Frohe Ostern - Happy Easter - Feliz Páscoa - 嬉しいイースター


Happy Easter Posted by Picasa

Finally...


Posted by Picasa ...after a time of 6 months, I had the opportunity visiting my parents place again.

I was really glad about this and to see all of my family again because
It was hard to get the assent. You must know people in office lost my application for leave. They couldn't find it. So I had to ask many times and do many phone calls before I got the assent on Friday evening.

When I arrived there weather was wonderful though, but I also could see nature isn't so far yet as at my current place of living and my work. I only could see crocuses, snowdrops and spring snowflakes. But a good sign was bees began to fly again.

Marsh Area "Langenhägener Seewiesen" - A Place Where Cranes Meet


Yesterday, I drove to a marsh area called "Langenhägener Seewiesen". This place is near my home town Lübz and well known for its cranes which meet there before flying to Spain, Portugal and the nort of Africa. As you can see you also can enjoy wonderful sunsets.

I also tried taking pictures of flying cranes. If the pictures are well done I'll also post these here. Posted by Picasa

Although it's already autumn but it's wonderful to see bumble bees .... Posted by Picasa

For a lot of spiders and their webs we call summerlike weather in September "indian summer" (Altweibersommer) here because against sunlight gossamer look like hair of old women. Posted by Picasa

Although it's close to the end of Summer, but if you have immortelle (German: Strohblume) in your garden you can see a lot of butterflies around them these day. This butterfly is called "Kleiner Fuchs" (Small Tortoiseshell). Posted by Picasa

Remember and never forget


Remember and never forget

Monday, August 6h 1945 has changed the world. At 8:15 AM (JST), the first A-Bomb was dropped from the one of the B-29 bombers that flew over Hiroshima on that day.

It generated an enormous amount of energy in terms of air pressure and heat. In addition, it generated a significant amount of radiation (Gamma ray and neutrons) that subsequently caused devastating human injuries.

The people who saw this bomb often say "We saw another sun in the sky when it exploded." The heat and the light generated by the A-Bomb were far stronger than bombs which they had seen before. When the heat wave reached ground level it burnt all before it including people.

The strong wind generated by the bomb destroyed most of the houses and buildings within a 1.5 miles radius. When the wind reached the mountains, it was reflected and again hit the people in the city center. The wind generated this weapon caused the most serious damage to the city and people.

The radiation generated by the bomb caused long-term problems to those affected. Many people died within the first few months and many more in subsequent years because of radiation exposure. Some people had genetic problems which sometimes resulted in having malformed babies or being unable to have children.

It is believed that more than 140,000 people died by the end of the year. They were citizens including students, soldiers and Koreans who worked in factories within the city. The total number of people who have died due to the bomb is estimated to be 200,000.

New digital cam

Do you know this? You take pictures with your actual cam, but you are in the opinion your pictures are not good enough anymore because there is a problem: you like to take macro shots but you can't get close enough to the object that you can see each detail sharp and clearly...also after making a cut out..

I also had this problem, and if I wanted to take macro pictures I had to take the digital cam of employer. But last Sunday, I decided not to use this cam anymore for private things and to buy an own digital cam finally. After doing a lot of researches at the internet and catalogues, I decided for a NIKON Coolpix 4600 because I could find there a lot of extra programs and the detail list was not so patchy ...and if you already can find the details you are looking for, I'm sure you also would decide for this product because it's simply user friendly. Do you agree?Another reason to decide for this cam was, this camera is reasonably priced with all it's functions.

So I ordered this camera immediately on Sunday.

On Thursday, when I came from work to enjoy my lunch break the postman ...ok, it's a woman...brought this cam. But I only could unpack this cam because my lunch break was almost over.

But in the evening, I took some first pictures in the garden...and after taking the first pictures I was really glad about this decision because the result of pictures was more than satisfying for me, although I did something wrong at first...not to use automatic if I want to take macro pictures. :) Sometimes it's better to use the manual of a new product at first. :).... and here you can see some results of taking pictures from Thursday to today I hope you'll like and enjoy these. :)
