A few km away from yesterday’s spot is this beautiful hiking and snowing area… In Bernau. . We had a hike with @kaihu_und_hadez last autumn with a tiny bit of frost. I love the Black Forest in autumn. Those beautiful colors, yellows, greens, mixed with cool autumn tones and a blue sky above… . We had a lot of treats …

Often I express my love for the Black Forest. As a child I joined my Grandfather who was a salesman travelling the South West of Germany on his weekly tours. I just love the South West of our country and it always made me especially happy when we crossed the Black Forest. The mountains, the valleys, creeks and lakes… They …

Despite the stifling heat we have gone hiking. The forecast announced 35°C and up to 38° for the following days, a whopping 100°F . It was the first day of the current heatwave and I knew that it was the best chance to get Ninja and Hadn’t the exercise they need – and me as well 🥵 – because it …

When you look at the first picture, the one that jump-started my career here on IG a few years back, it does look nice as a posture, but all the details that I can see while editing pictures …

One of the problems here is the display ratio of pictures. At first, it was only possible to upload square pictures to Instagram and only in recent years they allowed different format pictures. Typical photography is wide format which ich displayed only as small as a thumbnail and get overlooked quickly and reduced engagement. . The optimal aspect ratio for …

Today I tried something different, “a moody” edit. . I really love these tiny spots of bright lights in a dense forest. They are actually as spot lights in a “studio”. . But here I got the settings wrong. Ninja was in the bright afternoon sunlight, which in return causes a lot of dark shadows. I could not get enough …

I hope this answer the question if Ninja got his reward and what the reward was 😉 Ninja looks so satisfied chewing ❤️ . It is so warm again. Yesterday I took Hadez and Ninja for morning walk, before it was really hot ( it was hotter here than in Africa 🥵 ) and today it was already warm in …
