Forest Flowers

Dennis

Here is a photo that I shot last year when I hiked through one of the small forests in Reinfeld. I liked it there when spring started, it was so relaxing to walk through the small forest areas and seeing all the things grow. I did also like the winter there, but the spring was definitely more interesting. However, I took tons of photos in both seasons. I think I will hike there again this year, it’s just sad that I can’t do this every day now that I am back in the city since quite some time, because the … Continue reading Forest Flowers

The Elysium Realmlist And The Elysium Realm Status

Dennis

If you are interested to play on the Elysium Project realms but you are not sure which realm to choose, you might want to check the realm status first. Same counts if you just want to get more detailed data about the realm population.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Ambience

The recent WordPress Photo Challenge is about ambience, and I thought one of the photos that I shot during a hike through the Schellbruch area in Lübeck would fit. I shot the photo during golden hour time and everything appeared orange and red. But to be honest, I even boosted this a bit further with Lightroom and Color Efex Pro 4. It almost looks as if someone painted it, but I like that. Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Ambience

House Sparrow

Dennis

Here is a photo of a house sparrow that I shot during a hike in Bad Schwartau, a town that is smaller and more rural. I found a lot of sparrows on my way, there are much more in rural areas. I did already take several pictures of sparrows in the past, but this time I am actually not that sure if the bird in the picture is a female or male sparrow. However, it’s definitely a sparrow, that’s enough to know to tag this photo correctly for my blog. I hope you liked this photo. Continue reading House Sparrow

Lonely Robin

Dennis

Here is a photo of a robin and it always looks like a backlit photograph. The bird and tree branches became so dark because my ISO was set too low for the cloudy day, but in this case I do really love the result, because as said, it looks like a backlight photograph. I expected it would be a robin bird, but to me sure I raised the shadow details for a moment and saw “Yep, it’s a robin” and decreased it again as I wanted to preserve the backlight effect. You can find more photos of robins on my … Continue reading Lonely Robin
