W48 #27

Playing around with my new LX3, a really old telephone, the venerable W48 from my father-in-law’s grab bag, found itself under photographic scrutiny. And yes, the LX3 is a great little camera, a major improvement from my old LX1, especially in the noise department and the overall handling.

Big Brother is Watching You #7

Butzweilerhof, Ossendorf, Cologne’s former airfield. Among the barracks buildings there is also the decaying container home used for one season of the Big Brother TV show.

As of lately, the Butzweilerhof area features a major outlet of your favourite Swedish-style furniture supplier.

This is one of my more popular Butzweilerhof images at ipernity.

TCMG @ Oberhausen #12 – Gasometer Rooftop

Visiting Oberhausen with TheCologneMeetingGroup for the exhibition “Jim Rakete: 1/8 sec. – Vertraute Fremde”. And while we were at it, the nearby Gasometer building wasn’t left alone, either.

For this posting I gave LR2/Blog a try, quite convenient and seems to work well.

The New mj’s Photography

Finally, I’m moving with this website to a brand-new WordPress installation, which will hopefully be a more flexible and up-to-date foundation for the development of mj’s photography. The old stuff is still there, see the previous posting.

Endlich habe ich es geschafft, diese Website auf eine brandneue WordPress-Installation umzustellen, die hoffentlich eine flexiblere und aktuellere Basis für die Entwicklung von mj’s photography darstellt. Der alte Kram ist natürlich weiterhin vorhanden, siehe dazu auch den vorherigen Eintrag.
