Dark Horse


I do always take photos of horses if I see some. They are beautiful, like all animals. To be honest, if I would win the lottery, I would probably get myself a horse too. When I hike through small forest areas, I often see people riding their horses through the forest. This must be relaxing. Talking about the photo again, I am wondering if it is normal that you can see the rips of the horse. I am no horse expert. Is the horse ill or is it just a very skinny horse? I still think the horse is very … Continue reading Dark Horse

Yellow Butterfly


I found the butterfly in the picture above a few days ago on the way during my hike. This is pretty much a pseudo-macro-shot because I used my Tamron 70-300mm lens to get the photo. Also I cropped the image a bit to get even closer. I find the yellow butterfly very beautiful, but there have been more than one, because the blossoms seemed to attract many of them. That’s always a great nature spectacle. I like to watch these small creatures. Here are more photos of insects. Continue reading Yellow Butterfly

Beautiful Path


Some of you know that I like to take photos of paths. The subject is not special, because you just take the photo on the way you go, but what I like is that there are tons of different possibilities how paths can look like. I don’t take these photos randomly, I take them when I think “I find it beautiful where I stand right now”. These photos also remind me of special hikes that I did. In fact when I look at the picture in this post, it reminds me of the sound of birds, the smell of meadows … Continue reading Beautiful Path

Thatched Roof


Above is a photo that I shot during a hike near the Wakenitz, a tributary of the Trave River. I like that area because it’s possible to find grey herons and other birds there, but I didn’t have a lot of luck in this area with my Tamron 70-300mm lens. But I still like to walk there, because it’s a beautiful area. So, on my way I found this large house with a thatched roof. Since I was not happy with the original photo, I edited it and came up with the result above. It looks a bit like it … Continue reading Thatched Roof

Beautiful Blossoms


I don’t know when and where exactly I took this photo, but I thought it looks beautiful and I want to have this in my personal online library of photos. As always when I upload a flowery photo, I have no idea what kind of plant this is. I find it much more difficult to research about plants than let’s say animals or birds. I hope you like this photo and if you are new to the blog, check out my photography portfolio if you are in the mood to take a look at photos. Continue reading Beautiful Blossoms
