ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Dolphins were accompanying our sailing ship in the Mediterranean Sea around Sicily/Italy. This was the first time I captured them jumping out of the water obviously playing with us/the boat. Unfortunately we reduced our speed, and as we were not as speedy as them anymore they left us after a few minutes. What an amazing experience anyhow!

AUTHOR
Born in Munich, Germany, my family always went to the countryside on the weekends, sometimes for lunch in a nice Bavarian restaurant, sometimes to one of the lakes around Munich, sometimes to do a little sightseeing to one of the castles of King Ludwig II. So as a youngster already I always took my camera with me to be ready to shoot the foreign looking Moorish Kiosk or the Venus Grotto in Linderhof Park.

In my 20s I had a SLR camera and changed to DSLR in 2000. Right now my camera is a Canon EOS 70D and a Canon EOS 5D Mark III.

In 2011 only I started editing my pictures. Painting inspired me to create a series of original pictures and their variations as I wanted to try out different colors and styles and modify completely the layout of the picture. My tools were Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® 4, Picasa™3, ifolor Designer. http://www.blurb.de/b/4970469-top-10-x-5

I am passionate about shooting landscapes, still life, architecture and animals. I particularly love shooting backlights.
