Cuxhaven calendar 2023
The city of Cuxhaven has published this week your calendar for the year 2023. The photos for the calendar this time all come from my portfolio. High quality prints in different sizes and on different media from the motifs in the calendar can be ordered through my printshop.

Westerwisch in infrared
