Once again, I advanced quite a large step: This blog now also provides the possibility to upload photos in a batch. This will make work much more easy for me.

Some 3 weeks ago I had the opportunity to make some low key photographs with Anne. Although my equipment was not always sufficient to put the light exactly where I wanted it, I think the pictures are worth showing here.

Have fun with it!

Of course, these photographs are also on my Flickr-Photostream.

I do not only make photos in my home city, but also when I am on the road. It seems I like churches and Kathedrals very much. That's why I present a small choice of pictures here.

You will see: Lausanne cathedral, Amiens cathedral, Dome of Aix-la-Chapelle, the Holy Blood Basilic in Bruges and a small, pretty church in nearby Panker. Some of the pictures are HDR processed. Have fun.

Of course, you can see the pictures in my Flickr-Photostream as well!

The data model that powers this website has been refactored. Everything should run quite a bit faster now.

Have a lot of fun!

Anne and I had made an appointment for a shooting on a short notice. Subject would be "Evil Fae Anne". That's why this post is called that way.

To realise that subject, we decided, to ask Jenny to do make-up and hair. Many thanks to Jenny at this place!

At the same time I wanted to try my new (at least at that point of time) background system during the shooting.

On balance I am quite happy with the photographs. But I think, the aforementioned subject could have been captured better. Well, next time, then.

Without a doubt, a real highlight is the last photograph of this small series. I could not convince my tomcat not to pose for the camera...

Of course, these photographs are also on my Flickr-Photostream.

Only a small eternity has passed since the last homepage update. But here it is back, with some great news:

The new design finally is online. It's not 100% finished yet, but only small things are missing now.

The code has been ported to  Grails 1.2 and got an extended database schema. Interested in numbers? Have a look:

As you can see, it still is a quite small project.  Grails makes it possible.

During my last holiday trip, I had the opportunity to visit the wonderful city of Bruges. Yes, the Bruges as "In Bruges". And I concur: it's really gorgeous! The old town has a stunning atmosphere - and I am looking forward to visiting the city another time.

When I arrived, I was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of tourists. I was not expecting that. On the other hand: It was summer and it was holiday season. I could have been prepared.

I enjoyed my day there a lot and made quite a lot of photographs. On this occasion I present to you some of the night pictures I have been capturing there.

The first picture shows a building at the great market place, right across the Belfroy, which is shown on the second picture.

By the way, as it seems, most tourists only make day trips to Bruges, so in the evening the city was quite nice to roam. I even got a table in a famous beer bar there!

The last two pictures show a few of the lovely canals, that wind through the city.

I hope you enjoyed the photo trip there as much as I did.

I have used the last few days with a bug hunt. A few bugs did prevent the production use of this website. But finally, one can use the system quite good. I think, the result is quite impressive regarding the small amount of program code:

This website is still not feature complete, and of course the design will be changed as well.
