Navigating Lifes Crossroads by Wilfried ClausNavigating Lifes Crossroads by Wilfried Claus
A young couple comes towards us in a pedestrian tunnel, only a few millimeters between their hands. Coincidence? A couple or none (yet)? We don't know. In the shadow of the tunnel, the two look almost shadowy like silhouettes. Very similar to the people depicted on a frieze of pictures on the side walls of the tunnel – photographed doing sports or going for a walk. The picture frieze is an art installation by Sigrid Lange, an artist from North Rhine-Westphalia. Through the tunnel belonging to the Pulheim station you reach the other side of the platform of the double-track railway line.
The Abandoned Bicycle by Wilfried ClausThe Abandoned Bicycle by Wilfried Claus
The concrete-dominated, unadorned railway underpass is part of the station in Pulheim, a medium-sized town west of Cologne. The numerous mounted bike racks are hardly used despite the morning rush hour, obviously because the atmosphere here is quite uncomfortable and parking the bikes in this remote place is hardly theft-proof. A planning mistake on the part of the city? The individual bicycle makes the abandonment of the place clear.

Like every year in autumn. When oaks blush and the maple shines yellow. If soon a breeze is enough to blow the leaves off the branch.
