As you can see on my website, the last few images where all from my phone. I was in a little bit of a creative camera crisis, as I wanted to take pictures with my camera, but didn’t see the point. I resolved my crisis by realizing, that I must edit my camera photos, so that they can really show their potential. So I started to play around with HDR merging, a technique, every modern phone does automatically....
This image was a random catch on a warm evening in June while eating pizza on a porch with friends. The sky was giving quite a spectacular view and I took an image in the perfect moment.

Well, the title of a little misleading, as there was no wedding. But this could be the view of a wedding, as this image was taken from the highest floor in the Hochzeitsturm (English: wedding tower) in Darmstadt. So, if you are willing to take some stairs (or a small elevator), you could have this view through one of the small windows during your wedding. Gear and settings used for this image:...
This photo was taken on a small trip in Rhineland-Palatinate on my grandfathers’ birthday. You can see him walking near the tree. It was a windy day in February, but the weather was just fine for a three-hour walk (or hike, depending on your definition) and we finished with some food at a bakery.

This photo was taken on a small vacation in Switzerland. We saw the old train in a station and tried to find a good spot to take photo of it driving over the bridge. We barely got there in time, I could only take out my phone and hit the shutter button. I think under these circumstances, this is a really nice photo. Maybe I edited out some rather ugly power lines ;)....
This photo was taken on my last vacation in Brussels. It shows the Monument du Cinquantenaire in an ultra-wide view. Although it was spring, it was rather cold that day, contributing to an atmosphere where you feel little and unimportant. Gear and settings used for this image: iPhone 13 Pro Max 1.57mm, f1.8, 1/2,538s, ISO 32 (reported by image) Edited with the default photos app on iPad 9th gen.
This photo was taken by my current phone, the iPhone 12 mini. After using a standard Android phone for years, the step to it was immense in terms of photo quality. I found myself taking quite a few pictures with it. It’s not as good as my normal camera, but the form factor and ease of use mean I shoot more often. This photo was taken on a sunny November day on a small walk with my girlfriend around her home village....
This photograph nearly was forgotten, until I looked through my archive to find something to hang on my wall. When I took this photo, I wasn’t impressed but after revisiting it a year later, I found it quite good, edited it and ordered a big print with a frame. The image stabilization of my G9 really helped with this photo, as the shutter speed was set to one second and I didn’t have a tripod on hand....
Driving up a mountain is often worth it. Exhibit A: Just look at this picture. (And pay respects to the guy driving up on his bike instead of a car.)
