Welcome

... on my website and have fun browsing the picture galleries.
Visit the world of nature photography.

If somebody sees something on his raids which is impressive and raised, he pauses in a devout silence for a moment. For him it isn't necessary to hallow one of seven days because for him every day is sacred.

New images of the Red Deer rut 2018, 09 Feb 2019

Suddenly this Red stag stands in front of me, the used 800mm objective only allows portrait photos

Red Deer, the male is known as a stag, the female is a hind, and the young is a calf - (Photo Red stag tests the receptiveness of a hind)

While the 2017 Red Deer rut was not particularly successful from a photographic point of view, things could only get better in 2018. On October 13th even a successful mating attempt could be documented. Photographs were taken in two different habitats. The first, already frequently visited area, is a very extensive heath landscape. The other habitat is a forest area of over 10,000 hectares. The proportion of coniferous forest is over 80 percent. In this area deer photography was very difficult. Protracted lengthy waiting on forest aisles, which required constant attention. The moments with sight were mostly very entertaining and did not announce themselves. Unfortunately, it was not until the third last day that I discovered a large stage in this area with a viewing angle of more than 180 degrees. What the coming rut will probably offer for experiences. Excitement is provided.

Since years I search fossils. Certainly more by the way happenstance. The last time I´am looking more intensive and found some fossilisations. As a addict photograph, I have the target to present the discoveries in good photos.
