":) Tobi... what can I say about him? His photos are always surprise for me - you never know, what it will be today: architecture, nature, portrait, abstract or something else....? ) But in every photo you can find a soul, beautiful and poetic soul. That's why for me it's more then just a perfect photos.

And you are lucky if Tobi is a friend of yours. I'm lucky too! ) His friendship is a gift I appreciate a lot. Not too much words, but I can always feel his invisible kindly support. Thank you, Tobi, for being my friend! ))"

"Tobi is such a kind person, has a great sense of humour, a great 'eye' for photography. His love of family traditions, country, nature, and fun is so refreshing. My family and I love looking at his photos, seeing what he sees. All the typical German food and traditional things for Christmas has been lovely to be allowed to share a part of.
I am really honoured to be counted among his friends.
Thank you! ☺☺"
