i don't do anything artsy. some of my pictures are post processed in terms of colour. some of them are cropped, and i often do correct the curves/levels. i only upload 1000x1500px. except of resizing, most pics are pretty much out-of-cam.

as mentioned, i do not intend to produce anything like art, i only have an undeniable fun of snapping around and posting results as a kind of diary. i hardly pay any attention to composition, lights, colours, angles, because i have barely any idea of these. so, if you discover some cool "compo" or "lighting" or whatever, then feel free to tell me about this coincidence - or don't. in case i just produced an offense to your eyes, then just keep it for yourself, anyway. thank you. ;D

    "Kiwi hat die beste Kamera der Welt - zu diesem Zeitpunkt ist eine Fuji-Kleinbildkamera und alles was nicht festgeschraubt ist, wird damit bedingungslos zu Boden geknipst. Kiwi ist der erste und einzige Bike-Messenger, der das Panorama neu erfindet: Das Kiwirama - mittlerweile legendär - lässt all diese langweiligen Hochglanz-360-Hightechrundumsichten wertlos erscheinen. Auch seine gigantische Sammlung an "Runterfahrgeräten" - Fahrstühle Hamburgs, kann sich mittlerweile sehen lassen. Ich bin gespannt auf Kiwi's nächste Abenteuer..."

    ""kiwi_kirsch will have the chance to review this testimonial before it is published, so don't bother with something rude or nasty."
    LOL, I have to be carefull, then!

    Of all the giraffes with many personalities I like this one the best. I had the honour to meet this crazy bikemessenger in real life, and he is in fact much smaller than on his pictures! Not that being tiny should be an issue when it comes to being as cool as herr Kirsch.
    Somehow I get the feeling his (flickr)friends will make fun of me, but bold and rude as I am, I do not care! Oh, and I agree also with williedinges's testimonial!

    Meet you in 14 and a half hours!

    "mr. kirsch (also called kiwidinges) is a really funny guy, with a great sense of humor! he is also one of the best "guess where hamburg" guesser, and posts difficult pictures, too! I think it will also be fun to meet this biker off-line :-)"
