after all, that’s not really surprising: Google Maps wasn’t really used for listings. Google simply didn’t get it rolled out to a larger part of the agents and brokers. Their main tool is still the MLS (in the US) and replacing MLS will take some time…although, we can see already the first attempts which look…
Month: January 2011
Cold morning
Monday morning in Munich. Front of my car. Taken with a Canon 5D Mark II and the Voigtlaender 40mm f2 at 1/400sec, f2 and ISO100. I love the details on the pic! Click on it and see a larger version and you know what I mean. Click on picture to enlarge.
Some more shots: Voigtlaender Ultron 40/f2
This little lens makes some serious fun!
The United Nations Building from a different perspective
I was walking by the the UN headquarter just to figure out that the building seems to be under construction…at least the upper third floors. What you see is the facade of the building with a reflection of Manhattan’s skyline.
Time Square Kiss
A famous picture! Retaken just yesterday: The original picture has a history: V-J Day in Times Square is the name of the photograph taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt that portrays an American sailor kissing a young woman in a white dress on V-J Day in Times Square on August 14, 1945. The photograph was originally published…
New York Hotel Impressions
Our hotel is surprisingly nice – expected worse for that price considering that Times Square is just around the corner! Here are some shots of the hotel. All taken with the Zeiss Planar 50mm 1.4. Click on the images to enlarge them.
Comparison: Voigtlaender Ultron 40mm f2 vs. Zeiss Planar 50mm f1.4
I have taken 2 quick pictures in my hotel room. One with the Ultron, the other one with the Zeiss. Zoomed into the Ultron picture in order to make it comparable to the Zeiss. Can you tell the difference? Here are the original shots. No development, just the raw conversion to jpeg with Lightroom. I…
New York pics: Voigtlaender Ultron 40mm 2f

Christoph Janz joins Propertybase Board
Christoph Janz, a serial entrepreneur and angel investor, has invested in Propertybase and will join our board.

Not only Christoph has contributed a lot to our company…
New toy in the house: Voigtlaender Ultron 40/2.0
Got this new lense a couple of days ago. Here is a first picture. Didn’t have so much time therefore a cooking picture only – for the moment. So far, great little baby! Sharp, nice bookeh…although not as strong as my Zeiss Planar 50/1.4. Need to make for pics to be sure. I am in…
