About Cord
Gerne fahre ich auf befestigten Wegen entlang von Flüssen, durch Marschland und am Meer entlang. Gerne überall dort, wo nicht der nervige Straßenverkehr verläuft. Mein absolutes Highlight zum Radfahren ist derzeit die Holländische Insel Texel. Die Gelassenheit der Niederländer, die vielen Wege und Straßen und ein fast perfektes ausgeschildertes Radwegenetz macht, neben der beeindruckenden Landschaft, Lust auf Radfahren.In der Fotografie bin ich mit Kameras der Marke Nikon im FX und Z-Format unterwegs. Im Objektivbereich liegen die Brennweiten zwischen 10-600mm. Je nach Kameraeinstellungen, Cropfaktoren und Telekonverter können die Brennweiten bis 1200mm verlängert werden. Meine Interessen liegen hauptsächlich in der Reise- und Landschaftsfotografie, wobei auch die Tierfotografie immer mehr in den Vordergrund rückt. Radfahren und Fotografieren ergänzen sich meiner Meinung nach sehr gut. Langzeitbelichtungen und die Hypervocale Distanz haben für mich in der Fotografie immer wieder einen ganz besonderen Reiz. Ein Stativ und ein Fernauslöser gehören immer in die Radtaschen bzw. den Rucksack.Du möchtest meinem Profil folgen ?

Today's tour started spontaneously at 5:40 am. To where ? With the temperatures, of course, in the direction of the Elbe, since there is usually a cool breeze blowing. And so it was.
From Lüneburg we went via Lüdersburg to Lauenburg. From there east of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal in the direction of Lanze…

six months I haven't done a bike ride for so long. Most of the time the weather didn't cooperate, or there was always something else to do. At least I managed to inspect the entire bike, change the brake pads, bleed the brake and tighten every conceivable screw. There was also a new chain with cassette…

Today's lap went towards the Elbe with a pleasant 16 degrees air temperature and a strong headwind. From Lüneburg to Bleckede, from there towards Lauenburg and Hohnstorf. On the Elbe Lateral Canal we went back to Lüneburg.
It was another great bike ride in the best October weather.

This morning at 5:15 a.m. we went to the Elbe. The idea was to take some shots on the Elbe during the nautical and blue hours. Later to make a small change of location in order to photograph the resident poultry and a few waterfowl at sunrise.
For this reason we drove to Stiepelse on the Elbe. I had already…

"De Ronde om Texel" is a catamaran regatta around Texel that takes place every year in June. Since it's already September and I don't have a catamaran available, I have to stay on land and take my bike.
With quite changeable weather I did the round clockwise this time. With a strong headwind, we went…

Yesterday I rode my bike in complete darkness and used the bike lights for the first time. Wow. The difference to the earlier bicycle lights is fantastic. So bright. You can see almost everything. I'm excited. For this reason I made another bike tour in the evening hours today.
At sunset I went to Paal…

I've been looking forward to photographing the Milky Way on Texel for a few months. Light pollution is said to be virtually non-existent on Texel and at sea. If the weather cooperates, a fantastic forecast. Yes, if the weather cooperates. If there weren't always these rain clouds.
Tonight…

Today's lap took place with an air temperature of 17 degrees and a slight headwind towards Oosterend. From Oosterend it then went to Oudeschild and further over "Den Hoge Berg" in the direction of Den Hoorn. Den Hoge Berg is the highest point on Texel at 15 meters in a beautiful nature reserve. Due to…

The weather is finally calming down. Eight force winds with heavy rain showers. In between there are always gaps in the sun, but usually not more than 10 minutes. And again and again the finest drizzle. And the whole thing over 3.5 days. So the bike stayed in the shed and the photo equipment in the closet…

What a strange year 23. It's already mid-September and somehow I haven't managed to get on the bike. It's only 102 kilometers. Unbelievable. Either there was no time or there was something else to do. What the hell. I hope there will be more time for cycling again next year.
At least I manage to go on…
