photographer captures the beauty of german garden spot. and a look into the explosive works by north region harness do you know thomas. professional diver and abate or has been throwing herself off a rugged ledges for the past 14 years sometimes from a height of up to 20 meters and through these daring feat she's become one of europe's most successful cliff divers we caught up with her in switzerland on the edge of a cliff no less. 3 seconds that's all she's got then on a platter hits the water at a speed of about 85 kilometers an hour. cliff diving its cliff diving gives me this great sense of freedom up there on on my own i'm sort of untouchable me and when i take off and i'm in the advantage that

there's a moment of weightlessness that's what freedom feels like to me i had. one of europe's most popular cliff diving locations is near the swiss village of ponta brawler here northwest of locarno some of the world's best high divers compete in the annual european championships. telling off is vital since cliff divers cannot afford to slip they hit the water at such high speeds that the water surface can act like concrete that's why they always into the water feet 1st. hitting the surface at a bad angle after a 20 meter drop is like being in a fairly serious traffic accident resulting in broken bones sprains and dislocated joints but this mainly happens to novice divers injury rates for professionals are fairly low. the

overwhelmed and say here's essential it helps us stay focused and avoid becoming reckless when. a safe year is generally a good thing for us and we need to prepare ourselves mentally before the dive and then vision the jump in our minds. for them in the end i also do breathing exercises that were really centered when we go once but one thing i would ask. cliff diving is an adrenaline rush on a batter practices yoga during training and at competitions to stay calm and focused. on her partner chris coleman is. is also a professional cliff die for together they have 2 children to keep fitness and family life it balance they often trained together but being a parent and an extreme athlete is not always easy

well i'm a walk more worried about my so like when i'm performing also like once she was diving i'm worried about her her to her because the you know he for if you're single you're responsible off your so but no ever fluke what you do who are a supposable of whole formally gets kid from me you have that really now that i have a family on her class time to train and prepare for competition aunts like that yet that's why i decided to slow down on little undo easy a chump to this when it's a math and i still spoke still even and 2017 i achieved at better results than ever before it's a book or as or child on a did gymnastics springboard diving and later platform diving for but down all change one damon she had was i think mention as and sifton bad by i was 17 i was on vacation in jamaica and there were these locals time to go of the cliff by rick's

cafe i'm diseased it's rick's cafe and there was a platform for tourist it's a jump from littlest and so are did that not forms thing well done have is and own to local sad steve how do that all to your profession know me lady the come over and dive with us that's not and that was my cliff diving debut here in punch of rollo an a bothers cliff diving career took off and to tell see 5 for many years she was the only woman in the stored and had to compete against men no provisions had ever been made for female contenders but this year 3 women and 21 men he took part in the european championships on a bot are and 8 time you repeat and champion placed 2nd. demand that there are plenty other high level competition and with many more opportunities to train and die and that's especially great for us women it was always my dream even when i just started out that that eventually be real competitions to take part

in. her dream has come true but on a founder's not finished yet when faced with a challenge she's always ready to take the plunge. of the opposite end of of that adrenaline rush is perhaps gardening when you live in a big city like berlin and want to garden sometimes your only option is an allotment garden or as they're called here should a bike get well in germany such gardens are as typical as sausages and sauerkraut british photographer martin parr took a new look at this old pastime. fresh produce puttering around outdoors and chatting with the neighbors that's the good village life of an allotment garden. and now the garden has made its way to the museum british star photographer martin parker has devoted an entire series

to the german of documents god knows it's being exhibited at the n r w form indecl golf household right. where the little one is the one photo you have to see the writing. for years a lot when gardeners have the image of being a crutch of the old patterns who joined associations just to plant vegetables but today gardening is trendy especially in big cities. are new to me to me this is a subject that i wanted to look up because you know homogenized world that we all live in the fact that people still get out there they have these communities they live in these gods in the summer with all the problems we have with trump brecht said climate change this to me is a very positive statement the crime gatineau or allotment garden as photos aren't the only ones on display at the n r w forum with some 400 works this is the most

comprehensive power retrospective to date the idea is that i'm trying to address my relationship to the world i'm not telling you this is what you should be thinking made from leaving open ended for people to bring their own baggage their own it's a version of the bridges like this that. the british photographer is known for his colorful bizarre snapshots of everyday life. looking at them viewers can be forgiven the impression that we human beings are a strange lot. of plastic that the photos often contain criticism by the right so tourism a wealth of how people present themselves for many. it's always an affectionate look at people as individuals and how and i express am portrayed himself present your. client get neck isn't as flamboyant or some of past series what do his subjects think of the way he's captured the data how he has

