Featured In FLOWERGANGFlower Offering
In Asian culture making a merit and offering flowers to the Buddha are part of daily life. Flowers, they are exceedingly pure. They are rich with abundant qualities of design, color, fragrance, and soft touch. By nature they are a supreme source of joy in this world.
This photograph showcases the broad minded culture of buddhism; the traditional asian flowers, which are offered to the Buddha, are being prepared on a paper printed with the character of the Spiderman.
What a wonderful moment, or, have a wonderful Moment!

Peter Nitsch was born and raised in the Upper Palatinate, in eastern Bavaria. Working with photography and video, he received his BA in communication design from the Department of Design at the Munich University of Applied Sciences (MUAS).
Influenced by his no-man’s-land childhood in the Upper Palatinate and the German skater scene of the late eighties, Nitsch’s narratives of people in dialogue with life observe individual and collective identities through a bright, clean vision—he uses social context and the (urban) landscape to explore these identities in relation to cultural and intercultural realities.
Nitsch published his first monograph Bangkok – Urban Identities in 2006. He is the recipient of numerous awards, both as designer (New York Festival and BDA, among others) and photographer (Los Angeles International Photography Award and Hasselblad Masters semifinalist, among others). He was cofounder of Europe’s first crossover skate- and snowboard magazine, Playboard, and the corporate design studio RUPA.
In 2020, Nitsch became a lifetime member of the Royal Photographic Society of Thailand.
