Visited the “Schlossbeleuchtung” in Heidelberg for the first time yesterday, a nice show. I had somehow expected though, that the lighting of the castle and the fireworks would be simultaneous – wasn’t the case, could have been a more interesting image.

And I finally decided on a technical matter – what kind of camera to carry around on a daily basis. The D200 is a little large, a compact digital camera just doesn’t produce the image quality I want and compact film cameras like rangefinders… well, they might be stylish and get you great shots, but I’ve come to the conclusion that film just isn’t my medium of choice. So I went with the smallest current Nikon DSLR on the market.

A few assorted shots first, then the fireworks…
