Unter Geiern… Das war jedenfalls der Plan für einen Tag. Leider hatte das den Geiern wohl keiner gesteckt. Das Wetter war allerdings auch sehr schlecht und so liessen sie sich nach über sieben Stunden Wartezeit für ca. 2 Minuten blicken. In der Zwischenzeit vertrieb uns ein Rotkehlchen und ein kleiner Trupp Ichneumons die Zeit. Am […]

Extremadura – Tag 1
Vom 7. bis 13. November haben wir eine Reise in die Extremadura gemacht. Hauptsächlich ging es hier um Vogelfotografie. Teilweise aus Ansitzen, aber auch auf Exkursionen. Im Nachhinein kann man sagen, daß die Jahreszeit dazu nicht geeignet ist. Eher sollte hier der Frühling oder der Frühherbst in Betracht gezogen werden. Dennoch, so einige Arten waren […]
Supplement to the Obereversand

Westphalian Mill Road

The weather on last Thursday was quite pleasing. Most of the windmills there are so called “Galerieholländer” or “Wallholländer”. Most of the time the 24mm […]
NGC 7023 – Iris nebula
After the Bode galaxies shots I programmed the software and took 175 pictures of the Iris Nebula. This ran until about 4:30 am. The recording data and astrometry evaluation.
