Early morning at Cuxhaven’s town landmark the Kugelbake. The weather forecast wasn’t really promising but it turned out to be a stunning sunrise. I used the D800 with the Samyang 135f2 and a polarizer for some decent shots while the sun was rising.

Early morning at the “Alte Liebe” in Cuxhaven. Short but somewhat nice sunrise time with just a small area where the sun was coming through the clouds.

Another set of sunset shots at the lighthouse. First time was spent to grab some impressions of the so called “Wremer Tief”, later a couple of shots of the lighthouse itself.

Early morning shot taken in Cappel-Neufeld. Nice sunrise in the back lighting the clouds in front of me. First shot taken with the Zeiss 21f2.8 and second with the Samyang 135f2.

Morning sunrise in the conservation area.

Unfortunately, the sky didn’t turn to the full red in the cloudy area but still a nice one. Used the D800 on […]

Just for one shot down to the “Alte Liebe”. With such conditions a black and whit edoes make a better job. Using the D800 with Zeiss 35f2 and Polarizer with 10-Stop ND. At f8 this was resulting in 30 seconds exposure time which smoothed the water quite well.

Minus degrees and some nice white frost on the trees and the gras. Some roe deers looking for food…

I did several attempts to shoot another time at Obereversand while having sunset, but either time didn’t permit or the weather was turning so that the scenery didn’t look as I was expecting. Yesterday it worked quite well. I spent 2h there shooting several scenes. Although the evening was quite nice I prefer to go […]
