Yesterday afternoon we made a trip to Bad Bederkesa. I did most of the subjects with both the Fuji X-T5 in color and the Nikon D5300 with the 680nm filter. So far, I had only the castle on my radar. Besides this, however, there is still more to discover. On the respective […]

Hemmoor
Short trip to Hemmoor and Osten. In Osten it started to rain, but westwards was still beautiful sunshine. With the car quickly drove to the bridge on the L495, hoping for a rainbow. That has already worked out quite well. A little too far in the direction of the northeast, but still nice. […]
Exclave
Yesterday afternoon we made a tour through the exclave of Bremerhaven. The Fehrmoor is very special. Through a narrow strip of land that belongs to Lower Saxony, one gets from Bremerhaven Leherheide to the Fehrmoor. The “Große Beek” is partly the border. Unfortunately, you can not make a complete circuit, because on the western […]
Magnificent view
Last night there was a large NLC display over the North Sea. Fantastic! At first, due to the twilight brightness, not so pronounced, this changed with increasing darkness, until it dan again became somewhat paler.
Rising thunderstorm
Yesterday evening I finally had the opportunity to photograph a thunderstorm. The direction was right, the number of lightning bolts in the forecast was right, and most importantly, it was timed so that it was not yet too dark. First timelapse with the position shown above. About 20:15 clock started and on […]
NLC over the North Sea

From about 23 o’clock the first light structures were visible. After midnight a nice display appeared over the North Sea. […]
Grimmershörn
From yesterday’s walk at (almost) high tide and wind from low pressure OTTO. The images shown were all taken with an orange filter (corresponding to about 590nm).

NLC over the North Sea
Yesterday evening, it had also already announced, the first really good NLC were to be seen from Cuxhaven. First for about 30 minutes a very unusual structure was visible in NNE. In this form I had not experienced this the last years. That alone was worth going out again late in the evening. A […]
Faint NLC over Grimmershörn
Yesterday evening the radar data were quite promising. However, the strong warm air coming from the south probably prevented a larger display. Nevertheless, at least in homeopathic dose a small success in this season.
