Broken Glass

Dennis

Broken, that is the motto of the recent Weekly Photo Challenge. I’d say there couldn’t be a better motto, because it’s just a week ago when I noticed a broken window glass in the stairways of the apartment complex where my grandma and grandpa live. I had my camera with me and shot a photo. Of course, we all dislike broken things, but broken glass can actually look pretty beautiful seen from the artistic perspective, but with that said I would now also call the landlord to fix it if I would live there. Anyway, I somewhat like the geometry … Continue reading Broken Glass

Squirrels, Masters of Balance

Dennis

With this post I want to show you some other photos of the same squirrel I uploaded some days ago. I prefer to upload the most funny photos of a set later, so, with this post you see the last photos of that squirrel. In the other post the squirrel was on the ground, but some seconds later it jumped on a fence and I had to react immediately. Although I discovered already many advanced settings of my D7100, situations come up where you don’t have time to adjust anything. At some point I will probably learn to do this … Continue reading Squirrels, Masters of Balance

Squirrel Undercover

Dennis

Taking a photo of a squirrel, that was something I always wanted to do. They are like undercover agents, they operate in the hidden and do only come out to show you that they also could get a job in a circus. Jumping from tree to tree, climbing all verticals, crazy little acrobats. Running through the undergrowth taking all obstacles. They are not only little champions, they are also cute. I never had luck to get a decent photo of a squirrel with my point and shoot or smartphone camera. Now with the DSLR and faster shutter speed, the chance … Continue reading Squirrel Undercover

Blossom On A Tree Trunk

Dennis

Just a photo I shot in the garden this evening. Saw the blossom on one of the tree trunks and thought it would be cool for a photo. At home I noticed that the image was pretty noisy, but I could fix that at least a little bit with Lightroom. But with the noise reduction the image gets a little bit blurry. Anyway, for a snapshot it’s not bad, I like the blossom on the trunk. Continue reading Blossom On A Tree Trunk

New Resident In The Garden

Dennis

Apart from the chickens, the husband of my mother also got a rooster from a farm now. Today I was in the garden and saw all the poultry, they are funny. It was a cloudy day and not really the best weather to take photos handheld. Apart from that, I do think that the poultry doesn’t look very photogenic yet, it will take some time until they replaced the feathers. Anyway, I might show some photos of the chickens too if I find some good images in my folder. Talking about the rooster again, the husband of my mother got … Continue reading New Resident In The Garden
