Unfortunately, you are not allowed to take pictures inside…

About this Weblog

I already have several websites with photo galleries - so why create an additional Photolog. Scanning a large number of photos from a trip and designing a photo gallery takes lots of time and I already have a large "backlog" of unscanned photos. Also, often, there are interesting photo news, tips and tricks that do not really fit on the main website. Weblog technology does not help with the scanning, but makes it very easy to quickly publish a photo or a short article. Also, this format is perfect for individual contributions - even without any further context. Now, have fun! Laurenz ...
