Panometer in Dresden

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

Am letzten Wochenende besuchte ich nicht nur den “Striezelmarkt” in Dresden, sondern auch (nach einem guten Tipp) das Panometer in Dresden, ein umgebautes Gasometer, welches ein 360° Panorama von Dresden, wie es im 18. Jahrhundert aussah, beherbegt. Daneben steht noch ein weiteres, bis jetzt ungenutztes Gasometer, mit welchem man aber sehr gut mal wieder Panoramas aufnehmen und basteln kann (3 Hochkant-Aufnahmen á 28mm, gestitcht mit Hugin + Enblend):

Ljubljana

Sunday, July 1st, 2007

I had the chance to visit the city of Ljubljana last week for a few days. This is a very nice city with bustling activity in the old town all night long. Seems, that most of the 200.000 citizens meet there each day to have a talk and some nice beer and/or food. If you go there then have a visit to the Castle and its tower when the weather is nice. The view is awesome around when visibility is good. When I would go there another time I would also explore the surrounding countryside and its mountains.

Africa

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

What a time … this year a did a holiday like never before: Going through East Africa by truck with a group  of other crazy people for three weeks. This overlanding travel “vacation” in Africa has been most astonishing – a most impressive holiday where I met a lot of nice people and got a glimpse of the hard live on this beautiful continent. Still need time to let all the impressions sink in. Here come a few for a start:

Nice Rims

Saturday: Did a spontaneous visit to a local car tuning show. It was not very big but never the less a fine chance to do some photos of over-sized cromium-plated alloy parts.
Note to self: upload best shots to flickr.
