»Adel verzichtet«* is a short reportage about how the nobility's life is like nowadays in South Tyrol / Italy. I realised it as a finalist within the 2008 South Tyrol Award for young photojournalists in collaboration with Kati Thielitz (Text). This is Franz Graf von Spiegelfeld in the garden of Schloss Schenna with a scenic view over the Merano basin.
*(literally: »Nobility abandons« referring to the well-known German saying »Adel verpflichtet« which means »Nobility obligates«)
