Hey, I won the contest "Waterscape Sunrise and Sunset" held by #SunriseAndSunsetClub (https://www.deviantart.com/sunriseandsunsetclub) with my photo Greifswald. Yay! This is the first contest I've won on deviantArt, I'm really excited about it :D Please have a look at the other winners ;) Recently I could achieve three goals: - have >100 watchers - get a Daily Deviation - win a contest All this means a lot to me and I have to admit I'm proud of myself to have achieved these goals within a few months. But unfortunatelly I won't have as much time for photography as I had the last months, because from next week on I'm going to study again and I have to focus on that, so I can call m

Hey everyone! Today I uploaded a few photos I made during the Oktoberfest 2011. I tried to get used to my Canon EF 50mm F1.8 II, which was difficult at the beginning, because I was used to 10mm focal length. I also tried to capture everything as it was, meaning I didn't ask the people if I can take a photo. People are always smiling on pictures and I don't like that ;) I even wanted to take a picture in a tent, but I was too drunk to get a proper photo, sorry for that :D I hope you like the few impressions :)

Finally I've bought a lens for landscape-photography: it's a Sigma 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC HSM. Actually I preferred the Tokina 12-24mm lens, but there were none in eBay, at least not within a price range I wanted to pay. So I searched for other ultra-wide-angle lenses and I was lucky to purchase the Sigma for a low price :) So far, I'm very satisfied with it. I read a review about the Sigma, where the author also said, that it wasn't easy to get used to the wide angle, because you'll get so much stuff into the picture (I hope you understand what I mean^^). This is one point, I have to agree. The first look through the viewfinder was amazing, b
