Beautiful Lamp

Dennis

Ok, when I am already at it uploading some photos with lights, here is another one. I am pretty sure I shot the photo when I got my 50mm lens and wanted to test it. I visited grandma and had my camera and the nifty fifty with me. There is always a beautiful decor in her apartment. She also likes Tiffany lamps and honestly, I find them beautiful as well. So, that was a reason too why I shot the photo. I just love how these lamps look like. Do like Tiffany lamps too? Continue reading Beautiful Lamp

Dragon Figure

Dennis

Sometimes I also try to find things at home that I can photograph. I own the dragon figure in the picture above since almost two decades, I got that thing in a shop that basically sold cheap “bells and whistles” or “Schnickschnack” as we would say in Germany when we talk about stores that sell decor and other things for a buck or two. And I don’t mean this on a negative way, you can find some cool things in these dollar stores. The name is maybe a bit wrong in our case since we don’t trade with dollars, but … Continue reading Dragon Figure

Beautiful Porcelain Cat

Dennis

My grandma has this beautiful porcelain cat lying on her heater. I remember my mother had similar porcelain cats in the past. I’d like to have one of these too as decoration for my living room, but as I have a real cat this would probably not remain as one piece forever (laugh). But a white porcelain cat wouldn’t fit to the colors of my furniture anyway because my cupboards are mainly in walnut or to be more exact in mahogany color. It would need to be porcelain cat with darker color. Continue reading Beautiful Porcelain Cat

Shopping Mall Christmas Decoration

Dennis

I like Christmas decoration. Now with the 50mm f/1.8g lens, that is even more interesting. I can take pictures of Christmas lights with bokeh, I find that very beautiful. I assume I will do this quite often in the future until I maybe get bored with the bokeh. But for now this is really interesting as I couldn’t do this well with my other lenses. Together with my mother, I was shopping in a mall today, and there was all kind of Christmas decoration. That was a great place to play with my lens.

Yet Another Garden Gnome

Dennis

Found this guy in the garden of my mother and her husband. There are still some remains of the former garden owners. Although, it´s not unusual to find garden gnomes in a German garden, it would rather be a wonder if you wouldn´t find one in a Garden here. I posted already a photo of garden gnomes some time ago. My mother does have some garden gnomes on her balcony. Well, as said, they are everywhere in Germany. It´s a typical German phenomenon I believe, or let me say that I am at least not sure if they are so … Continue reading Yet Another Garden Gnome
