I will not show any portraits or other photos involving people of my "personal network". If you find yourself accidentally shown on a photo and feel that this concerns your privacy please let me know. I will act appropriately.

 

As the number of photos will be large please use the sytematics of sets (Alben) provided.

 

Almost all photos are originals and not modified with software tools. Very few have been resized ore straightened. All photos taken with a Nikon "D"-Type DSLR or SONY alpha are available as RAW too. Photos taken earlier than 2005 will be scanned slides or negative film if not clearly marked with the camera name.

 

Some photos may not be made with an appropriate camera as sometimes only a smartphone was available. Hence some of the recent smartphones aren't as bad at all.

 

Besides using semi-professional equipment for more than 50 years now I experimented in the last 25 years with latest digital technologies as well as with crossover instruments like digital HD movie cameras offering the possibility of still photos too. The Canon Legria HF200 was not a bad choice. But since movie making is not my thing I gave this up quickly (for the benefit of those who had to suffer from watching my poorly made movies) and concentrate now again on still photos. Early 2019 saw me changing over from Nikon D7200 to Sony Alpha 6400 - and searching for acceptable lenses. Eventually I updated to Sony alpha full format, now using Sony A7R V.

 

If you do not like my English please have in mind that English is not my native language. Any hints to improve descriptions are welcome.

Why are most of the texts in English language?

 

Well, I hope my German citizens don't mind but English is a commonly understood language and my contacts are fare beyond the limits of German language.
