2018-06-11   WEISSENKIRCHEN AT THE DANUBE

I made a one-day-trip to the beautiful terrace-landscape of the Wachau, where three neat villages named Dürnstein, Weissenkirchen, and Spitz lie at the river Danube. The old town of Weissenkrichen brought some photo opportunities where I could capture the special houses which date back to the 17th century. Besides this, the photo is a good example of the nice Leica colors.

2018-06-10   SUNNY AFTERNOON IN LONDON

After visiting the Hayward Gallery in London I went outside and was standing on a bridge, where I could oversee that beautiful view of the themes, bridge, and boats. I took a pano from three photos to get the complete scenery on the photo. I stacked that pano from three handheld hdr-shots in Photoshop. When shooting panorama photos, it is important to get an overlap of about 30 percent from photo to photo. You will get better photo-merge results.

2018-06-08   BOTANICAL GARDEN IN VARENNA

Varenna is one of the amazing Italian villages which surround Lake Como. Best reachable via a ferry. You will see very neat botanical gardens, with many gardeners trimming the plants, watering the flowers and disposing the leaves and branches from the ways.

2018-06-07   CHINATOWN IN THE MORNING

I used the opportunity to visit Chinatown in San Francisco in the morning. The departure to the airport was two hours away, so I could use the spare time to explore and shoot photos. Since my photo equipment was already packed, I used my Google Pixel 2 XL for shooting and Snapseed for post-processing, an option I can recommend for lightweight walking and taking photos on the fly.

2018-06-02   VIEW FROM RUIN FALKENSTEIN

The view from ruin Falkenstein, a rural area of Lower Austria. Near the town Laa, where my brother with his girlfriend lives. Since it was late afternoon, we used the car up to the ruin, instead of walking for 1 hour.  🙂
