During the last current years I visited the seamans mission DUCKDALBEN to portrait sailors, who visit Hamburg for a couple of hours.
During these times they got the only possibility to phone, skype, relax or just waste time.
Together with the Art Director Wiepke Altmann I shot nearly 300 sailors over the years and this is the choice- we picked 40 portraits that try to give an inside view of their solitude and homesickness.
