Ulrich Burkhalter's photostream  

Hi my name is Ulrich Burkhalter
I was born and raised in Switzerland in the Jura Mountains. I currently live in Georgetown, Kentucky USA.
I'm married to a wonderful lady from Salem, Oregon. So I also spend a lot of time in the Oregon wilderness.
My main interested in nature, macro, wildlife, landscape, cityscape, outdoor activities and travel photography.
Like everybody else, I have a dream camera that I don't have............
I started out in October 2005 in digital photography. Before that I used a Pentax SLR 35 mm and I had my own dark room. I love digital I can work on the pictures next to a roaring fire in my fire place. No bad smell in the dark..... But all the good principle of 35mm photography still applies to the tiny digital cameras. My first attempt on these galleries showed me right of the bat that I still need to install my camera on top of a tripod or monopod. Post sharpening does wonder but it is still much better to start out with the sharpest picture. A tripod will slow me down so I will have time to open my eyes and see more.

Besides Photography I like to do woodcarving, building small simple row boats and kayaks. I love everything with water mostly waterfalls and lake sunsets.
I hope to share Gods beautiful creation with as many people as possible with my photography.
Also I love to take people out into the outdoor and wilderness for them to experience it too.

God is the power of my life. Especially when our own plans fail........

I'm also the administrator of the & quota; Stream and waterfall & quota; group

Please just leave a comment if you like my pictures. Please no "FLASHY AWARDS"

Greetings Ulrich

P.S.
Please don't be offended if I don't add you as a contact once you've added me. I am trying to keep my contacts limited in order to be able to still look at everyone's photos and leave a comment here or there. From time to time, I also go through my contact list and when I come across a name and think "Now, who the heck is that?", we probably haven't looked at each other's photos for a few months and I might delete you.
