Letzte Nacht habe ich mich noch einmal an den Perseiden versucht. Zunächst bin ich vor Mitternacht nach Altenbruch gefahren. Wiederum gelangte nur eine Perseide auf den Sensor. Sehr hell, hatte ich diese bereits während des Fotografierens gesehen. Danach bin ich – da es zusätzlich noch eine Polarlichtvorhersage gab – noch zur Alten Liebe gefahren. […]

Perseids
In the night from Saturday to Sunday I had set up my Nikon D500 with the Samyang 135mm and photographed the radiant of the Perseids between 11 pm and about 4 am. Unfortunately, I was only able to capture one Perseid on the sensor in the entire 5 hours. OK, the peak is around August […]

Grimmershörn at night

Ein Jahr warten…
Over a year ago I had planned to photograph the lighthouse in Altenbruch at moonrise with telephoto lens. For the admission was thought to have the full moon close to the lighthouse to have then with the largest possible focal length a moon on the picture which corresponds in the diameter approximately to the width […]
