Bonadieshafen, Mannheim

(ISO 100, f2.5 @ 35mm, 5sec., 21:29) Manfred Hofmann introduced me to this place in the afternoon of that day and of course I had to come back at night.Thank you Manfred.

Backstage at the French-German funfair, Berlin

(ISO 400, f5.0 @ 29mm, 20sec., 00:47) This is the largest folk festival and one of the biggest funfairs in Berlin, featuring 150 plus performers, racing roller coasters and a number of rides including the Euro Coaster and the Poseidon water ride. In the centre of this funfair visitors experience a typical French village with a 14 metre high windmill called the Moulin Rouge. My interest here was looking behind…

French-German funfair, Berlin, one hour after midnight

(ISO 200, f2.8 @ 35mm, 13sec., 01:00) This is a fairground ride for kids. I think I would be scared to death as a 6 year old having to face that guy in the black dress. On the other hand the owner did have a very gentle attitude when he noticed me taking this shot. He was smoking his last cigar that evening and told me that he needs to…

Leibnizstraße, Saarbrücken Burbach

Quarry, Little Switzerland, Franconia

(ISO 400, f5.6 @ 25mm, 176sec., 21:27) This gravel quarry is more than 30 km from Nürnberg (the next bigger city), so hardly any light pollution here at all. Actually it was pitch dark and I did struggle a bit with frame and focusing. That little light from the bottom left side was from a small lamp not a flood light and the rest of it was from the moon.…

Parking lot, Allée du Stade, Berlin

(ISO 200, f2.8 @ 30mm, 3sec., 01:04) This is the parking lot of the French-German funfair in Berlin after midnight. Yes, I went into the funfair after it closed and I start with showing you the last image I shot that night. I assume the remaining cars in the distance belong to people working at the place because all visitors had left by that time.
