The Bridge


I can’t tell you how often I walked over the footbridge in the image above. It must have been hundreds of times. Around the time when me and my friends were 20 years old, we did party hard. Every weekend and I don’t think we skipped one. We usually started at someones home, getting a couple of drinks but later we always went into a club. It was important to get to a decent level of drunkenness before we went into the club, because from that point on drinks would cost a lot more. So, it started at someones home, … Continue reading The Bridge

Black And White Kitty Photo


I’ve been silent for the past two weeks. I had a lot of other things going on in life and weather got better again too. We had the first spring days, and I like it when you can feel the first warm sunbeams in your neck after the winter. I did a lot of things together with my friends during the first warm days. It felt great to take a break from blogging. I wouldn’t say that I am back with new ideas, but I continue to do what I always have done. I show you a picture and share … Continue reading Black And White Kitty Photo

Wasp


Here is a photo that I took some time ago in our garden. I noticed a wasp on a wooden beam and thought I take the photo. I took a lot of inscent photos back then when I was still using my point and shoot camera. That worked quite well back then because it had some kind of pseudo-macro mode. It’s a lot more difficult with my DSLR due to the focus distance limits and I didn’t invest into a macro lens yet. Maybe I do in the future because I am interested, although it’s nowhere at the top of … Continue reading Wasp

Fishing Near A Bridge


Time flies, the photo above was taken at the beginning of 2015. That was just a few months after I got my first DSLR camera. So, I was still practicing and not quite sure what makes a good scene. But to be honest, I find the scene in the image quite interesting. I do just think that the bridge is a bit too intrusive. Maybe I would have shot the image from a better angle today, but that’s what photography is about, experimenting, discovering, improving and getting your own style. The person on the right was quite blurry and it … Continue reading Fishing Near A Bridge

Blogging: Own Thoughts, Own Photos


Going through my photo library, I found the close-up photo you can see above. Not very special as a subject, but I like to take close-up photos. Also, do you know what a really good side effect of a photo blog is? I shot and uploaded so many photos, that I would in many cases always find a fitting photo for articles I plan to write on my blog. I actually mentioned this once in an article I called “Take Your Own Stock Images“. So, with the photo above it’s the same. If I ever write about anything related to … Continue reading Blogging: Own Thoughts, Own Photos
