I was looking (again) for some Northern Lights, but wasn’t lucky with that. While waiting, I took some pictures of the Kugelbake monument with the stars above. Definitely a shot I will do another time with some better conditions. The shot was taken with the D850 and the Zeiss 18/f3.5.

Early Morning
Early morning hours in three locations. On my way to a breakfast appointment, I started 2h earlier and went to three locations. First stop was at the Midlum windmill. As the sky didn’t have any clouds, the location didn’t work well today. However, one panorama image has survived the bin. Next stop was at another […]
Beautiful sunset evening
I had a wonderful session yesterday evening at Obereversand. The sky looked promising and in the end not as disappointing than last time I was there for the lunar eclipse. I did several shots including HDRs and Panoramas. Two to share for the moment…
Lunar eclipse
I had already my doubts when weather forecast was showing clouds coming in from the north over the northern part of Germany. Anyways, I got up at 4:15 to drive to the lighthouse in Dorum-Neufeld for some shots of the eclipse. I arrived shortly after 5:15 having another 30 minutes until the total eclipse should […]
Klimahaus Bremerhaven 8° Ost
A classic shot of the Klimahaus, however, it was muddy and raining and very strong wind. Therefore the boats in front of the building are blurred heavily and the mood wasn’t great 😉 Three shots with the D850 using the Nikkor 24/f3.5 PC-E in portrait mode .
Early evening over the wadden sea
After long weeks without good weather, yesterday’s sky looked promising. I took the opportunity and went to the wadden sea in Sahlenburg, where I was able to get the below panorama image (2 images stacked vertically).
Scoop mill Honigfleth
I had already picked out the mill – in its origin from 16th century – some time ago. Yesterday we had a look at the object. To take photos, the place is rather less suitable, because it is teeming with modern windmills and electricity pylons, no matter from which direction.
Buseu 2018
Another trip to the Pyrenees for some vulture shooting. As in 2012, we had 2 days with a vulture feeding session seeing Griffon Vultures, Black Vultures and – of course – several Lämmergeier. Furthermore we had a session for a Golden Eagle pair on the third day. Haven’t worked out all my pictures I took, […]
Sunrise @ Kugelbake
It has been a while since I was doing some shots at sunrise at Kugelbake. So, quite a pleasing morning although too many low clouds hindered the red coming more through.
Lunar eclipse
After a week without Internet I can finally share my picture which was taken during the lunar eclipse from last week’s Saturday. Unfortunately the moon became visible quite late and therefore it was impossible to do the picture I was aiming for which was to have the moon on the left side of the monument. […]
