What is missing?: In the Neues Museum, Berlin Just fishing: Harbour lights with a lone fisherman Smoke may get in your eyes…: A view in northern Spain of factory smoke and an engineer in the foreground The skier: A view of a cross country skier Not a friend? Is there a decision?: A walker in the Swiss Alps Making it up Sauntering in the Rub’ al Khali, the Empty Quarter: Enjoying the solitude whilst trekking amongst the dunes of the Empty Quarter in Oman Alone with my thoughts: Reflections from the Paul-Löbe-Haus, Berlin
