The Corona period had its moments. It was unbelievably crowded at the beach in Sahlenburg, so that I quickly left the place again. Two panoramas and a regular 16:9 picture are still left. All shots freehand with the Fuji X-T20 and the 18-55mm standard zoom.

Cuxhaven Holte-Spangen
From yesterday evening once again a video from Holte-Spangen. With sunsets and sunrises like this, the Mavic Mini camera will of course fail. This dynamic is a bit too much for the small sensor. This applies even more to the video recordings, where you can get even less out of them with post-processing (at least […]
Lightvessel Elbe 1
Yesterday in the early evening, a rainbow appeared over the Elbe in the direction of Brunsbüttel. The small Fuji is really good compared to the sensor size. Since it is very small, it is ideal for “just quickly” taking along.
At the “Alte Liebe”
Yesterday I made my first, halfway useable, hyperlapse at the “Alte Liebe” in Cuxhaven. The video was made from 250 shots, inserted forwards and backwards in the video, with the Fuji X-T20 and the 18-55mm lens with the help of a monopod.
Wheat…
Here are two somewhat abstract experiments on a wheat field. Both shots with the Nikon D850 and the Nikkor 24f/3.5 PCE. The first image is a multi-exposure of two shots, processed in Lightroom, Photoshop and finally in Silver Efex Pro. The second image, with similar processing, but only a single exposure.
Cuxhaven Holte-Spangen
A short flight west of Cuxhaven. On one side Cuxhaven in the back light and in the background … … on the other side you can still see Sahlenburg in the background above Holte-Spangen and the Küstenheiden nature reserve. It was slightly hazy, but already too late to have more ground fog on the pictures.
Fuji X
First attempt with the Fuji X-T20. The operating concept does not appeal to me as a Nikon user, but the camera is small, light and accordingly “just quickly taken along”. In the – unfair – comparison to the Nikon D850, but also to the much older D800, the image quality is – still – not […]
Cuxhaven water tower
Today’s evening shot with the modified Nikon D80, Nikkor 16-85 and the Hoya R72 Infrared, converted to black/white
Cuxhaven Küstenheiden
Yesterday there were great cloud formations in the blue sky. In the Küstenheiden National Reserve they were especially good on the horizon. While the D2x made a timelapse, I had enough time to take some pictures. First with the Nikon D80, the Nikkor 16-85 and the Hoya 720nm filter some infrared images. Later I took […]
Mein Schiff 3
It was far too late to remember that Mein Schiff 3 had docked in Cuxhaven to bring ashore the crew members who had been stuck on the cruise ship for months due to the Corona pandemic. At least this morning we went to the harbour area for some quick shots. But strong wind prevented us […]
