Flying Greylag Goose

Dennis

I found this flying greylag goose (Anser anser) during my walk through the Schellbruch reserve. The goose flew by far away and that was not really a perfect situation for my 18-105mm kit lens. So, I had to crop the images heavily and I also had to bump up the noise reduction in Lightroom to remove pixels and noise, sadly for the cost of sharpness. Anyway, you can get some interesting results with a kit lens and I still would not suggest to skip the kit lens when you purchase a DSLR camera, because for me as a beginner it … Continue reading Flying Greylag Goose

14 Miles Hike For Photography, Discovering The Schellbruch

Dennis

We have a natural reserve outside of Lübeck that is called Schellbruch. There are brakish water lagoons, bodies of freshwater, forest areas, mires and meadows. The trave river flows there to the east in the direction of the not too far away baltic sea. A beautiful place! Not only the geological variety makes the area special, there is also biological variety. There are many rare plants and it’s a paradise for birds. There are over 200 different bird species counted and it’s said that 90 have already bred. It explains why it’s worthy of protection. The Schellbruch is a protected … Continue reading 14 Miles Hike For Photography, Discovering The Schellbruch

Yet Another Trave River Photo

Dennis

I guess there are several Trave river photos on my blog. Here is a new one that I shot weeks ago. Yes, the weather is still bad here, which means I can only revert to photos that I shot a while ago and that I didn’t upload yet. I like to wander near the Trave river in Lübeck, many people do, it’s understandable because it’s a place where people go walking or do sports if they don’t want to hear the noise of the streets. The river is long and the area is rich in variety. It’s a place where … Continue reading Yet Another Trave River Photo

Bad Summer Weather

Dennis

This here is less of a photo post, which means it is not a photo that is special or so. However, it shows very well how the majority of summer days this year look like in Northern Germany. I wish I could get more out to take photos, although I have still plenty of photos that I didn’t upload yet. But wandering with the camera is so much fun, it’s just that I don’t want to risk it too often with the new camera. I have a camera bag, but it’s not the best bag for rain protection. Using the … Continue reading Bad Summer Weather

A Cat I Saw In The Gardens

Dennis

I was wandering along the trails where all the garden are to find new photo subjects. Then I saw a bicolor cat in one of the gardens. This bicolored cat was not really shy, came through the garden fence and stopped in front of me to say hello. The cat was also pretty chatty and it was cute to hear all the miaou. The cat might have noticed the smell of Shyna on my clothes, who knows. It’s also interesting that it was a black and white cat as well. I have some more photos… Continue reading A Cat I Saw In The Gardens
