I've been very busy with school lately and don't have so much time to take photos, but some of my recent shots I made in the little spare time I have between my tests and exams made it here and I can say I am fairly happy with what I got in the last time. I also submitted my first shot from film, wich is a great success, because I promised to do so almost one year ago Well as of the reactions you kinda liked it.
I will try to submit more in the future.
In the holidays (last week) I spent a day out with Martin shooting some landscape and nature stuff wich I didn't do for a long time, but I am really pleased with it. I also tried out my new lens that day. It's a macro tele, so you'll probably see some macros here and there. I have also been doing lots of sports in the last time and I hope everyone likes it.
After nearly 3 months some of you participated in my poll and it turned out that you like my portraits and architecture best. As I am fairly active with Architecture I am going to do some in the future, if I find willing models and some nice ideas, because I have a fable for emotional and spontaneus shots it is going to take it's time until I am happy with one or the other.
I also want to thank everyone who supports me- it's great to know that you enjoy my work!
Please check out my friends that are listed below - most of them are photographers, too.
Keep the good work up!
Cheers, Jan!

Wondered why I didn't comment as much in the last week? Well school started again here in Germany and I'm havin' kind of a hard time getting all the work done - already in the first week!
Well the next two years of school will be farily important to me because all the marks will go together in one big report that will be my qualification for university and my last school report ever, so I'll struggle a little harder.
I also want to thank everyone who commented, faved and watched me as I won't always have the time to answer everyone individually, but there is someone whom I want to give a big thank you for everything - it's my friend - I got his 20,000 pv and was awarded a feature and a subscription - he also featured me before, wich was kind of a big support! Thanks for that Martin!
Furthermore I have a new "Tool of the Trade" to mention in my ID - It's my father beautiful Olympus XA - a tiny rangefinder camera - great for street and silent shooting!

Well I think that's it for the moment - I'll constantly submit new stuff and hope you'll enjoy it!
Thanks for your support!
Yours Jan

During the first week we rented a log-cabin in the northern part of France where I enjoyed a nice time with my girlfriend and my parents. Afterwards, in the second week, we went for a boat trip in the middle of France, where I took an awful lot of pictures and had much fun cruising 'round the rivers.
All the stuff is shot on film with my Minolta that I learned to love on that trip. I shot 5 full rolls of 35mm film. Three rolls of crossed Kodak EPP wich was more of an experiment, but it turned out perfectly well (blue/yellowish hue) and two rolls of my trusted black and white Agfa APX 100 wich was perfect as expected.
So the first day I was back in town I had them developed and printed to pick out some favorites and have an overall impression.
Although I didn't buy my scanner yet I am thinking about scanning a few with my crappy office scanner and upload them into my scrapy, so maybe check them if you are interested. I am really happy with all of them and the Minolta equipment was so much fun to shoot. It just works!
I am also taking a few new skate shots tomorrow. I'll show'em if they turn out as I want them to.
Thanks everyone for supporting!
I am gonna check my messages these days. Didn't manage to answer them yet...
Keep the good work up!

So... the trip to Frankfurt with was awesome! We had a lot of fun taking pictures and walking round town. The results are also very good and I'll post them as soon as possible.
I received my annual school report today and I'm very happy with my grades. All A's and B's so I'll be fine.
I'll be in France for 2 weeks from tomorrow on, so I wont be able to post, comment or do anything here on DA 'caus we are in the middle of nowhere and I'll enjoy some time off of Internet, TV, mobile phone etc. ...
I hope everyone will have a good time and I promise to come back with a whole bunch of photos to submit and for you to enjoy.
I wish you all just the best!
Yours Jan

I really appreciate your comments, favs and watches! It means a lot to me and I promise I'll keep commenting, faving and submitting, too!
I also really enjoy your art, so keep submitting, too! It's always a joy to see the work of others and how skills, styles or people develop!
Anyways... Tomorrow I'm going on another little trip to Frankfurt with . I'm really looking forward to it and am hoping to get some shots to upload. I also ordered a Lightmeter for my analog cameras and will hopefully finally buy my Scanner (Canon 8800F) around August or Septmeber, so you'll probably find lots of analog stuff here around that time. I gotta apologize fpr always announcing, but not getting it started...
So thank you again for your support!
Keep it up!

To everyone whose work I recently commented on: Go on submitting fabolous work!
I found out once again that DA is a wonderful community full of open-minded, friendly and polite people.
I hope I will have the time for all that in the future, because it is great fun to exchange opinions with y'all.
Hopfeully you guys (are going to) like my gallery and the newer work I submitted recently. There will be more stuff in the future as school starts to be less stressful. I am planning on various things and hopefully everything will turn out well.
I am still struggling to buy a scanner as there are other things that I badly need. I found a good model now, but I don't know when I am going to buy it.
I hope everyone's enjoying my work.
Keep submitting, commenting and faving!
Greetings Jan
P.S.: I uploaded some paintings that I did for school. Please tell me how you like them. Should I upload one if I gotta do one?

