Black And White Cat Again


There are not enough cat photos in the internet. No matter how much there are, there will be never enough. Above is a photo of my cat Shyna that I shot sometime in 2017. The colored photo looked fine, but I was a bit unhappy with the light in the room. The photo was pretty reddish due to the fact that I had my red window blinds shut. I think I would have uploaded the colored version, but somehow it looked much better in black and white. I really love black and white photography. Continue reading Black And White Cat Again

Pony


Here is a photo that I shot last year if I am right. I remember I was hiking somewhere outside of the city and found a very small farm with several ponies. One was curious and came closer to the fence. But with the tele lens I got even closer, so that it turned out like a good horse portrait. I didn’t really edit the photo a lot, it was just a bit dark that day, which is why I increased the exposure level a bit in Lightroom. I hope you like the photo. I have more photos of horses … Continue reading Pony

Black And White Cat


Above is a photo of my cat Shyna again. The original image had a couple of issues, and I disliked the colors in the photo. That’s when I often try out black and white filters. In this case it’s a mix of black and white, and a tiny bit of serpia. She does look a bit grumpy in the photo, does she? I can’t remember, but maybe she was tired or I shot so many photos that she found it annoying (laugh). Continue reading Black And White Cat

Beautiful Sky


I shot the photo above in 2016 and I probably didn’t upload it because I have way too many photos, and I can’t upload them at the same time. The photo was shot at 75mm and I was mainly interested to highlight the sunbeams that come down from the dark clouds. The original did look already pretty good, but I boosted the colors and levels a bit to make the sunbeams even pop out further. I also made the clouds a bit darker. I am pretty happy with the result. I hope you like the picture. Continue reading Beautiful Sky

Trying A Different Photography Niche


I’ve been bored today and it was very sunny outside, but way too hot in my living room. It was hot outside too, but not that hot. I wanted to walk outside, and after that I wanted to visit my mother. But today I didn’t want to leave the city, I wanted to try something new in photography. I had the idea already yesterday, I thought I need to take some photos of cars because I barely have some in my library. I thought it would be pretty easy. Just look for a car dealer in the city and take … Continue reading Trying A Different Photography Niche

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
