Week 27 – The summer of 13′
I have to admit that I took these a few weeks ago, but as I’ve only just got them back from the lab. I think it’s okay to publish them now, especially as summer is still in full swing here. They were both taken on Fuji Provia 100f slide film, I’ve cropped and sharpened a little but nothing else. I’ve also compressed them to half their size, so you can get an idea of the detail. Shooting slide film is costly and time-consuming and you never really know what you’re going to get, but if the shots come out right then they really are an eye catcher!

Week 3 – Winter Wonderland
I was going to do this week on derelict buildings and then I scanned these two and all that changed…..
P.S. As you see I still don’t seem to have got over my “analogue” phase just yet, and to be honest there’s no end in sight!

Week 27 – The Saale
After a short weekend break in the south of the country, this week’s post is centred around the river Saale.
As we have now reached halfway on the photographic journey through the year 2011, this week’s entry is interactive. All those entering the poll (see below) have the chance to become the lucky winner of a once in a lifetime prize.
So here goes:
The first two were taken directly on the banks of the Saale River in Hirschberg (Thuringia). This Bench is the longest to be cut from one log (according to the Guinness Book of Records), and seats approximately 97 people depending on which nationality you are.

The third picture was shot in Burgk (Thüringen) and shows the new tower (42 metres) with views over the river Saale, the Castle and the surrounding landscapes.

Week 18 – The Lady by the Lake

Week 12 – Katharinenholz
Thanks to Antje for this week’s entry, I was definitely in need of some inspiration for one reason or another.
Spring hasn’t quite made it yet, even if the clocks have gone forward this last weekend. It is however “in the air” as they say.
This was taken at Katharinenholz in Bornim (Potsdam)

Week 8 – Zum Zipfelteich
Here’s a picture of the little people and their mother on a rather curious looking bank. It was taken during one of those now so very familiar winter walks in the south-east of the country.
This is a place I will undoubtedly be visiting again this year albeit, in a somewhat tempered climate. I might even use this location as a changing of the seasons project within this project because it really is ever so pretty here.

P.S. Sorry about the blown out sky but sometimes you just can’t choose when you get the opportunity to shoot, and I really didn’t want to “Photoshop” it.
