Weekly Photo Challenge: Intricate

May 1, 2015May 1, 2015 Dennis

The recent Weekly Photo Challenge motto is called Intricate. This will probably make people post some crazy cool photos. It took me some time to find out what I could post, but then I reminded that I visited the St. Mary’s Church in Lübeck a week ago. Some of you know that I am not very religious, but I am very interested in the architecture of churches and I knew that I would find some interesting stuff if I would visit one of our churches in Lübeck. I also wanted to know how well my camera does take pictures handhold … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Intricate

Dear Cat Diary, Here Is Another Entry And Photo

May 1, 2015February 5, 2016 Dennis

As this blog is not only my own diary but also the diary of a cat, the diary of Shyna to be more clear, there shouldn’t be too much days without a new photo of her. The weather is too bad to get out with the camera, but I can use the time to upload some photos to Shyna’s cat diary. There is something new to tell. She is usually not a cat that brings toys if she wants to play, I rather had to guess what kind of toys she would like to play with, but recently she started … Continue reading Dear Cat Diary, Here Is Another Entry And Photo

Swimming Duck

Not enough photos of ducks? It’s pretty easy to take pictures of ducks, which means they are ideal to practice and to learn a new camera or to test the zoom of a lens. I shot several duck photos when I walked outside, I did upload already some, others will follow. Continue reading Swimming Duck

Growing Flower

May 1, 2015 Dennis

Here is a photo of a growing flower. I like how the stem looks so lonely. I do also like the depth of field in this photo. Not sure what kind of flower it will be, I found it in our garden. I can not get too close to plants with the kit lens, at some point I will really need a macro lens for close-up shots. Continue reading Growing Flower

Trave River Photo

May 1, 2015 Dennis

I think I have already quite a lot of Trave River photos on my blog. It’s a good place to walk. We have had some rainy days and todays weather is also not the best, so, I can just upload photos I took days and weeks ago as I am still afraid to use my new camera when it’s raining, although the camera should be weather sealed, but I my lens is not I guess. Here is one I shot one week ago while walking near the Trave River… Continue reading Trave River Photo

Extreme Dove Close-Up

April 27, 2015April 27, 2015 Dennis

Didn’t see enough bird photos? Here is another one! The doves in the city are usually not really afraid of humans as they are used to them. The dove on the photo came pretty close to me, I zoomed in with the lens and I also cropped the outer area of the image to make the photo appear even more like a close-up shot. I think this is one image that I really like. You can see lots of details in the feathering, I like that pretty much. From distance these doves looks boring due to the grey feathering, but … Continue reading Extreme Dove Close-Up
