The last few days I’ve been taking more pictures again. I always have phases where I take pictures daily for a few weeks, then I get bored and don’t take photos in weeks or months.
A research assistant at Uni is a big hobby-photographer (fishes mostly) and has all kind of lenses which he lends me.
Last week I had the Canon 50mm macro and shot photos like the ones below:
This week I’m running around with the 100mm macro, which is bigger (and more expensive) than my camera. I’m able to take great close ups like this photo below
It’s fun!
Surveying the forest was good. Very time consuming, but fun. We had luck with the weather, it only rained in the mornings. Here are some pictures:
We focused on surveying areas ruined by the storm “Kyrill”, which “flew” over Germany in January 2007.
Ah, I should have studied surveying, it’s so much more fun to work outside than in the office infront of a PC all day…
Wow I love the photographs you took! So rich in colour and detail!
I want to get into photography but buying a good camera is expensive.. and now that I know that it is lenses that do the different and amazing stuff.. it’s going to be exensive.. sigh.
But yes, funnily my friend and i were just talking bout photography last night and how we’d both like to get into it~
wow! It’s amazing how great pictures you can take with different lenses right? I’ve never tried taking photos with a “real” camera, but I want one so I can try 🙂
Your photos are really good!
OMG! SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!! I love your photos!
I wish I had a camera at all… ;o;
Thanks 🙂
I have a Canon EOS 350, I got it when shops tried to “get rid of it” seeing the new model was out. I got it very cheap 😀
Oh my… beautiful pictures! I especially love the picture of the dahlia. 🙂 I wish I had a better camera than my phone camera!
Beautiful! Makes me wish I bought that DSLR instead of a regular point and shoot to replace my old one. =(
The photos are lovely! Especially the 2nd one 🙂
Did I ever tell you that my dad is a surveyor? 😉
First of all, I love this layout, it’s beautiful!
I’m the same with photography, sometimes it seems that I drag the camera everywhere for days on end taking photos non-stop. And all of a sudden it’s ‘over’ and I don’t use the camera for weeks or months.
The photos you took with the borrowed lenses are great, I really love macro photography, it’s more difficult than it seems to get that perfect close-up shot but yours came out awesome!
those are some gorgeous shots! your really good with composition!! all of them are composed really well 🙂 i never put my camera down it’s like a part of me where i go it goes.. maybe it’s an addiction?!
that’s so sweet of him to let you borrow lenses 🙂 someone needs to let me borrow the 85mm lens lol i want that lens something terrible!!
Oh wow! I love the bokeh on that first photograph. It’s so pretty!
Great photos! I love macro photography. I’ve been trying to save up to buy a few more lenses for my camera. Expensive hobby but I enjoy it.
Wow, lovely blog! And isn’t the 50 mm awesome? I dropped mine 🙁 but it still works.. just falls apart occasionally, haha. The 100 mm sounds like a blast to have! I love the photos you took. Especially the one in black and white. 🙂