a real knack for making. something about the moment that it is really great this looks. much as such an excuse just 16 years old he meets up with martin for the exhibition. are you going to see you or do you think of a picture quickly turned really good how's it going very good. right from our present you're the youngest gobbler in the room. legally martyr's fraction scheme is too young to own his garden his parents are the official owners but he does all the work himself. i know it's great fun and gives me something to do otherwise i just hang around the house. but i'm also really interested in the concept of sustainability of planting my own things and breaking out of the system a little. veteran gardeners like christa adams are glad that more

and more young people are taking an interest in a lot of gardening. and. they're always welcome to come to me as i've told them all but i'm happy to help whenever they need something i'm always ready to pitch it. to adams the schneiders have also been lovingly tending to their allotment garden for many years now they even have their own economies to them their garden is a peaceful oasis not stuffy at all but a place where they can breathe easier. my neighbors are all great gardeners get along really well and there's nothing boring about them by in-between we take a break and exchange ideas over a beer. or a good bunkum all while we head home at night or always glad to have accomplished a thing or 2 throughout the day. allotment god knows are as varied as their reasons for having a plot whether relaxed or up tight busy bees or free spirits there.

captured in mind to pause photos. nowadays when we are on vacation it's easy for us to snap a picture with our phone and send it directly to our friends along with cheerful holiday greetings but there are still those of us who remain true to the good old postcard now it's celebrating its 150 if anniversary so on this special occasion we asked you to send us in a postcard and we were overwhelmed by the wonderful responses from pakistan india china australia from all over thank you for all the lovely greetings but did you know how postcards came about to be in the 1st place well neither did i. we've got mail your max has received colorful postcards from almost all over the world but how are these wonderful little cards made in the 1st place.

put your finger in the baltic seaside resort of tavern and on the lookout for the patrick postcard motif. of your honor for a new process we have a nice reflection in the water you can see the yachts mirrored in it and one in the background there's the famous old lighthouse of the highrise is a hotel which is also a landmark of tottenham and park and it's a good alternative to the standard reaction on its identity but of plant would not . publish a shining commissioned in govan to shoot images for the top of the postcard the company produces some $11000000.00 postcards a year. this is one hard part vestal important because they're simply part of people's holidays and if you ask folks what makes up their vacation they say eating ice cream playing mini golf going swimming and writing postcards that's why business is still good or. a graphic artist edit in govan has images on his

computer then i printed and close it with a high gloss finish. finally the machine cuts and stacked. in europe the history of postcards began with this correspondence card it came into secular nation and austria-hungary on october the 1st 869 an exhibition that blends museum for communication shows samples from one postcard where in their heyday and the late 19th century. thought us going to go through it was a means of communication for common people who want that used to writing back then there was this whole letter writing culture with complex guidelines on how to compose a letter. postcards were more direct you could send messages quicker using short stock phrases and that caught on and on. in 1005 half

a 1000000000 postcard secular german learn. that played a role and many declarations of love were to leave it. there was a series of cards with good morning good day good evening and good night printed on the top and a pair of lovers exchange them in cars were in 1004 what's interesting is they arrived the same day that was only possible because mail was delivered so often up to 11 times a day in berlin a little less frequently in cars or. in an carts where it was really nowadays there are many passionate postcard collectors as a child in moscow assem an attorney i love to look at his grandfather's many postcards he later inherited then and is today on the chair of the union a flash list of russia. an exhibition a moscow looks at every day life in the city over a century ago back then ordinary muscovites for a popular postcard 19th. here's

a project talking about types types of people who lived in a city at the end of the 19th century beginning of the 20th century nobody was choosing the most general prestigious people or all the nobles all kinds of people somebody you know you're walking in the street or treating pigeons doesn't matter that's what's interesting. capture the moments looking back we can see how people dressed and lived in the past but does the postcard still have a future. of country is still postcards are used to the best greetings with a whole that is not all is some best. thing something on the e-mail but also using a postcard this is a good tradition. and though there are faster and cheaper ways to send greetings people are still happy to receive a postcard. yes that's right we were certainly happy to receive your postcards and

loved reading all your warm wishes but there can only be one winner for our special draw and that is the sound jian family from alaska they sent this card all the way from the arctic circle congratulations and as a thank you we're sending you a d.-w. travel kit don't miss our current viewers drawing you can find out more about that by visiting our facebook page and now next up is a norwegian artist who likes blowing up his own artwork. as soon as it's lit the canvas and reveals his true creation. behind this unusual method one of his greatest gunpowder experiments to date is on display in this office building. it shows his hometown and it took him 3 kilograms

