Welcome

... on my website and have fun browsing the picture galleries.
Visit the world of nature photography.

If somebody sees something on his raids which is impressive and raised, he pauses in a devout silence for a moment. For him it isn't necessary to hallow one of seven days because for him every day is sacred.

Mammal photos - The newest pics from mammels, 29 Jun 2022

The forelegs and hooves of Red Deer, whether from male or female, are dangerous weapons that can cause serious injuries to the opponent

The sound of the camera shutter betrayed me at the Red Deer stags

The Red Deer stag can scratch its back wonderfully with its antlers

In a Red Deer herd there are always animals that interrupt the browsing and secure

The Red Deer stag is not disturbed by the wild sow

The antlers of the male Red Deer are used not only for combat and defence

Here are the latest images from the realm of mammals.

Roe Deer photos - Our least deer species is one of my favorite photo subjects, 23 Jun 2022

Suddenly a Roebuck yearling appears and seeks direct contact to the Roebuck, after the first contact he challenges him to a playful fight

An old acquaintance, already 5 days before I was able to photograph the Roebuck in this part of the district

The Roebuck tussle the playful challenge to fight from the yearling and a friendly scramble began

The female Roe Deer looks tensely at the photographer, moves around him and tries to get a scent of the stranger crouching on the ground

The last photo of the Roebuck, then he goes into the protective cover and while he slowly moves away he barks extensively

The Roe Deer photography is one of my favorites. At first pics from the behaviour and otherwise many photos from different bucks are my target, too.

The female Mallard stands sleeping on a tree root sticking out of the water, at irregular intervals the bird lifts its head a little way out of its feathers and observes the surrounding

The Common Redstart also called Eurasian Redstart or simply Redstart

Here you can see the newest bird pictures. Also this year new bird species are added again and again. Among other things, I finally managed to take pictures of the Black Redstart. Let us see what else there is to photograph this year.

The last autumnal leaves of the Common Beeches form a beautiful color contrast to the brown and green tones of late fall, due to the wetness the Athelia Lichen thrives on the bark of the beech trunks

A natural mixed deciduous forest in northern Germany, especially valuable is the area-wide occurrence of Rough Horsetail

Red Deer rut 2021, 04 Nov 2021

The first photo of a Red stag in my new Red Deer area, here are atmospheric pictures possible

A Red Deer stag with beautiful dark and evenly shaped antlers carefully enters the aisle and I am amazed at the large number of different stags that appear in front of my camera that day

After a cold but comfortable night in the car a fantastic rut morning awaits me and if that was not enough, a roaring Red stag stands in the first morning light with his small herd on a heath in the forest

Even if this day was not very successful from the photographic point of view this encounter with an impressive Red stag stays unforgettable

A Red Deer stag with broken antler migrates to a large heath area in the early evening

Two Red stags look at a roaring stag, a short time later they move in his direction

The first 14 days of the Red Deer rut 2021 were not really crowned with success. At the end, I had only 6 usable images. And the last of this pictures was taken at the end, on the return trip, in a previously unknown area. Discovered of course as almost always, by the research of my woman. A few days later, I visited the NEW area again, spent the next 5 nights in the car and was at the end very satisfied. The Red Deer are very shy, but the area itself offers very good possibilities. Of course, the photo opportunities are rare, but thanks to the beautiful landscape and the otherwise exciting location, there is a special predator here, it can always come to exciting encounters. Here I was certainly not the last time and probably I will even this year at least once more look over.
