Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas to all visitors of mj’s photography.
Frohe Weihnachten an alle Besucher von mj’s photography.
A small selection of black and white images, recently posted at ipernity. Back to the roots, shot using Fujifilm Neopan 400, including developing them on my own and even doing some baryta prints as part of a darkroom workshop.
The image shows Yamamoto Masao during the opening of his exhibition KAWA at Forum für Fotografie, Cologne, Germany. Well worth seeing, until Oct 25th.
Finally, a larger selection of the Hallig Gröde 2009 images is now available in the gallery album name – suprise ;-) – Gröde 2009.
Endlich hab ich es geschafft, eine größere Auswahl der Hallig Gröde 2009 Bilder in ein entsprechendes Album der Gallerie einzustellen.
A few more impressions from the eclipse chasers at Ramada Plaza Sino-Bay Hotel, Jinshan, China. Not only that we were clouded out during totality, there was also ample supply of drenching rain afterwards. ;-) Thanks to Silvia Otto and Jan Sundström for the images.
[Unfortunately, there’s no higher resolution version of the images.]
Just updated the website to WordPress 2.8.4 and K2 1.0-RC8, which required redoing various changes and some new stylesheet stuff, but hopefully everything should work as before.
Added another new album with images from the total solar eclipse of 22 Jul 2009: Eclipse 2009 supplementing the China 2009 album. Alas, no images of totality, as we were clouded out.
Added a new Album to the gallery: China 2009 with a selection from this year’s trip to Shanghai, China.
At the end, it didn’t work out. We were only partially sucessful, so to speak. Just a few glimpses of the sun thru the clouds between 1st and 2nd contact, and even heavy rain after 3rd contact. The deep darkness was impressing, nevertheless.
A complete travel report (German only) can be found here..
Last preparations, only a few days to go.
