Using Vintage Glass

A few Years ago, I inherited my Grandpas old Pentax ME with some Lenses around a few Corners. I also had an Adapter to put those on my modern day Camera since I got that Device. The only Thing I never really did was to actually use some Vintage PK Glass on my Canon M5,…

My Foto History.

I still remember when I got my first Camera. It was a shoddy 35mm Point and Shoot, but I absolutely loved it. I think believe was when I turned six or seven Years old. I got that Camera for my Birthday back then, my my first Roll of Film was done before the Day had…

Winter Photography.

I absolutely love Winter, and Snow is a huge Part of the Season. And is the Cold, which I also find enjoyable at Times. I also really enjoy Winter Photography. It is a lot of Fun to Capture all the White and make it look good. A Teich near Festenburg. Snowy Landscapes just have something…

Using a Tripod.

I really do not like it to use Tripods, they are big, bulky and take some Time to set up and adjust Properly. To me, Tripods are generally a Pain. But yesterday, I actually brought my old Manfrotto Befree into the Okertal to just give it a Shot. I thought that I might be able…

My favourite Winter Fotos.

I absolutely do love Winter. It is cold, and the Snow can be a Mess. But also there is Snow! And it looks awesome on the Trees and Mountains here in the Harz. Over the Years, I have done a lot of Winter Photography. And Winter is slowly but surely coming back, I thought that…

A Conundrum.

I guess I have a Major Photography Problem. And no, I did not lose another Lens. It goes deeper than that. Lately, I kinda like Long Exposure Photography again, especially with Things like Trains or even Cars moving through the Frame leaving beautiful Light Trails. That is still not my Problem though. An ICE pulling…

Kit Lenses.

On my Family Trip to Lübeck last Month, my old 18-55mm Kit Lens plain out refused to work. It was very dirty and I had not been using it in a long Time. Last Week, I then discovered that most of my absolute favourite Fotos were actually taken with that plasticky Kit Lens, and I…

Golden Hour

Golden Hour can be very beautiful... when the Conditions are right. But shooting only during those Times would be very limiting, and quite boring indeed. Off Course it is still beautiful, but it is also not usually meant for me. Golden Hour-ish in the Woods. Yesterday, I had some beautiful Golden Light in the Woods.…

I love Landscape Photography.

I kinda do like Landscape Photography. Actually, I like it a lot. Beautiful Vistas and deep seated Details are my thing. And I has been that Way since I remember doing Photography. I also swayed into Cars and Portraits a few Times, but Landscapes always drew me back to them. The Stairs in Festenburg. Something…

I miss my 50mm.

Last Week, my Canon 50mm 1:1.8 STM fell into an old Sinkhole near Düna. I tried to get it back out, but to no avail. The Area was to Dangerous, and the Lens is in all likelihood completely destroyed anyways. When I got my first DSLR for Christmas back in 2016, I first only had…
