In the past years I always used the Feisol CT3442 for landscape photography. The most annoying thing about that tripod was that it wasn’t the rapid version and I often messed up with the legs when unfolding it. Because of that and as I was looking for a solid mount also to be used with […]

Ich habe die Bilder vom späten Nachmittag der letzten US-Reise völlig vergessen. Einige schöne Aufnahmen des Weißkopfseeadler-Nestes, in dem der erwachsene Vogel sitzt.

Nikon available telezoom lenses
Data gathered with users from a photo bulletin board in Germany some time ago, showing the current available telezoom lenses with Nikon mount.
New layout for wordpress
Changed the layout of this site to a more straight forward one that also allows to customize more. Now I am using the evolve theme by Theme4Press.
Polder Glies
Not a lot of action at Polder Glies but at least I was able to shoot my first cuckoo ever. The little Barn Swallow wasn’t scared and sat at the look out so I had to move backwards to get into shooting distance.
Seafowl in Cappel-Neufeld
Early morning quick stop in Cappel-Neufeld for some Oystercatchers. Unfortunately not the promised weather. Nevertheless two shots worth to keep as they show a very calm sea.
Helgoland
Tagesausflug nach Helgoland. Die beiden 150-600 Objektive und das Nikkor 200-400 wurden zusammen mit der D7200 und D4 für mehrere Aufnahmen verwendet. Hauptsächlich für Nahaufnahmen und Aufnahmen im Flug. Mehr Helgoland-Bilder von dieser Reise gibt es, wenn man auf eines der Bilder klickt, das einen zur SmugMug-Galerie führt.

Very cloudy weather in the afternoon and not good light. Anyway trying out the Osprey and Bald Eagle spot. One of the Bald Eagles from Hamden nest was also close to the Osprey nest, flying at the other side of the lake. Two in-flight scenes left from the visit. Both Ospreys flew suddenly off and […]

Some shots of the Ospreys from one of the docks. Unfortunately the one on the pole didn’t want to move out.
