Sky over Kiel

Fall is coming.
In Kiel, you can literally feel that. And you can see it:

I like Kiel. Part 4.

Last Sunday my wife and I took the harbor ferry over to Kiel's "East Coast" to enjoy the last warm rays of sun this summer.
There was a strong wind blowing which made the clouds paint really dramtic images in the sky.
It was a wonderful day with blue skies, white clouds, sailing ships and the sea.

Playing with Photos. Part 8.

Here are a couple of new photos I've played with in the last couple of days using various apps, from Camera+ (App Store Link) over Rays (App Store Link) to Snapseed (App Store Link), throwing in a little Scratchcam (App Store Link) and Instagram here and there :)

'Falckenstein'

Freitag Abend beim Teamabend eines meiner Teams im Blauen Engel gewesen.
Schlepper "Falckenstein" ist mit Schwung gegen die Kaimauer gedonnert. Hat ein mittleres Erdebeben verursacht.
Mein Drink hat gewackelt.

...und so sah es dann aus, nachdem er gegen die Mauer gefahren war:

Sunny Days in Kiel.

Letzten Sonntag war Sonne.
Also raus an die Förde, den kalten Wind um die Nase wehen lassen, den Seehunden Hallo sagen und die schönen Seiten von Kiel genießen.

Sommer am Ende des Regenbogens?

...hoffe ich jedenfalls.

A Weekend Retreat

Last weekend the company I work for organized a conference for the entire management level from all four locations of our enterprise.
It was a great opportunity to get to know everyone, work together in groups and of course have fun.
The conference was held at Iberotel Fleesensee in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is located right at the shore of a picturesque lake and the setting sun of early spring gave me a couple of good photo opportunities.

Here are some of the photos I took, enjoy.

This is our CEO during a quick break on the first day of the conference.

I really like the Hipstamatic app a lot, because you can generate so many different moods by combining different films and lenses. Combined with the Olloclip extension for the iPhone which offers wide angle and fish-eye lenses you can really have some fun!

Playing with Photos. Part 2.

This was taken in the summer of 2008 at a barbeque on the beach of Heidkate (Germany). I just recently re-discovered the original version of it and thought I could turn it into something different. It really has an eerie, almost ghostly feel to it now, I think. I like it.

These two (above and below) I took the day before yesterday in the final hour of work. The sun was setting behind our office building (Kiel, Germany) and painted the clouds over the city with really great colors.

I shot the photos from the 10th floor and revamped them with the Camera+ App on my iPhone.

This is our IT dude. He's cool. 'Nuff said.
