Abandoned House
I am not sure why, but I like old things like abandoned houses. I converted the photo of this abandoned house to black and white, that’s how I liked the image more. I didn’t upload a lot of photos to my abandoned category, but I still have several photos of abandoned places in my library. Over time I will also fill this category of my blog with photos.

Common Blackbird Picture
I did already upload several common blackbird photos to my blog, but here is another one. I really didn’t like the highlights in the background, which is why I partly reduced vibrance and highlights. I did also decrease saturation of the blue colour to make the heaven highlights in the background even less apparent. Then I used the adjustment brush to reduce the contrast, exposure and saturation on the tree branch to shift the focus away from it. For the bird I used another adjustment brush to brighten the plumage and to show a little bit of detail. As I … Continue reading Common Blackbird Picture
There Is A 50mm Prime Lens On My Radar
I have chosen a photo for this post that I shot at 50mm with my Nikon 18-105mm kit lens. Taking a look into my Lightroom library, it’s clear I didn’t take a lot of photos at 50mm. This is no surprise due to the fact that I did spend most of my time in a village this year where it was quite easy to find beautiful birds, that’s why I purchased a 70-300mm lens at the beginning of this year. I’ve not been completely happy with the image quality of my tele lens, but still it amazed me to have … Continue reading There Is A 50mm Prime Lens On My Radar
Black And White Kitty Photo
Just throwing in another photo of my cat Shyna. Found this one in my Lightroom library, and I really like the unusual perspective. But I didn’t like the photo in colour and changed it to black and white. Of course, that always fits with a black and white cat as the subject. But to be honest, cats are always beautiful, and you can’t do anything wrong when you want to take pictures of them. I hope you like this photo, check out my other cat photos and stories.

Short Acoustic Guitar Improvisation: Bang Bang – Nancy Sinatra (Pulp Fiction)
I noticed that it’s been a while since I uploaded a guitar video. I don’t record myself often when I play the guitar, but it’s mainly because I dislike video editing and the time-consuming video uploading. It’s also funny that I know my camera for photography already very well, but I know the camera video features less well, except that I know how to just press the record button (laugh). Yeah, let’s face it, I am not a good videographer, and my YouTube channel is evidence enough. Also it’s been a while since I touched my acoustic guitar, because I … Continue reading Short Acoustic Guitar Improvisation: Bang Bang – Nancy Sinatra (Pulp Fiction)
Handheld Night Photography Try
Here is a photo that I shot handheld at night. It’s funny, I have a very cool Manfrotto tripod and recently I did even purchase a cool tripod bag, but yet I am still too lazy to carry the stuff out there to take some cool night photographs. The photo in this post was shot without tripod, because as said, I am way too lazy to take the tripod with me. I shot the photo with manual settings as I wanted to try out if it’s possible at all. I did set the camera to ISO 1600 with aperture f4 … Continue reading Handheld Night Photography Try
