An old house on a hill surrounded by leafless trees. Above is a
      blue sky with a contrail coming in from the left, ending right above the
      house.

The main feed of this site now automatically includes posts from my Photo Journal and Dan’s Polaroids.

This way, I do not have to manually link those here, and one can follow all my posts with a single feed. If you see a bunch of new entries, you now know it’s because I messed with my feed.

Multiple greenhouses with snow on the roof. A fence in the
      foreground, trees in the background. Everything is covered in snow.
Ice cold winterland.

Rows of plant pots covered in snow fading into the
      background.
I think it's too cold for Polaroids to develop properly.

The river Rhine shot from a bridge, which you see a piece of
      railing in the bottom right. You see the snow covered shore and the
      horizon behind that in the upper third of the image. The front half of a
      ship is coming in from the left.
Bridges are cool.

A quasi-neon sign of a car wash Mr. Wash advertising their happy
      hour '2nd wash, half price' (in German).
2nd wash, half price.

🎬 Arctic

Movie poster for “Arctic”.

Like Cast Away in the snow. I would have like a little more reasoning regarding why he was in the situation in the first place. But I enjoyed Mads Mikkelsen and some great winter landscapes.

Open WP Admin From The Command Line

I use WP-CLI for pretty much everything these days. And since I am more and more working from a Linux system and thus practically living on the command line, I wanted to have a quick way to open WP Admin right there. I added the following shell function to my bash config fil...

A girl in pink snow clothing on a tiny sledge. A woman on a

A rectangular pizza photographed from the side. A pizza slicer
      blurred in the background.
Finally a day without agenda. Stayed home all day. Made pizza.

2025 Retrospective

In 2025 I archived 13,975 photos, 4,077 of which I marked as favorites. (2024: 16,217 archived, 4,633 favorites). That is the smallest number since I have been actively tracking it. One of the main reasons is probably that I am attending fewer events as a photographer. 20% o...

From the driver's seat, photographing the adjacent red car,
