Durchatmen
Der Besuch einer Veranstaltung mit über 100 Ausstellern kann schon sehr anstrengend sein. Da braucht man die eine oder andere Pause.
Visiting an event with over 100 exhibitors can be very exhausting. You need a break or two.

The House between the Rocks
Castel Meur, the “House between the Rocks”, is most famous and often photographed, located in Plougrescant, Bretagne, France. It’s a nice juxtaposition between the wild nature and the shelter-seeking house.
Infrared Photography
Few months ago, I visited a photo gallery at the California Coast where a photographer had a display of infrared images. Since then, I have been so attracted to this kind of photography that I started shooting images with this technique.

Oak Fire
This past week I visited an area that makes me very sad because it was an area I loved to go and photograph. In the spring and fall it was always full of color and beauty. A year ago this entire area was ravaged by a wildfire that destroyed everything in it’s path. And while I saw signs of regrowth, it will take years to regain that beauty. 127 homes were lost and over 19,000 acres were destroyed. People’s lives were upended and wildlife was lost. All because of an arsonist’s hand. So sad.
Mt. Shasta
I took a trip to Northern California for a small family reunion. I had a little time one morning an took a trip up Everett Memorial Highway to the old ski bowl on Mt. Shasta. The first photo is on the way up, the second from 7800 feet looking south.
Für ein kleines Familientreffen unternahm ich eine Reise nach Nordkalifornien. Eines Morgens hatte ich etwas Zeit und machte einen Ausflug den Everett Memorial Highway hinauf zum alten Skibowl am Mt. Shasta. Das erste Foto ist auf dem Weg nach oben, das zweite aus 7800 Fuß Höhe mit Blick nach Süden.
Walnut Creek, CA
This is an infrared image of the business part in Walnut Creek, CA. In post I added a blue-yellow filter to the image. Enjoy!
Futtersuche
Ich lasse auf meinem Balkon immer ganz bewußt die abgeblühten Pflanzen mit ihren Samenkapseln stehen. Sehr zur Freude der Blaumeisen, die sich gerne daran bedienen. Und für mich ist es eine gute Gelegenheit die flinken Gesellen recht bequem vom Wohnzimmer aus abzulichten.
I always deliberately leave the withered plants with their seed pods on my balcony. Much to the delight of the blue tits, who like to help themselves to them. And for me it is a good opportunity to photograph the nimble fellows quite comfortably from the living room.
