Me at the opening of my new exhibition "homeland" in the bar of one of my best friends last sunday. My long-time colleague Rainer Lehmann took the picture for the local press. He said, I won't get any more beautiful ...
Due to Corona there are no people. But prints are selling well.
This is the original text from the local newspaper;
Freising - When the early morning light casts a golden yellow shimmer over the landscape in the Ampertal, photographer Siegfried Martin is out and about with his camera. In the glittering dew, leaves, bark structure forms of tree bark and old wood or the rippling waves that the wind lays on the surface of the oxbow lakes along the Amperauen are presented. The large-format photos that the artist is currently showing in the Q-Bar in the Upper Old Town appear almost three-dimensional. He has been “on new, exciting paths” in recent years, says Martin. He has not abandoned analog work with his Leica M or the Hasselblad medium format cameras. However, his love for photography has been revived in recent years with the new generation of Nikon cameras. He was inspired by the “focus shift” function, which automatically varies the distance setting on his Nikon Z7 and thus improves the depth of field. He is turning more and more to minimalist motifs “on the doorstep”. On walks or bike rides through moss and Amperauen around Zolling, he can discover the "abundance" of nature. Stopping and listening to the splash of water or the wind rubbing through the grass and leaves - that is what is ultimately just as important to him as pressing the shutter release button. “The motif finds me,” says Martin. “Suddenly I stand in front of something and know that it is.” On numerous photo trips through China and Tibet off the main tourist routes in the last few decades, the photographer recalls. "There were endlessly spectacular landscapes that you had dreamed of for years and suddenly you were standing in front of it". But he also finds the beauty of nature “on a small scale” in the Ampertal, within a radius of just ten kilometers from his home town of Zolling. He calls the exhibition “Homeland” because home has become more and more important in recent years, as Martin muses. “Maybe it also depends on how old you are,” he says and laughs. The love of photography is revived every day. The motifs in the cycle of nature are simply beautiful and harmonious. Regardless of whether in winter the last leaf on the tree above the water of the Amper lights up in the morning light or pussy willows draw a surreal picture like a vortex of dancers: The pictures are touching and fascinating. mam

This image of Jokulsarlon's glacial lagoon was taken just as a veil of mist started to lift, revealing the numerous shapes and forms of the icebergs that are making their way out to sea. In the distance, low clouds mask off the bottom half of a peak, leaving just its top exposed, removing the scale and giving the illusion of a much larger and formidable mountain. I chose the title 'Shifting World' due to the fact that as I watched the scene unfold, the only things that remained still were the two gulls, perched on the nearest iceberg, watching as everything around them shifted in this unstable environment.

I managed to spot some lovely crepuscular rays over the sea recently and rushed down a field to catch it. Glad I did, it was a spectacular show! The manacles are a group of rocks that stretch nearly a mile just below the surface of the water. Extremely hazardous to ships, there are countless wrecks there.

A few more shots from the series of the seagulls. There was a lot of action going down and places on the railing hard fought over.

Many thanks to Foto Optik Gray in Zug, Switzerland for offering me this lens among with some others for a great price to rent over the weekend. They are great for support and highly recommend using them if you ever have a need for camera gear in switzerland.
Oh, another one of those stitched panorama macro shots where the subject is to large to fit in frame, right?
Wrong. This blunt stretch spider (Tetragnatha obtusa) is absolutely small enough to fit in frame (as can be seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52807137438/), but since the top and bottom was just pure white, I figured I could get away with cropping that away and make this a 21:9 image.
And the trickery doesn't stop there. This is also rotated 180 degrees as I found this one upside-down in the veranda ceiling so I had to get a stool (which was a little too high) and shoot this with the camera upside down, pressing the shutter button with my left pinky finger (my mom took a photo of me looking very elegant here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52806686381/).
This is a focus stack, but instead of just taking multiple shots while moving or shifting focus ever so slightly, here I actually lowered the camera and rested between two shots because of the awkward position and still somehow managed to get the exact same angle and focus where it was needed - I'm as surprised as anyone!
Looking closely at this spider, you can see what will be its doom. On the back of it, there is a larvae of the parasitic wasp Acrodactyla quadrisculpta which has attached itself and will eat of the spider - but not enough to kill it until the larvae is ready to pupate.
I finally found a new job after five months of unemployment. For the first time in my life I am working in downtown Chicago, aka the Loop. I also moved recently and haven't had time to walk with my camera in nature in nearly two months. All that said, I've been taking city shots with my new Google Pixel 3 phone.
This is the view from the office lunch room, looking at Monroe at Dearborn.
LNER 4-6-2 Pacifics A4 Class 60007 "Sir Nigel Gresley" and A1 Class 60163 "Tornado" are given close attention by the night shift workers on shed to prepare them for the following day's work. They were at the Didcot Railway Centre for the "Once in a Blue Moon" event with fellow British Railways Express Passenger Blue engine "King Edward I", and are seen during a Timeline Events photographic evening.
Justin, Michael, Jason, Alison and I at Turimetta Beach - 29 August 2009.
Ideally I'd like the wave to come up all the way to the camera but the sand kept washing away and moving my tripod & camera.

Seasonal Shift - At ~10-12 months of age, this young Bobcat will be left to fend for itself. I lay down and shot in vertical orientation to capture this scene with the redbud blooms in the background signaling the change of seasons to Spring and a big change in this young animal's life.

This gathering of ruddy turnstones began dispersing as the sun rose, as if their shift was starting (or perhaps ending?).

- It was the new generation smooth Detroit-inspired style German cars, designed by Chuck Jordan, showing first signs of GM rationalisation with Vauxhall (sharing same floor pan and suspension with new generation Vauxhall Victor FE).
- The Rekord D Series (easily mistaken to connote a diesel-powered car), so later renamed “2” Series (1971-1977) was already in production before production of the Rekord C was ended (1966-1972).
