I had a nice view this morning sitting on lava rocks with my friends from China. First they made fun of me and my thermos of green tea, but at the end I think they enjoyed it. After all it's quite fresh at 10,000 feet above sea level.
Fishing at Cape Kiwanda
On the road since three weeks now. It couldn't be any nicer. Traveling through Oregon is one big treat satisfying almost all of my photography appetite. Also my appetite for donuts, fudge, steak, fried fish, and what not. ;-)If you don't hear from me this week, I'm in a remote Nevada desert together with 60,000 very crazy, very creative and very lovely people. One of them being Steffi. I can't wait seeing how she perceives and captures all that.
Quiraing
Quiraing is one of several distinctive pieces of landscape that can be found on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Now what looks like I climbed onto the roof of the world here, was actually just a ten minute walk from a parking lot.
Dunnottar Castle
I found this very impressive sight at the Scottish East Coast.About the processing: I added a little bit of a pinhole camera effect to it. You don't have to like it, I'm not even sure I like it myself - I can tell you in two days or so.Here is another thing I'm not so sure about. You must have noticed that I widened the blog a little. Now images are shown 900 instead of 700 pixel wide. How about that? Is this good? If the blog appears a little too weird now, in a way that makes you think something is broken, you might have to reload the page entirely so the new stuff is not being mixed up with whatever is left in the cache of your browser. For me just hitting the reload button did the trick.
Isle of Skye
Isle of Skye is a magical place in the Scottish Highlands.
A big thank you to my friends on Facebook who turned my attention to this incredible place. I had so much fun hiking around there. Will be back for sure.
Seclusion
A first picture from Scotland. No, the trailer is not mine, but I think it would be nice to sleep in one occasionally - especially when you are in middle of the incredible Scottish Highlands. I'll probably rent a camper when I'm in New Zealand in September. Till then you will of course see more pictures from Scotland and all sorts of other places here.
Video?A thing I started while exploring the country: I started filming myself talking into the camera. I'm still not sure if that was an act of loneliness (nobody to talk to, so let's talk to the camera) or if such video clips could be a new interesting thing for my blog. In the past I saw other photographers doing things like that, but they seemed way more "videogenic" than me. Maybe I'll post one of those weird clips, or maybe I won't.
