Platform 11 (2025) Photograph by Folker Michaelsen

This photograph was taken in 2025 at Platform 11 of Frankfurt's main railway station in Germany.

It is the result of an experiment with in-camera multiple exposures, combining around 30 individual photographs into a single image. For each exposure, I slightly changed the camera position while keeping the emergency exit sign in exactly the same place.

The result is a mix of different perspectives and moments in time. While the clock remains a fixed point, people, trains and the station itself appear in overlapping layers. The movement of people and trains adds another dimension, as they are captured at different moments and in different positions.

What I like about this technique is how it transforms a familiar, everyday scene into something quite different, while still keeping a connection to the original place.
