As Chase Jarvis pointed out “the best camera is the one you have with you” I was driving home this night, stopping to replenish my gas when I got totally the creeps by this raven who was totally comfortable sitting on my car’s side mirror. Halloween, shortly in the past this could’ve been a bad omen straight out of a horror movie. I was fortunatly quick to get out my iPhone to shoot some pics before he was bored with me. By the way, I made it safely all 290km to my home. Peeeewww….

Crane-2, ursprünglich hochgeladen von martin zeile photography

Damn, I’m far back the goal to post one image a week, even oce every two I missed badly. For next year I hope I can keep up better to my goals.
Anyway, back from the maldives the first shot I share is this one of a crane which was to kind to me. I could get as close as two meter before he slowly walked and than flew away. I nailed a few shot with my 70-200 before he decided to go anywhere. I was lucky, it was a beautiful sunset an the water in the background got me a nice color. The last sparks of sunshine added some warmth to the head. This was an inner thanksgiving to me.

Soon I will share some more photos of my trip – I need some days of sorting and more importantly deleting a bunch of crappy images. I think approx. one week until you can expect something new.

So dig in later!

A short tip before my vacation:

If you are only slightly interested in taking photos with your iPhone you should consider Chase Jarvis’ “best camera” app developed by Übermind Inc.

It is most you need to get the best out of your photos and send them to the internet, your blog or sth. else right away.

You can get it directly through itunes here.

(For your interest: I do not get any money by promoting this, I’m just convinced of the software)

On Tuesday I held the vernissage of my first exibit (total of 43 photographies). TO my pleasure about 50 people came to see my work. Thank you to all who participated and in advance to those who will come in the following two months to visit. If you happen to have any questions, suggestions or anything else fell free to send me an email or leave a comment to this thread.
I uploaded some images, two of them you can see below. Quality is not very decent but anyway.
You can see the whole set in a flickr album here.
Thanks to the whole team of “Gallerie Eisenbart” for their amazing support! 
 
Cheers, Martin

Twins peeking at the ongoing Oldtimer Race. They were outside of the offiial spectators area watching illegally at the race with an almost shameful expression. Cute!

This mouse was just waking up, stretching a few times directly in front of my camera. I got lucky to change my lens quickly enough and not scare her away…

Shot with Canon 5D Makr II with Canon 100 mm Macro with 25 + 12 mm extension tubes. Distance to object around 40-50 cm (20 inches).
