Last night I photographed the emission nebula NGC 281 (Pacman Nebula) with the Skywatcher Evostar. Originally I planned to take 50 single images, but later clouds came up and so there were only 22 usable images. Aufnahmedaten

Kugelbake in the early morning
Well, it’s been a while since I went to the Kugelbake at an early hour. But today it was worth it. Since we had draining water, there were also not quite as many ships on the way. A timelapse was also created in the process.
Fraunhofer Institute
During the bike ride across the Luneplate to Geestemünde, the building of the Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy Systems caught my eye. That would certainly be a nice object for architectural photography, I thought to myself. Thought, done, today in the morning I went there again. On Sundays it is always nice and quiet in […]
Luneplate to Geestemünde
Today we went by bike from the Luneplate via the fishing port to the mouth of the river Geeste. Actually, the first work on the lighthouse should begin in the afternoon. However, nothing happened yet. At least the people of Bremerhaven made sure to get many visitors to their city. This worked well; the parking […]
Lighthouse Geestemole North
Today there was sad news. Fitting for the Maritime Week 2022 in Bremerhaven, the substructure of the pier of the Geestemole Nord beacon has sunk. Although known for years, it has actually interested no one. If and when the listed tower will be rebuilt, nobody knows at the moment. Of course, no one is […]
Perseids V
At the end of this year’s Perseids sessions two more images from August 13th. The first one, this time in format 4:5 (portrait mode), was taken with the Fuji X-T3. It shows a Perseid between the Pleiades and the planet Mars. And here is also a picture with the startrails to the X-T3 session. […]
Perseids IV
In the night from August 12 to 13, that is at the peak of the Perseids, we were lucky to have clear skies. With temperatures of at least 17°C conditions prevailed that made it possible to spend the night outside. Unfortunately we had also full moon exactly in this night, which strongly impaired the brightness […]
Perseids III
Last night I went out again to make another attempt with images of the Perseids. This time it was much more successful concerning the quantity. However, there was no Perseids as bright as last night. The shots were then merged into a single image using PS. This time I used the Fuji GFx with the […]
Perseids II
Letzte Nacht habe ich mich noch einmal an den Perseiden versucht. Zunächst bin ich vor Mitternacht nach Altenbruch gefahren. Wiederum gelangte nur eine Perseide auf den Sensor. Sehr hell, hatte ich diese bereits während des Fotografierens gesehen. Danach bin ich – da es zusätzlich noch eine Polarlichtvorhersage gab – noch zur Alten Liebe gefahren. […]
Perseids
In the night from Saturday to Sunday I had set up my Nikon D500 with the Samyang 135mm and photographed the radiant of the Perseids between 11 pm and about 4 am. Unfortunately, I was only able to capture one Perseid on the sensor in the entire 5 hours. OK, the peak is around August […]
