Here you’ll find photos (#holgersfotos) 📷, occasional rants 😠, and playful quips 🤪 from an exiled Swabian stranded in the Munich outback.

I would self-diagnose the style of my photography as clean, geometric, often symmetry-driven, sometimes even minimalistic. I love strong contrasts from shooting into light, and the combination of vibrant warm and cold colors. If this sounds all right to you, check out my photographs posted on Mastodon: https://gallery.ho1ger.de/.

I take all photos in RAW format and edit them in Lightroom. I sometimes use the generative fill tool in Lightroom to clean up images. I occasionally use Photoshop for more advanced edits, such as replacing the sky or adding motion blur.

I also blog about photography, travels, trips, and sometimes nerdy stuff: https://ho1ger.de.

You’ll also see me boosting great (or simply funny or whimsical) photos from other users — because that’s how the good stuff spreads! I stopped boosting users' content who only share and promote their own work and/or do not interact with others.
