Relaunch of my photo blog and new address http://world.werner-kunz.com

http://world.werner-kunz.com

After the some weeks of experience with this blog, I realized that this blog needs a real purpose besides just featuring my photos. I do this already on flickr (and I think that is the right place for it).

I'm on a continuous journey to improve my photography. Thus, I try a lot of different photography as well as post-processing techniques and continuously looking for new techniques and inspirations to improve my photo work.

Therefore, the relaunched blog is meant to illustrate my journey to get a better photographer. Besides showing my photography and I explain the story behind the final result. I try to give tips and share experiences, what I think I have already learned about photography. Further, this website is my little place to highlight some of the artwork, photography, and tips I found across the Internet.

I would be more than happy, if you would make my new blog (http://world.werner-kunz.com) to one of your regular visit websites. You can also subscribe to the newsletter to get right away my new posts in your mailbox.

All the best and cu soon here

Town Hall of Bamberg in Germany

In the past I showed you already the view over Bamberg. Now it's time to go into this beautiful city. Fortunately, Bamberg was not destroyed in the second World War. Such pearls are seldom, but they exist.

Fenway Park in the Sunset

The fenway park in Boston is the Holy of Holies of a real Red Sox Fan. I had now as a german the first time the chance to experience such an event. Althought Baseball is not as fast as Soccer, the Red Sox Nation comes close to a German football stadium experience. I know now the text fo "Sweet Caroline" ;-) Go Red Sox!!!

Siegestor in Munich at Day

Siegestor in Munich at Day, originally uploaded by Werner Kunz (werkunz1).

I'm back in munich, one of the best cities in Europe. The photo is from the Victory Gate. What the Champs Elysees and the Arc de Triumph is for the people in Paris is the Ludwigstrasse and the victory gate for the people in Munich. (Pretty likely it was also copied from Paris). I worked there at this place during my study times and it was all the time nice for me to cross the street exactly at this point day and night ;-)

The Birds from Boston

The Birds from Boston, originally uploaded by Werner Kunz (werkunz1).

The faciating thing on post-processing is, how much you can do for a not so good shot and how much you can change it in a new direction. The scene above I liked in pretty much, but my focal lense was not close enough and there was too much distraction around it.

On my way to discover new techniques, I gave a texture by Tray Radclif a chance. I personally think the photo is now much more balanced and express more what I have seen in the bird group.

technique: 1Raw, f9.5, 1/350, iso250, 105mm, silvereffx B&W, texture bending: overlay
