Two and a half year ago, after my new photo adventure just has begun, I took this shot. One of my first HDR image and I still like it. I used only Photomatix and some color correction in Lightroom.

During my journey thru the Yellowstone National Park, I saw this grazing buffalo. This poor guy must have a really hard day. Carrying around these lazy birds. Good for the birds, there was no ranger near, else they would be in heavy trouble …

The stars a planet and the moon

Last year afte a long night of pleiades watching, I was allready on my way home, down the hill.

But with the humidity it looks bigger and softer than it is. Also the bright star below the moon, which isn’t a star it is our neighbour planet venus.
