A stroll through the natural reserve


Again, a picture taken on the stroll through the natural reserve on the Darss. It's funny, whenever I try to take such a picture with my digital camera or a SLR camera, they never have the actual feel of this sunstrewn coniferous forest. However, my cheap little Lomo Fisheye No. 2 (70€) captures the feel perfectly. It is definitly "my" camera.

Have a wonderful Sunday and a good start into the next week.

Wolkenburg Church - a few details


The church as whole, including parking space.






A few weeks back I went with my parents and my Grandpa to "Wolkenburg" (Cloudcastle) in Saxony, where my Grandpas parents had lived in the 1950s. Wolkenburg is a sweet village with an old castle (over 800 years) and a really beautiful church St. Mauritius. Since I had awesome light I took tons of pictures. And here are a few pictures of it. My Dad got annoyed over me taking my sweet time with the photography, even though he had told me earlier that day, that I should make an exhibition.

Enjoy your Friday everone.

Again, all photographies you can buy via my DaWanda-Shop. Just tell me in my newest post here, which one you want and I'll put it up on DaWanda

Against and along


Against the sun and along the stem. As you probably have realized by now I love to take pictures in sun direction, somehow these photos are always special. And the Lomo Fisheye 2 give the picture always the certain thing, that a digital or even a normal analogue camera can't (believe me I've tried with my exa1a, with my Nikon F90, with my Ixus and with my Dads Nikon F75, they were never as good as the Lomos photos). Which is surprising, well, at least it is to me.

When I showed my Mom proudly one of my last developed films with totally awesome pictures (Chris said so too), my Mom just said that I shouldn't take pictures in sun direction anymore, since the foreground is often too dark to see details. It took me a lot of my superhuman strength to not bang my head several times on the next available wall. Yep, my mom is really supportive when it comes to my photography and art. (The stuff that drips from the last sentence is sarcasm, should you wonder.) My Dad really likes my photography and says so, he even stated that I should do an exhibition!!! And he supports me sporadically with bringing me some fresh films or lending me his Nikon F75 (as much as I love my Nikon F90, it's too heavy. I wonder if Nikon thought that the F90 would only used by bodybuilders?!)

Leipzig at Night series - The open gate


Way back in last August Chris and I were doing our nightshots in Leipzig, and we had tons of fun during these few hours. This is one of the few pictures taken with the Lomo that worked out. Since I can't screw the Lomo Fisheye 2 on a tripod, I always need to find something to steady it on for long exposures. In this case I took the wall.
