Classical mix of underexposure and fill-in flash of the plants in the foreground.

Nice winter conditions here. First check for traffic, then place camera low on tripod for dramatic compo.

In the aftermath transformed into B&W for simplifying the motive.

How do you add some extra to a nice motive from old  Sweden? Well  one solution could be using yourself - as here motion blured (1/25 sec).

I went through aprxm 15 shootings, before I was satisfied with the composition.

Not only clear reflection of clouds in the rear window, but also in the dark blue metallic roof of this Audi A8.

Outside the sharkfin of the A8, but by 'looking through the clouds', you can see parts of this car's interior.

This pair of swans were fouraring in calm water at twilight. in order not to disturb these, I placed my waterproof camera on a small pocket tripod (15 cm height) in the water with the lens just above water surface. Then I turned on the 10 sec self timer and moved away slowly. At the shooting point, ...

I was running after dark with a full moon up. So I carried with me my p&s camera + a tiny tripod. I got an idea of combinating the tree silhouettes from 'contre luz' of the moon with the artificial blinking light from my 3 diodes running light.

I was fascinated of this artificial palm area close to the harbour of Hamburg. 
I asked the man with the dog to throw the ball towards me and my camera placed on a small tripod 15 centimeters above the ground. Exposure not too short in order to capture some motion.

This nice smal country road view needed just a little contrast to the relaxed atmosphere. So I made a setup with camera on tripod and me driving my car while shooting the photo with my remote control trigger.

The speed of the car is 25 km/hour, but with an exposure time of 0.6 seconds this looks li...

Lowlight plus a bit windy conditions made me try this setup with the camera: manual, underexposure, 1/13 sec and fill-in flash. Except for the gras’n sheep at close distance, the rest is darkened and motion blurred.

Here I try to describe my intentions behind selected photos. And how I try to twist a little influence into the recording.
