Bild des Monats: April - An der Südspitze Afrikas

Bild des Monats: April - An der Südspitze Afrikas

Da das derzeitige Aprilwetter seinem Namen alle Ehre macht, bereisen wir mit unserem Bild des Monats etwas wärmere Gefilde, genauer gesagt die oft unterschätze (wahre) Südspitze Südafrikas.

Wohin genau?

Aus irgendeinem Grund sind viele Menschen der Meinung, der südlichste Zipfel Afrikas wäre das Kap der Guten Hoffnung (Cape of Good Hope) ein paar Kilometer südlich von Kapstadt. Ein Blick auf die Landkarte verrät einem aber schnell, dass es noch so einige Flecken gibt, die viel weiter südlich liegen. Unter anderem auch der echte südlichste Punkt, das Cape Agulhas, knappe 1,5 Stunden mit dem Auto vom Kapstadt entfernt. Dieser hat gegenüber dem Kap der Guten Hoffnung vor allem den Vorteil, dass der beim Durchschnittstouristen ziemlich unbekannt ist. So verirren sich nur relativ wenige Leute zu diesem Ort, was den gemeinen Landschaftsfotografen natürlich freut. Machen wir uns also auf den Weg, der uns zugleich in die südlichste Ortschaft führt, das kleine Dörfchen "L'Agulhas" mit seinem Leuchtturm. Dieser ist zwar für deutsche Verhältnisse relativ klein, bietet aber genug Höhe für einen netten Ausblick über den Ort.

Ein Boardwalk führt einen dann ein paar hundert Meter weiter zu einem Landmark (siehe hier), das dann tatsächlich den südlichsten Punkt Afrikas markiert. Außer dem Fakt, dass hier auch die Grenze vom Indischen in den Atlantischen Ozean verläuft, ist das aber eigentlich nicht weiter spektakulär. Die paar Touristen, die es bis hierhin geschafft haben, drehen meistens an diesem Punkt wieder um. Zugegebenermaßen sieht der Strand in westlicher Richtung auch nicht sehr einladend aus. Wenn man allerdings vernünftiges Schuhwerk anhat und einen knappen Kilometer durchhält, gelangt man zum Wrack der "Meisho Maru 38", einem japanischen Fischerkahn, der 1982 hier gestrandet ist. Ironischerweise noch in guter Sichtweite des Leuchtturms. Die Tatsache, dass sich an dieser Küste aber über 140 Wracks befinden, deutet zugegebenermaßen aber auch auf schwierige Verhältnisse hin. Hier soll das Wrack zum Sonnenuntergang in Szene gesetzt werden.

Standort und Sonne

Folgendes Bild, ein Screenshot der Desktop-App von The Photographers Ephermeris, verdeutlicht den eigentlichen Plan:

Die rote Nadel liegt auf dem Wrack, die graue Nadel auf dem geplanten Standort der Kamera (wer das Tool nicht kennt, dem sei unsere Einführung auf Youtube empfohlen). Die orangefarbene Linie zeigt die Richtung der Sonne, wenn sie zum Untergang die Horizontkante kreuzt. Diese sollte also im Bild ein kleines Stück rechts hinter dem Wrack untergehen. Wie es dann aber immer so ist, kommt es dann halt doch anders. Der im Vorfeld für theoretisch gut befundene Standort hatte nämlich zwei Nachteile: 1. Das Wrack war von dort aus schon relativ weit weg, was das Bild sehr "tele-lastig" machte. Für meinen Geschmack zu sehr. 2. Damit verbunden nahm mir das die Möglichkeit einen ansprechenden Vordergrund mit ins Bild zu bringen, ohne dass das Wrack zu klein im Hintergrund verschwindet. Davon abgesehen ärgerte ich mich, dass man aus dieser Perspektive nichts von dem orangenen Schimmer sehen konnte, den sie Sonne an das Wrack warf. Ich entschied mich also noch ein gutes Stück an der Küste entlang nach westwärts zu gehen, so dass ich letztendlich auf die Sonne im Bild verzichtete, aber das Wrack deutlich besser in Szene setzen konnte. Wie man am Bild unten sieht, habe ich das Wrack sogar an der Küste "überholt". Für die Sonne hab ich dann schlichtweg ein eigenes Bild aufgenommen.

Das finale Bild

Die Eckdaten zum finalen Bild sehen dann wie folgt aus. Zum Einsatz kam eine Canon EOS 6D mit angelegtem EF 17-40mm f/4 L Objektiv und ND1.8 64x Graufilter. Das Bild wurde dann bei 17mm mit f/5.6 bei ISO100 aufgenommen. 15 Sekunden reichten aus, um das Wasser entsprechend glattzubügeln. Die Nachbearbeitung fiel mit einer leichten Kontrast- und Schärfeanhebung minimal aus.

    Hey there! If you're in the process of remodeling your kitchen or bathroom, you know how crucial it is to find reliable countertop contractors. But with so many options out there, it can feel overwhelming to figure out which contractor is the best fit for your project. Well, don’t worry! I’ve got some tips to help you find top-quality contractors who will deliver the results you’re looking for.

    The first thing to look for is a national ranking. Contractors who are recognized on a national level have proven their skills and reliability over time. Countertop contractors who consistently appear in trusted directories often have a solid reputation and a history of happy clients. Whether you’re searching for someone local or a contractor with a wider reach, national rankings can help you narrow down your choices.

    Another key factor is reliability. You want a contractor who not only delivers great results but also communicates clearly, sticks to timelines, and provides excellent customer service. The best contractors will offer transparent pricing, work with high-quality materials, and make sure you’re satisfied with the final result.

