This Cat Is Not Impressed


I had to laugh about this photo when I downloaded it from my camera. On this photo Shyna looks like if she would think “I´m not impressed that you want to take photos of me again!”. I simply had to search for a “Camera Forbidden” sign or texture as I thought it would fit so well. I found one and added the sticker with Photoshop to the carton that she captured after I received a product that I ordered in the internet. Hope this made you laugh too. By the way, talking about stickers and textures again, I can suggest … Continue reading This Cat Is Not Impressed

Just One of Many Bridges In Lübeck


Above you can see one of many bridges of Lübeck and the Trave River that I mentioned quite often here on my blog. The image was pretty overexposed and I fixed this at least a little bit. I removed a lot of highlights but it didn´t make me happy so that I decided to add a black and white gradient map to get a slightly monochrome image. If nothing goes when we talk about overexposure, it´s sometimes a good idea to change the image to black and white. The overexposed areas are then less noticeable in my opinion or at … Continue reading Just One of Many Bridges In Lübeck

Fly On The Wall


I shot the image some days ago with my point and shoot camera but I had some luck because the fly on the wall didn´t react well when I came closer with my camera. Not sure what was wrong with this fly because they do usually escape if you are too close and you know what kind of reaction they have. But this fly was very slow maybe ill, so that I was able to take this close-up shot with my digital camera. I like this image anyhow. It´s a good one for my insects photo collection.

Grilled Wienerwürstchen


Above you can see a sausage that we call “Wiener Würstchen” here in Germany and I think the English name is “Vienna sausage”. You can eat this sausage raw but usually people boil it and this is tasty too. But even as a German, it was new to me that some Germans do actually grill this sausage. The husband of my mother was born in East Germany and he told me that they usually did grill the “Wiener Würstchen”. I didn´t know how it would taste like but he is right, it´s fantastic and delicious too if it´s grilled. If … Continue reading Grilled Wienerwürstchen

Shyna And The New York Yankees Cap


Usually it´s so that my cat Shyna annoys me and not the other way around. For example if I work on the computer, she sometimes bugs me and meows until I give up to work on the computer and spend time with her. I´d say this does not happen always but often! Well, she is very attached to me but over the time she also learned that I can´t keep her busy for 24 hours. But as said, sometimes she won´t accept it and then she will bug me until I spend time with her. Yesterday, it was the other … Continue reading Shyna And The New York Yankees Cap