There still is no film stuff yet, because I am too lazy (and short of money) to finally buy a scanner, but it is ranked high in my investment list! I promise ! In the meantime I bought some new equipment and am not yet 100% satisfied, so there are a few things that are on the shopping list. I hope I wasn't too lazy to write comments and stuff and I'll try to comment every deviation I get.
A thank you to everyone!
Keep deviating, commenting, faving and supporting!

I have lots of stuff going on and at the moment I am recovering from my dental surgery that I had on Monday. I hope you won't hate on me because I didn't comment on your images and didn't show any new stuff. There will be some new photos when I find the time to pick out a few.
I hope everyone's fine.
Keep supporting!

I finally saved up the money for a scanner and I will get it as soon as possible. So be aware of some nice grain and the feel of the good old days when photography was still about photography and not about taking thousands of pictures to getit right!
I hope everyone will enjoy my stuff
Thanks for your continous and brilliant support!

I lack a scanner to scan my negatives and slides. I have to save up some money for all the Hasselblad stuff I still need (lenses, mags, filters) and I didn't came to buying a scanner yet. Well I hope I will buy one soon. Anyone got experience with the Canon E8800? I thought about buying this one. Well I'll still keep uploading and thanks to everyone for the support. I recently recieved 14 favs from wich was kind of an extreme thing... So thanks to you and everyone! Keep uploading! Your stuff is always a big inspiration for me.

I fell in love with it by using my mom's Minolta that is mine now. I bought a used Hasselblad last week and am already patiently waiting for my first roll of Ilford-film . I am so sorry for not uploading anything, but lately I didn't have much time and if I had some I invested it in shooting skateboarders and I don't want these photos to take over my gallery as it is not really my style. It's more of a dedication to the sport that I always wanted to learn but I am not really talented so I gave it up, but through photographing friends doing it I can keep in touch with what I want(ed). So in the future there will be less uploads in general and less digital uploads... I hope my watchers wont kill me and I didn't give up digital at all. It's only the creative advantages of film that made me switch... I only wanted to tell that to you and yes... get a bit of attention
Keep uploading. Looking at your awesome stuff helps me find ideas and makes me happy!
Greets to everyone!
Keep it up!

Hey everyone!
I am stoked. Absolutely stoked. This day was (besides the day I got my first camera) the most important day for my photography in my whole life! I took part in 's contest for Portrait photography and I got 2nd! That is so unbelievable for me! I can't really believe that I really am one of the four winners of this contest... it has such a huge meaning for me! It gives me much much confidence! And on top of that I even got a new camera and will probably get one or two new lenses soon! My new D90 already does a good job, as you may have seen in my most recent deviation. I hope everyone's enjoying my work. Keep commenting please. It helps me a lot!
Hope to hear from you soon!
Thanks to all my supporters, that comment on my work and give me the confidence, critique and encouragement to keep on shooting!

I am doing quite fine in the last weeks and I finally took pictures again and uploaded some as you saw. In the future there are going to be more sport and portrait shots, because I am planning a few sessions with friends and local skaters and stuff, so be aware. I am still trying to get some ideas for cenceptual shots and am still waiting for some possibillities for taking a few landscapes or architecture photos, but the weather isn't on my side. I hope everyone's enjoying theyrselves and hopefully enjoying my work
'til later!

P.S.: Thanks to my friends that comment on every shot I upload! Your criticism and support is very helpful and highly appreciated!

School has started again and I am quite occupied by many things anyways, so I haven't got so much time. I'm still taking many pictures and eventually one or another will make it into my gallery, but not at the moment - I'm being lazy and well. I somehow find myself a bit uncreative. There will be some, but not now. So I hope everyone's enjoying hisself as much as I do and everything's fine.
Keep it up!

I had an outstanding trip and met many fascinaing people. In the end I've been staying with three different families and had lots of fun. And üictures didn't come short as well. At the side of shopping, sightseeing and just enjoying my trip I also was able to take the one or other shot that will make it to the DA gallery, so be aware.
Talk to you later...

As I am going to Detroit on Friday you got to wait for the results, as they aren't ready yet. There are also some other pics coming up. Mostly Architecture and a bit of other stuff that I shot around town. I hope everyone's fine. I'll be back in about two weeks with thousands of new shots from Michigan and so on, so be aware of many Deviations. Best wishes 'til then...

I really appreciate all that support and i'm glad that my uncreative period seems to be over... I'll have time to take some new pictures in the next days, so you'll probably see a deviation once in a while... Thank you for your support again..
'til later and have a good time...

UPDATE: I even got featured in 's journal... I am so so proud!

Somehow my new deviations are of a kinda bad quality. I', sorry for that and I don't know why the quality changed from the original on my PC. I'll try to change that. Thanks for your support
EDIT: The problem's fixed so my deviations will be nice and clear again, but that doesn't compensate the lag of creativity I am suffering of... some advice?
