kurtmartin's photostream

SetsGalleriesTagsPeopleMapArchivesFavoritesProfile

First contact with photography I got as a student end of the 70´s. At that time I made some shots every year during holidays. But after getting a job I lost the interest in it . Five years ago I heard about that digital camera stuff and was interested again. But first I needed a computer and had to learn all these things about this machine. In 2008 I was sitting in the garden reading the book "Photoshop for dummies" and now I´m here posting some shots in Flickr.
It´s a great community for finding interested friends and for learning a lot about photography . I enjoy it to see wonderful shots from all over the world.
For over 20 years I´m working now as a prosecutor at the court of Koblenz. I´m not married and got no children, but there is a lovely lady in my life.

Greg from Maine says:

"I really enjoy the artistry and technical proficiency exhibited throughout Kurt's images. One just has to pause, take a breath, and say "wow,.. what a beautiful image." I have to warn other photographers though... This is usually followed by "I wish that I had taken that!""

Knight Zeisy says:

"Als ich das erste Bild von Kurt Martin sah, war ich sofort begeistert. Meine Begeisterung steigerte sich noch, als ich feststellte, das alle Bilder in seinem Photostream in der gleichen hochwertigen Qualität sind.
Die Werke bestechen nicht nur durch ein hervorragendes Composing, sondern auch durch Detailreichtum, Schärfe und Farbgebung.
Seine Art Fotos zu bearbeiten ist etwas ganz besonders bei flickr und es ist immer wieder ein Highlight wenn Kurt Martin ein neues Bild hochlädt.
Danke das Sie diese wunderbaren Werke mit uns teilen!"
