Welcome to my profile.
A few words about me: Certainly, I do neither reckon my photos as being art nor myself as being an artist. In a nutshell: I am no artist, but just a hobby photographer and substandard dabbler. Definitely not my cup of tea are: high dynamic range imaging, images produced by the help of artificial intelligence, pictures showing oversaturated, artificially looking, "clean" landscapes and skies as well as intentional camera movement pictures. I for one only upload photos of subjects as my eyes have seen them, which doesn't mean that I do no postprocessing. Yes, I do, but everything in moderation and not like someone, who misguidedly believes, by creating such exagerrated trashy or blurry pictures, she or he has become an artist.
I often crop pictures and correct converging lines as well as over- resp. underexposed parts of the photos, if possible - just because that was not what my eyes have seen. And I usually enhance the saturation just a bit and reduce the haze. That's it. The results should still look very realistic and certainly not artificial.
I'm open-minded and also open to constructive criticism. And if you have similar opinions, I'm looking forward to contacting you. See you then!
Please respect, that all of my photographs are under my own copyright ©. Hence, none of them may be reproduced and/or used in any way without my permission. Of course, this stance includes also the purpose of training an AI by using my photos.
Using my pictures for any commercial reasons is strictly prohibited by all means. However if you wish to use one of my shots without pursuing any commercial purposes, please contact me beforehand and we can discuss that. I will decide then, if and possibly under which conditions I will grant you to use the regarding photo.
Hence, don't just take and use any of my pictures secretly. It's in your own interest as sooner or later I will figure it out and won't hesitate to take action against it.
