Finally once again a strong wind in Cuxhaven. Not quite as strong as last time, but at least something. In addition good weather and high tide at the right time. What else do you need? The good weather then also called many Cuxhavener and tourists to see the spectacle at close range. It was nearly […]

Everything around my hometown and the Cuxland
Sunrise at the Kugelbake monument
Perseids
Last night the sky was finally a little clear again and I had the opportunity to see and photograph some shooting stars from the Perseids. Unfortunately after midnight clouds came up again and it became denser and denser. Around 1 o’clock I stopped the session. But so far I am completely satisfied.

Neuwerk

NLCs over the Northern Sea
Actually, I wanted to photograph the Milky Way. At full moon and ground fog a very bad idea. Nevertheless it was a successful night, because I was able to photograph the probably last NLCs for this year. Okay, Milky Way wasn’t, but the location’s probably pretty good for that. Next week the moon will not […]
