I expected a bit more from going there. It should be great if you want to observe birds but landscapes are not very good from there. One exception is, when sight is good, the offshore wind farm “Nordergründe” which can be seen from there. The farm is about 25 kilometers off of the coastline from […]

Bremerhaven – Havenwelten and Simon Loschen lighthouse
Last night I tried to shoot the lighthouse Simon Loschen as planned. Unfortunately, the locations are very close to the lighthouse. I have used the 24mm PC-E, but if it is set so high shifted, the perspective remains as desired, i. e. without falling lines, but to me this seems very unrealistic. I have to […]
Cuxhaven – Sahlenburg
Finally, a promising weather forecast. High and some medium high clouds with sun were reported. We go to the beach in Sahlenburg, which is close by, to take some shots. It was absolutely worth it. The sky was on fire, not as I had it back in 2008 but very close. A shot taken […]
Windmill Midlum
No sooner said than done…. Brilliant weather this morning. Very cold indeed, but a great colour spectacle in the sky. But as it always is, I did choose the wrong place with the mill. The Kugelbake or the water tower would have been very nice. Still, not bad, I guess. The originally intended location from […]
Planning Windmill Midlum
The Midlum Windmill is located close by and should be worth to shoot. [singlepic id=6312 w=800 h=600 float=center] However, it is damn close to have a good spot with the windmill. I’ll have to see that when there. Assume the Nikkor 24mm PC-E is the lens to use for that. [singlepic id=6313 w=800 h=600 float=center]
Good sunset/sunrise prediction
I had published my thoughts around this topic regarding photography at sunrise/sunset here. Today I have the opportunity to visualize this using an example from today’s morning shot at Cuxhaven’s Kugelbake. The picture shows the object and the structures in the sky. Easy to see which clouds don’t get any color. [singlepic id=6310 w=800 h=600 […]
Cuxhaven – Kugelbake
Nice morning in Cuxhaven, so decided to take a shot at the Kugelbake. Using the D850 with the Zeiss 21mm.
Morning at Obereversand
Finally! At least a bit nicer weather forecasted for today, just a couple of hours but, you take what you can get… Some morning shots at Obereversand. It was very windy and chilly outside but it was worth it. The sea was slightly rough. I developed both shots in colour and black & white; on […]
Planning lighthouse Simon Loschen
The Simon Loschen lighthouse is the oldest German land-based lighthouse at the northern coast that is still operating. Planning for a shooting whenever the weather gets better 🙂 [singlepic id=6306 w=800 h=600 float=center] The position should work good in the morning hours when the lighthouse gets the first sunlight. [singlepic id=6308 w=800 h=600 float=center] First […]
New weather station (update)
The new weather station is up and running now. The new plugin is just great and now also shows majority of my historic data. If you want to check it out, here’s the link.
