I captured this photo of my cat while she was laying next to me on a pillow. I love how the focus is primarily on her eye, and the black and white effect makes her colorful eye pop even more. Enjoy!

Sunset, Eureka CA
I had to work along the north coast of California. It didn’t leave much time to photograph but I was able to capture this sunset just south of Eureka.
Ich musste an der Nordküste von Kalifornien arbeiten. Es blieb nicht viel Zeit zum Fotografieren, aber ich konnte diesen Sonnenuntergang südlich von Eureka einfangen.
Fall is Coming
After a long stretch of dangerously high temperatures it finally cooled down in Central California. Therefore I decided to look for first signs of Fall colors on my morning walk. Sure enough I found them.
About traveling
When you travel, you can meet a lot of people. But some never in person.
Ende des Sommers
Dieser schöne Blumenstrauss stand im Eingangsbereich des Klosters Isenhagen. Alle verwendeten Pflanzen gibt es so nur in der Übergangszeit zwischen Sommer und Herbst. Ich finde, damit hat man sehr schön den Wechsel der Jahreszeit dargestellt.
This beautiful bouquet of flowers stood in the entrance area of the monastery Isenhagen. All the plants used are so only in the transitional period between summer and autumn. I think, with it one has represented very beautifully the change of the season.
Erntezeit
Die Apfelernte scheint in diesem Jahr sehr gut zu werden. Überall hängen die Bäume voller Früchte.
Apple harvest this year seems to be very good. Everywhere the trees hang full of fruits.

Back in time
In 1959 the Deutsche Reichsbahn, the railway company of East Germany, introduced a light rail car to make service on branch lines more economic. With their bright red color the rail cars soon got the nickname of “blood blister”.
Another nickname originated from the rail cars’ main area of service in the country side. There it was called “piglet taxi”. However, the few remaining cars are now perfectly maintained by their owners, historic railway associations.
I encountered one of the railcars in the station of Putbus on the island of Rügen. Only the masses of tourists are new over the time when these rail cars were used here until about 30 years ago
