Tree Trunk Leaves


Here is a close-up shot of some leaves that are growing out of a tree trunk. I was hiking through the Riesebusch forest in Bad Schwartau yesterday, to see if I could find any interesting subjects in this rather grey season. I didn’t find a lot of things, but I liked the scene with the leaves that grow out of the trunk. The hike was still interesting, I did yet again meet interesting people. I talked with an older man, he told me that he was ranger before he retired. He saw my camera and said that he would be … Continue reading Tree Trunk Leaves

Elysium Project: Update About The Fresh Start Realm


The WoW private server host Elysium-Project will launch the old Nostalrius PvP and PvE realms on December 17, to be more clear around 12pm noon Eastern US Time or 4pm in UK as I wrote previously. They will also launch fresh realm where everyone has to start at Level 1 and many people are waiting for this one to launch.

Mall Christmas Decoration


Here is a photo that I shot in a local mall. It was rather a random shot, but I like how the photo turned out. It’s maybe more abstract, or as said, just random. But I liked how the Christmas decoration was hanging down, and the windows in the background at the ceiling. I actually tested to focus on the lights, but then I did focus on the ceiling and liked it more. I do have a Christmas category since some time, but I never uploaded much photos to it. I can see that this category might be more filled … Continue reading Mall Christmas Decoration

Cringeworthy Scam Attempts


Scam emails are always cringeworthy and amusing. So, recently there are more and more scammers targeting domain owners. Seriously, that’s hilarious! Who is doing that? I mean, you must be an idiot if you think a webmaster would fall for a scam email. Whoever is sending out these emails, it must be an extremely dim person, or I am wrong and some people really fall for it. Most often I don’t even get scam emails as they land in the spam folder, but sometimes a few come through but I delete them right away, unless they are way too funny. … Continue reading Cringeworthy Scam Attempts

Shopping Mall Christmas Decoration


I like Christmas decoration. Now with the 50mm f/1.8g lens, that is even more interesting. I can take pictures of Christmas lights with bokeh, I find that very beautiful. I assume I will do this quite often in the future until I maybe get bored with the bokeh. But for now this is really interesting as I couldn’t do this well with my other lenses. Together with my mother, I was shopping in a mall today, and there was all kind of Christmas decoration. That was a great place to play with my lens.
