Hallig Gröde 2007

This time a faster turn-around, the album Gröde 2007 is now online.

Working with a laptop and Adobe Lightroom on-location, I’m able to post a first selection of images much faster than I used to be, eg last year’s Gröde images. The gallery album Gröde 2007 contains this year’s selection of Gröde images, supplementing the travel photoblog posted to the Hallig Gröde photoblog and my flickr photostream. Image stitched from 2 original exposures using PanoramaStudio.

Tomorrow we’ll be back again on Gröde, so let’s have a look back at one of the photos from 2006.

Just in time finished wading thru all the images from the last visit, a selection of these is now online in the gallery album Gröde 2006. And of course there is also the flickr set Gröde 2006. And, just that we’re at it ;-), the Hallig Gröde Photoblog.

Part 2 of the Stadtbild Köln selection, used for the new programme of the adult education center of Cologne.

Except for Miss Piggie on the front page – of course! ;-) -, a broad selection of images by the Stadtbild Köln workshop group have been used for illustrating the new Januar to August 2007 programme of the Cologne adult education center VHS.
This image from the Cologne tradeshow center is part of this selection, other images by myself can be found in the new album “Stadtbild Köln Selection 2”.
Speaking of which, I just added an installation of Coppermine to the website, which will be new virtual gallery of my images. It also includes the selection of my images, wich were part of the Stadbild Köln exhibition.

Now in the fourth year, we went to Hallig Gröde for a gorgeous summer vacation.

Some of the images can be found here in the new album Hallig Gröde 2006. You may also want to have a look at my photos on flickr, which also include a set Gröde 2006 with many more images to appear there. In addition there is a new photoblog Hallig Gröde featuring the images from flickr with German language descriptions and comments.

Travel Report Turkey

Travel Report Turkey

Travel Report Turkey

After the initial first images of the total solar eclipse, a complete travel report is now online.

To somehow capture the memories of the trip to the total solar eclipse in Turkey, I wrote a travel report of the entire trip, including more images, not only of the solar eclipse, but also of the places visited in Turkey. Currently, the travel report is available in German only. The image shows the town of Uchisar in the Cappadocia area.

Total Solar Eclipse 2006

Black sun over Turkey on 29th March 2006.

Reloaded. Optimized images from the solar eclipse, removing some of the haze. This photograph of the total solar Eclipse was taken on a location near Akörenkisla/Büyükburnak which again is near Konya, Turkey. There is a new album Eclipse 2006 with images from the trip to Turkey (more to come), including some more images from the totality.
