c.gennert. Get yours at bighugelabs.com/flickr

My intention is to show the world I am living in. I am a great fan of B/W photography but I am also interested in colour photography. I like to use duotone in B/W or working with textures. I like dark parts, dark shadows in my photos. It is a matter of taste and I think a photo looks good with some dark areas. It doesn't make any sense to me to create a HDR on a sunny day.



But I want to add something. If you want to make me as a contact it would be nice if you comment on my photos and not just "hit and run". I can't stand the situation anymore that I comment on my contacts and get no response. And if this happens several times I will delete this contact. Sorry to say but flickr is not a one way site. It is a community. It has something to do with responding. This is sometimes difficult but if someone is leaving a comment on one of my photos I will comment as well.





I removed the list of the camera equipment I use because I think this is stupid. Who cares about the equipment? It is often like a shopping list.

    "Combining the eye of an artist and the heart of a story-teller, Carsten loves to take people with him to see the sights he's encountered. Everything from the grandeur of the Vatican, to the animals in the zoo, to an ancient Roman tavern, Carsten captures it with his camera and shares it with us! Carsten's images are both informative, enrapturing and beautiful! He's also the first person to encourage his friends, and is constantly there with his generosity and spirit of sharing on flickr! Carsten you do beautiful work!"

    -manchmal unnoetigerweise zu selbstkritisch-

    Er bietet eine tolle Auswahl an Motiven und diese sind immer sehr gut in Szene gesetzt.

    Ich freu mich, Carsten zu einem Flickrfreund zaehlen zu koennen und bin auf jedes seiner Fotos gespannt.

    Auf seine sehr durchdachten Kommentare zu meinen uploads bin ich schon vorab neugierig und freu mich auch darauf :O)"

    "Carsten Gennert has a very gritty, beautiful style. I particularly love his street photography, for how tangible and real it is. Many of his photographs are of things so unspectacular that the fact he has managed to make remarkable photographs out of this is amazing. Photos to look up to."
