Cows on the mountain
Posted on Februar 20th, 2014
Like mostly we were too late and missed the sunset. On this hike I was testing my brandnew outdoor equipment, tent, sleeping bag and backpack. Damn was the mountain steep and the equipment heavy I was short before a heart attack and I could use my tongue as a tie!
On the half way up, we saw the lake and the last sunset glow at the sky, so we stopped for a photo session, probably this saved my life. The cows in the front are a really nice eye candy, but the couldn’t sit still and I get only blurred cows. But all together I like this image, because there is everything on it: animals, a lake, sunset, mountains and the stars.
The sun and the rain
Posted on Februar 7th, 2014
After another week of grey weather, I need more color in my life. So I poked in my archive and found this wonderfull spring image.
It was a rainy day and I came home from our weekly food shopping, as the clouds unexpected moved away and the sun spent her light over the landscape. I let my wife alone with all the shopping parts and run up to the nearly hill. And I was right there before the sun was away and could take this breathtaking photo.
I needed 7 images with 2ev steps to get the full dynamic in this scenery.
Blade of grass the 2nd
Posted on Februar 3rd, 2014
Another day another blade of grass. Or maybe it’s the same, who knows… but this time the sun is still on the sky. The only shadow I had was this single blade. The whims were chirping and the vulture were already circling about my head. Hm, okay, we don’t have vultures here in this region maybe there were some other birds or no birds circling, I don’t know anymore
Homeland

It was a cold winter day and short before the sun disappeared. And I was to the right time at the right place, to take this beautiful winter sunset. The sunset in cold winter days are not so colorful as in other seasons. But look at the wonderful pastel colors in the sky. Isn’t that awesome, isn’t it? So every season has its own charme, to get great images. You have just to do it!
The smoky moon
Posted on Januar 13th, 2014
The sun was allready down and the stars visible, as I shoot this photo. But something’s strange on the image. Either the moon is burning or there is a doomsday meteor in the sky. The fact we are still here, excludes the 2nd possibility. But why is there smoke at the moon, I thought it couldn’t be smoke in the space without air. Or maybe they are right and there is also no space and the technicians fixed the problem with the fire. And yes, I think there are now more dark spots on the moon…
Weinheim at sunset
Posted on Januar 7th, 2014
One year ago, me and my wife were invited to a wedding in the beautiful small town, called Weinheim near Frankfurt in Germany. Of course I was photographing this event :). At the day before, after our arrival, I saw this nice alley with the restaurant and I couldn’t resist to take a photo of it. The sun was allready deep in the sky and send her colorful light to this scenery.
I took a bracked series of 3 images with 2EV steps, for this hdr shot.
