Week 28 – Don’t you just love blondes…….

July 18, 2011 by 53weeks

and this one is a very special example…… meet the aptly named Bonny. She is a very obedient, patient and easy going girl, quite prepared to have her pictures taken in the rain sitting next to her favourite treat without complaint. A real low maintenance girl…….. f/4 1/80 ISO 100 @30mm

Week 23 – Rainy Milano

June 13, 2011 by 53weeks

This is Uli, my colleague on a very wet day in Milan. We went from a glorious nearly 30°C in Berlin to a miserable 18°C and rain in Milan. Still I got to see the San Siro from the outside so all in all not bad for a day’s business trip. The first picture (above) is a crop of the second (below), as usual I couldn’t decide so I’m hedging my bets once again. Both (of course) f4 1/1250 ISO […]

Week 20 – The Avenue

May 24, 2011 by 53weeks

This is the avenue that runs between the Orangery and the Dragonhouse (Belvedere) in Sanssouci. I seem to have suffered a creative block this week, considering my L.O.F.T. it’s astonishing that I can be susceptible to such a thing. f10 1/125 ISO 100 @30mm

Week 12 – Katharinenholz

March 28, 2011 by 53weeks

Thanks to Antje for this week’s entry, I was definitely in need of some inspiration for one reason or another. Spring hasn’t quite made it yet, even if the clocks have gone forward this last weekend. It is however “in the air” as they say. This was taken at Katharinenholz in Bornim (Potsdam) f10 1/160 ISO 400 30mm

Week 10 – ….. Hong Kong

March 13, 2011 by 53weeks

Aren’t I a lucky boy? I don’t just get to partake in a business trip to Hong Kong, but I also get to invest in a brand new razor-sharp Sigma 30mm 1.4 whilst I’m there. This was shot from pier 9, Central district, Hong Kong Island looking across to Kowloon where the MS Queen Elizabeth was moored. I did try to persuade quite a number of people to let me take their picture on a bank, but they were not […]
