Walks in a beautiful landscape

 

For over four years I walk in the beautiful countryside with interesting sights , which belongs to the municipality Holle . In October 2011, I decided to make regular recordings of nature around the Castle Derneburg . The result was the beginning of February 2013 my first Picture Book ( " Castle Derneburg and nature ").

 

 

      Castle Söder

The horses of Söder Castle

 

At the same time, I also began Photos from Söder Castle and the environment take . My first designs were horses belonging to renowned horse breeding of the castle. This I could observe in the pasture behind the property with the beautiful autumn mood I get striking images . The completion of the fourth Picture Book ( " The Söder Castle and the environment" ) , however, has lasted until the end of August 2013. The reason was the Picture Book No. 2 ( " The ruin Wohldenberg and the seasons " ) and the Picture Book No. 3 ( "Nature at Hackenstedt " ) that I have completed first .

 End of October 2011, I was with my wife JUTTA very close to the paddock , in the garden of the Lady Chapel Söder . I had the difficult task to take pictures of squirrels , let myself in and JUTTA wanted to help me. After a few attempts it worked but , as I have described this action in my book " Söder Castle and the environment." In the pasture we found only a solitary mold, the JUTTA photographed very nice.

 

 

The lonesome mold

 

Over the winter I did not visit the area from Söder castle. Only in March 2012, I was back in this area and made corresponding receptacles . On the good belonging to the castle Söder , there was a hive of activity . Two girls came with their horses from the stables and led their horses on foot to the nearby riding place. Young fellow rider I discovered early May 2012 beneath the castle Derneburg near the fish ponds.

Riders at Derneburg Castle

The fox and the horses

Beginning in June 2012 , I managed a very special photo adventures . When I parked my car in the parking lot in front of the Lady Chapel Söder , I discovered on the opposite-lying paddock a fox who moved among the great horses. I knew if I would get out now , this would immediately disappear . I stayed in the car and shot from there many interesting photos. Later still came to a grey heron .

The carriage ride in the Lüneburg Heath

Mid-August 2012 , my wife JUTTA and I were the Lüneburg Heath and took part in the carriage ride. The draft horses , which were harnessed to the carriages were of a much more severe impact than the horses that I have described. It was on this day in August very warm (30 deg. C ) and we were glad when we arrived back at our apartment cool in the afternoon.

Feeding the ponies

In early October 2012, I sat back in my Opel Combo Tour in the parking lot in front of the Lady Chapel Söder . As an older man ( grandfather? ) appeared with a little girl . They approached the paddock , which is opposite the car park. Immediately came ponies that had the feeding probably already expected. Larger horses were not to be seen. This time I stayed for photographing in the car because I did not want to disturb the scene.

Beautiful horses in Hackenstedt

End of October 2012, I was thrilled with the colorful autumn forest above Hackenstedt and shot very interesting photo opportunities. Still greater was my excitement when I discovered real race horses on a paddock on the edge. On my walk to a bench at the end of the upper forest I always came along with the horses and was able to enjoy their majestic elegance.

 

 

Horses in the paddock

 

 

More than 8 months ( until June 2013 ) I had to wait until I could discover in the pasture at Hackenstedt these elegant animals again , because in the meantime they were in their winter quarters. I was in the meantime, but not inactive , because I could - also enjoy looking at the colorful butterflies - beside the horses . Recently it was one of the latest Picture Book ( "Butterflies ").

The horses suffer from the heat

On Wednesday, the 19th June 2013 , it was very hot (33 deg . C) and when I came to the paddock I found the horses in a very lethargic state lying on the floor . Nowhere there was shade or a shelter . After that it was indeed cool ( we were in pleasant temperatures a week's holiday in "Denmark "). But in July and August came a veritable heat wave with corresponding temperatures . My last pictures were taken at above 19.6. After returning from our vacation , end of June , 2013, I could not find horses on pasture . This was her rescue!

Söder Castle and the horses in the autumn

Almost over a period of two years ( October 2011 til July 2013 ), I can watch this racy and elegant horses in the pasture . They were a veritable feast for the eyes . With the horses in the paddock at the edge of the forest of Hackenstedt I managed over time even closer contact . They had gotten used to me and came galloping when they recognized me on the fence . How the Scottish Highland cattle in Hutewald the Wohldenberg so have these beautiful horses developed into a recurring event in my life . Moreover I am very pleased.

The end of September 2013 resulted in the early morning but ideal conditions that me nice shots of the horses reach belonging to the Castle Söder.
