A narrow river, the Gera in Erfurt, flows diagonally across the image.
The clear water reveals the stony riverbed and subtle ripples on the surface. Tall, yellow-green grasses reach into the frame on the right edge, and in front of them, a construction warning sign lies askew in the water, as if it had slipped off the bank.
It lends itself to themes such as the environment, flooding, river landscapes, everyday irony, human impact on nature, infrastructure, and is actually almost perfect for a 404 error message on a website.
The photograph combines natural elements with human influence, creating a look that is both humorous and thought-provoking.
