Another set of pictures from Cuxhaven’s landmark; this time using the Nikkor PC-E on my D7200. No sunrise, no sunset, just later the day. In the first image I tilted by about 4° down and shifted the lens up. Due to the tilt, the whole foreground was in focus – very nice. Exactly why I […]

New York City – Flatiron Building
An older image I took back in Summer 2012 when visiting NYC. I always had it in color but after converting to b/w, it really comes out nice. It is very well suited for print on a Baryta paper.
Cuxhaven – Alte Liebe (using the Nikkor PC-E)
First test of the Nikkor 24mm f3.5 PC-E. As I had only my D7200 available I did only 2 images one without any tilt or shift and another one using the shift for a panorama shot (portrait mode – three images).
Cuxhaven – Ruddy turnstone
Good but not brillant weather for another look at Cuxhaven’s Kugelbake area for some seafowl. Some Ruddy Turnstones around at the jetty. Shots were taken with the D500 and the Nikkor 200-400 (with and without TC-14).
Cuxhaven – Alte Liebe
Skyfire had a 60% chance of nice sunrise. However, that did not happen as I thought. Anyways some morning shots of the location using the D800 and the Zeiss 18mm lens.
Cuxhaven – Sahlenburg Timelapse
Short test of the Irix f2.4 on my D800. The result was not what I was looking for and what was stated on diverse websites. I sent it back next day. While I was testing the Irix 15mm f2.4 using my D800 I started the D7200 and it do a timelapse.
Bremerhaven – Lighthouse Geeste
Things sometimes get different than planned. The planned location where I wanted to take the shots from was closed to public and slightly left to that point (which would still have worked), a ship was moored. I took one testshot between the ship and the fence but that wasn’t the picture I was looking for. […]
Sunrise at Kugelbake
Early morning at Cuxhaven’s town landmark the Kugelbake. The weather forecast wasn’t really promising but it turned out to be a stunning sunrise. I used the D800 with the Samyang 135f2 and a polarizer for some decent shots while the sun was rising.
Cuxhaven – Alte Liebe
Early morning at the “Alte Liebe” in Cuxhaven. Short but somewhat nice sunrise time with just a small area where the sun was coming through the clouds.
Lighthouse “Kleiner Preusse”
Another set of sunset shots at the lighthouse. First time was spent to grab some impressions of the so called “Wremer Tief”, later a couple of shots of the lighthouse itself.
