like as nothing had happened - but something was happens there, something for which I have no words, something that will change the world at least as fundamental as the 11th September 2001.
An earthquake, a tsunami and then the Super nuclear disaster - unthinkable.
Even if we in Germany over 9000 miles away from the scene and therefore we not likely to be threatened by radioactive clouds as we are in 1986, after the serious nuclear accident in Chernobyl, we are concerned, since we live on this earth.
Will Japan ever recover from it? Will the Earth ever recover from it?
Generations will be affected.
What is about the events and long-term consequences of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 9 August 1945? We are almost loosing it?
I hope not.

Therefore I will on the coming days not tell you about my daily trivia - it seems to me irrelevant.
It also seems insensitive to me here to speak about my personal happiness, when 9000 km away millions of People from invisible but deadly radioactivity are threatened.

Yes, life goes on, my life goes on!

I will keep shooting pictures from newborns and happiness in the eyes of their parents, I will live my life - what right now seems so right and good for me.

Such is life, the mirror has two sides.....

So much is changing now in my life that I can not put into words. I now have to be my own photo studio with a small shop in a very interesting area of Düsseldorf, I love it to be there, even if the actual studio is still under construction.
I am very productive and I think I have been never photographed before, like I do at the moment. I'm happy! And this is what really count to me!!!!