of gunpowder and a week to make. it you can have. which are 3. things but. so that's all. he uses nail clippers to spread the small grains across his canvas the climate in the room is crucial when he works even the slightest breeze could ruin everything. can't be too humid or the gunpowder won't start. even the way the pellets are arranged makes a big difference. to be placed. so. the grains would catch fire from. a chain reaction. across the whole. which makes the

painting appear. recently discovered different less explosive material to work with dust that's how it turned. into a portrait of the famous painter. depiction of the. last supper. it took one day of complete concentration. the dust particles are much finer and lighter than gunpowder. the earth would just fall off if there are some wind the wind will blow it away if there is some rain the rain will just ran away. so. if your breath just fall off you can be very very careful and he's found another way to make art on the streets of his hometown using water repellent paint he transforms

sidewalks into images for example of the beatles characters from the belgian comic a lucky luke all it takes is a little water. so this doesn't contain any. repellent so it's lighter and this is how you create it when it rains when you pour water. also likes to experiment with glow in the dark paint only on the ultraviolet light does this picture show a 2nd with a complimentary motif. chromic pigments that change color when exposed to heat yet another method he uses to combine overlapping images like here with nikola tesla the electric magician. today if you post on social media you compete with absolutely everybody and if you really want

a little edge to your art so you've seen more than other people's art you need to think outside the box and you need to surprise people and do something most people would do so doing. without seeing them all at the same time. gives you an edge do you know tommy keeps coming up with new ideas to surprise his fans on instagram where he's already got 700000 followers and for his next trick he . to try health magnetic dust each time he finishes one work his mind is already on the next. and now here is something to whet your appetite a gourmet event that uses let's say rugged cooking methods from the olden days at the unplugged taste festival 7 leaving chefs transform an alpine pasture into an open air show kitchen they entice their guests with traditional dishes with a fresh new twist but that's only

a traditional part of their cooking. the goat is a mouthful and not only for the way it's pronounced it's also home to an exquisite culling area treat the gourmet event the unplugged taste here 1900 metres above sea level 7 award winning chefs prepare their specialties on wood burning stoves no roof no electricity it's all open air they serve things like calf with parsnip you're a or b for shelter on vegetables. and hoards hoaxers in a wood stove need to rely on their senses it starts with how they make the fire how hot does it need to be burning stoves don't distribute the heat evenly the temperature varies at different spots so when you can control that then you're really cooking with a fine touch by then forward though you thought less moaning you could see smoke rising the air tasted like smoke and then it started tasting like food i love it it reminds you of what it means to be a cook. and putting something together over

a wood stove that store requires on his craftsmanship of arc that. knows how to get an old stove fired up the key is to start with a strong draft so he leaves the doors open for now. otherwise you just have to help out a bit and blow on the flames that works. and now he waits the water for his deep soup takes half an hour to start boiling. by comparison things are much easier on the induction cooker in his restaurant so i turn it on high and he can see the difference the water is already starting to heat up with the thing to life down through. the fastest to with the vegetables on the low heat for 2 hours inside it's easy to adjust the temperature but outside. booklets over. the woodstove isn't as easy to regulate the heat disperses on evenly. across the

iron stove top. it's you know it's time to juggle and play with our food so i'll push it over to the side here so we consume a chant. cooking times are different but in the end felt of acres bronte's finally ready. to hop up the street that i'm on the main difference is that this takes about 5 times longer to make just the one i use an induction cooker looked like sauce me off they took turns blocking. cultivator is also preparing steak with results for the festival andreas kona gives it a try the food critic from south to rule is at the unplugged taste festival to judge the cook's finesse on wood burning stoves and the winner is a tell you and cook. and his convertible boiled dumplings made of trout and beetroot is a coming out through interviews on the way he combined the beach with smoked trout oil whole new way of it's amazing work. at home we grow up with a wood stove that's why i have no problem cooking over

a fire here i can still remember that meaty soup waiting to. it was the best can't even make it as well in my kitchen out of who can equal so he. sometimes the unusual working conditions high up in the mountains inspire the gourmet chefs to cook up something new for once you've gotten a hang up a wood burning stove you can experiment with smoky and woody flavors of in the news as we have it because it was so heavy we'd take it home or had it flown out those flew us. the art of cooking on a wood stove bought cuisine for nature fans. and it's time to wrap up the show but before we go we leave you with a tribute to one of germany's most famous photographer peter lindbergh passed away this week at the age of 74 now his art to find an error and he was able to capture

the essence of women like no other well here's a look back now at some of his iconic work. peter limburg certainly be missed but his legacy lives on in his work and with that we say thank you for watching listening and next.
