Mice Meeting

April 1, 2015April 1, 2015 Dennis

Above you can see two mice of my half-brother. We took the photo last summer when we did let them play on the lawn. We had to be very careful that they don’t run away. But even if they are fast runners, they were not that fast outside due to the fuzzy grass and probably also because they are not that experienced like a mouse that lives in this habitat. Anyway, that doesn’t mean that they didn’t try to check out the whole lawn. We had to be careful anyway. Continue reading Mice Meeting

Beautiful Plant

April 1, 2015 Dennis

Still fighting with the amount of photos I took over the years. Above you can see one photo I took last year. I saw this plant in a garden and took a photo. I like how the flower of the plant looks like. Especially the green pattern on the white leave. That looks cool anyhow. However, I did cheat a little bit and darkened all shadow areas even further to get the flower into focus, and I did push the green colours a lot with Lightroom. As this is a digital camera photo, I also had to reduce some noise … Continue reading Beautiful Plant

Looking Down To The Cat

March 31, 2015 Dennis

Time to add a new image to the Shyna photo collection. I think the photo above is pretty cute. I do also like the perspective as I look down to my cat and she looks up. I didn’t take photos often with this kind of perspective. I took the photo two weeks ago. I still have some other interesting photos of this set, I will upload them too eventually. Continue reading Looking Down To The Cat

Shake Hands Kitty

March 12, 2015March 12, 2015 Dennis

Not much new stories to tell, I’ve been quite busy with some bureaucratic stuff over the last days. You know, annoying paperwork and so. Apart from that, we had some really good days here and I would say we have the first signs of spring weather. The husband of my mother and me went to the garden last sunday and we saw first flowers and noticed the first warm sunbeams. I didn’t take much pictures that day, I maybe have some on my phone. But I have a new photo of Shyna for you as you can see above. With … Continue reading Shake Hands Kitty

My Disappointment About The Missing D7200 Tilt Screen

March 2, 2015March 2, 2015 Dennis

So, after the official Nikon D7200 announcement, it gets a little bit more complicated when I think about my purchase decision. As mentioned earlier, I basically have the budget for the D7100 but waited for the D7200 announcement as I think there are some missing features when it comes to the D7100. I assumed that the D7200 will be released with the missing features. I was partly right, because the D7200 will come with built-in WiFi and NFC. However, I expected that the D7200 will come with another nifty upgrade, a tilt screen, but I was wrong. As mentioned in … Continue reading My Disappointment About The Missing D7200 Tilt Screen

DSLR Camera D7200 Officially Announced By Nikon

March 2, 2015March 2, 2015 Dennis

There have been all kind of rumors about the D7200, but now it’s official, Nikon announced the D7200 camera, the D7100 successor. The D7200 release date and shipping starts in April and the body only will cost around $1,199.95 as you can find out on the D7200 product page. That means the D7200 will cost around $200 more than the D7100, however, you probably can expect that the price of the D7100 will decrease a little bit in April when the D7200 is shipping. The D7200 comes with built-in WiFi and NFC, that means you don’t have to buy an … Continue reading DSLR Camera D7200 Officially Announced By Nikon
