What a great day. 100?F. 4:0. Again, Darmstadt was one big party after the game. Actually, it didn’t start well: When I came to the Luisenplatz before the game, everything was dead. No fans, no folks at the annual Heinerfest, no big crowds at the big screens. I had to run around for a while to get some pictures in the can. But as soon as the game was over, it seemed like people were coming out of their holes like mad. The familiar walk through the tunnel, the flags, the vuvuzelas…wow! I took some pics before and some after the game – can you tell which ones are which?

Hey, if you read this because you were photographed by me – especially if you are that lovely lady from the first picture – send me a message or a comment if you like the picture. If yours ain’t here, send me a message, too! I only put up a small selection to keep the blog from exploding. I’ll add a new series as soon as I find the time – There’ll be room for some mo’!

… and the best news is: Two more games – two more world cup features for me and you!

The show goes on – Germany has won the match 4:1 (should be 4:2 with the revenge-for-wembley goal)! Good for me – more happy fans for my World Cup Portrait series! I snapped some great pictures today, Darmstadt was completely freaking out. I don’t have the time to post process the portraits, however, as a teaser, I want to share some shots from after the game.