    When you’re browsing directories, be sure to check reviews and ratings. A reliable contractor will have positive feedback from clients who praise their professionalism and the quality of their work. I’ve done the heavy lifting for you by compiling a list of the best and most reliable countertop contractors in my latest blog post.

    If you're ready to hire a contractor that can take your countertops to the next level, don’t miss out on my blog. I’ll show you how to find the most skilled professionals in the industry, and make sure your project goes off without a hitch!

    Hey everyone! Are you debating between Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon and wondering which one is better for you? The truth is, both cinnamon varieties have their own unique qualities, but when it comes to safety and health benefits, there are some important things you need to know.

    Let’s start with Ceylon cinnamon, often known as true cinnamon. It’s prized for its mild, sweet flavor and is considered much safer for long-term use. Why? Because Ceylon cinnamon has very low levels of coumarin, a naturally occurring compound that can be toxic when consumed in large amounts. For those of us who love sprinkling cinnamon on our oatmeal, smoothies, or desserts every day, Ceylon is the healthiest and safest choice.

    Now, let’s talk about Saigon cinnamon. It’s often stronger and more pungent, which makes it perfect for certain dishes that need an extra punch of flavor. However, Saigon cinnamon comes with a downside—it contains much higher levels of coumarin than Ceylon cinnamon, making it less ideal for frequent consumption. So, if you’re using cinnamon regularly for its health benefits, Ceylon cinnamon is the better option.

    When it comes to Saigon vs Ceylon cinnamon, it all boils down to what you’re looking for. If you want something that’s both delicious and safe for your health, Ceylon cinnamon is the best choice. Want to learn more about the benefits of each and decide which one suits your lifestyle? I’ve written a blog post that covers everything you need to know. Don’t miss out on this essential info—check it out now!

    Hey cinnamon lovers! If you’ve ever found yourself standing in front of the spice aisle wondering which cinnamon is the healthiest and tastiest—Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon, this post is for you! Both of these cinnamon varieties are popular, but they have some key differences that could impact your health and cooking.

    First, let’s talk about Ceylon cinnamon. Often referred to as “true cinnamon,” it’s known for its sweet, delicate flavor and is much safer for regular consumption than Saigon cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is lower in coumarin, a compound that can be harmful in large quantities. This makes Ceylon a much better choice if you use cinnamon daily for its many health benefits, like controlling blood sugar and promoting heart health.

    Now, let’s compare that to Saigon cinnamon. While it’s stronger and more pungent in flavor, Saigon cinnamon also contains higher levels of coumarin. If you enjoy a bold, intense cinnamon flavor, Saigon might be your go-to, but it’s not the safest option if you’re concerned about long-term health risks.

    So, Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon—which one is best? Well, if you’re looking for a safer, more health-conscious option with a mild flavor, Ceylon cinnamon is your winner. But if you’re after a more intense spice for specific recipes, Saigon cinnamon might be the way to go, just in moderation.

    For a deeper dive into the benefits of each cinnamon type and to find out which one is truly the best for your health, I’ve written a detailed blog post to help you make an informed decision. Check it out and choose the right cinnamon for your needs!

    I'm amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I encounter a blog that's both
    equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head.
    The problem is something too few people are speaking intelligently
    about. Now i'm very happy I found this in my search for something relating
    to this.

    I recently stumbled across an incredible resource that’s been a game-changer for me in the world of cybersecurity: IT RoundTables. If you're like me—always on the hunt for meaningful discussions, practical solutions, and insights on securing critical systems—this might be just what you need.

    The concept is simple yet powerful. IT RoundTables provide a platform for online discussions focused on the convergence of IT and OT (Operational Technology). Unlike most forums cluttered with generic advice or thinly veiled sales pitches, these discussions are packed with real-world insights shared by top executives and cybersecurity experts. Imagine diving into conversations about asset discovery, secure remote access, and microsegmentation, all without worrying about being “sold” something.

    One of the best parts? It’s a nonprofit initiative, so the focus is entirely on advancing knowledge and addressing the massive talent gap in OT security. IT RoundTable even works to connect qualified professionals with leading companies, which is invaluable if you're building a career in this field.

    I’ve walked away from their events with actionable strategies and new connections with professionals who “get it.” It’s like having a backstage pass to the future of cybersecurity.

    If you’re serious about staying ahead in cybersecurity and want to be part of a community dedicated to securing the systems that power our lives, I highly recommend checking it out. You can join discussions, attend virtual events, or even just explore the blog for valuable insights. Visit ITRoundTable.co and see for yourself. You’ll thank me later.

    Let’s be honest: navigating the cybersecurity space can feel overwhelming. There’s no shortage of information, but finding a community of experts who truly share actionable, unbiased insights? That’s rare. That’s why I’m hooked on IT RoundTables.

    This platform has quickly become my go-to for engaging online discussions about IT and OT security. Whether it’s exploring challenges like segmentation, asset discovery, or secure access, the conversations are led by seasoned professionals from Fortune 500 companies and beyond. It’s like having a mentor and peer network wrapped into one.

    What sets IT RoundTables apart is the focus on collaboration and education. There’s no fluff here—just a nonprofit organization laser-focused on advancing OT security. They even partner with sponsors like Claroty Corporation to bring top-tier expertise into their discussions, ensuring the content stays sharp and relevant.

    But it’s not just about learning. IT RoundTables is also filling a critical gap by connecting professionals with job opportunities in OT security. As someone who’s seen how tricky it can be to find the right fit in this industry, I can’t stress enough how valuable their job placement program is.

    Whether you’re an experienced pro or just breaking into cybersecurity, this is a resource you can’t afford to miss. Head over to this site, and take a look at their upcoming events, blog content, and community. Trust me, the insights and connections you’ll gain are worth every second.
