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 […]

Some pictures taken after heavy rain and thunderstorm in the harbor area. The sun came out late in the evening while the clouds where moving towards north-east.

Sunny but also slightly foggy day. Sigma had sent back the adjusted 18-35, I wanted to give it another try with the D7200. Around the Steubenhöft and during a ferry ride some good chances to test the lens. Besides the prime lenses from Sigma this is probably the sharpest lens ever seen on DX.

Some pictures from here and there taken last Sunday. Using the D2x with the Sigma 10-20 for above shot.

Wanted to have one or two shots with the Kugelbake (Cuxhaven Monument) but due to foggy conditions the photos aren’t very clear. Majority of the […]

Using the Sigma 10-20 f3.5 for some shots at the “Alte Liebe” on my D2x. Mainly to test the lens and see how the zoom performs.

Trying the D7200 and Sigma 30f1.4 Art for city- and landscape shots during a short walk in the harbor area.

Early morning hours to visit the spot where the Short-eared Owls are. I was trying to grab a nice picture having one of the owls in the sunrise light. While being there I also took some nice sunrise shots of the harbor area.
