I Love Palm Trees

Somewhere up in the Keys

Dog's beach in Key West

I have many of palm tree shots in my archives and I would like to share these pictures with you - I hope you'll enjoy!

Beaches and Palms

Single palm tree in evening light

Empty beach - where are all the tourists gone?

At noon in Fort Zachary Taylor.

Look up to the sky - but watch out for falling cocos nuts.

Palm group at Smather's Beach in the last sunbeams of a hot and humid day in paradise.

Turquoise Sea

It's hot again in paradise - this is the perfect day to go to the beach and have a swim in the turquoise ocean - wish you were here?

The "Blue Lagoon"...

This is one of my favorite pictures and one of my best sellers at the pier, where I'm putting up my little booth (almost) every night - selling my photography to the tourists from all over the world.

I call it "The Blue Lagoon" and you will find these inviting place at Smather's Beach on the Atlantic side.

New and old - everything in life has two sides

Sunday Morning in the Keys - What to do?

Today is Sunday and it's only ONE thing to do: RELAX and ENJOY!

Five Sunsets to watch in Key West - Series 8

The sun decided to set behind the clouds - what left is that radiant red sky.

To enjoy a sunset together is much mor fun and it gives you that romantic feeling.

A catamaran is on the way home to the harbor after this majestic sunset.

The last reflections of another island sunset.

Sailing away into a breathtaking sunset light.

A Visit to the Dry Tortugas - Series 6

Take a ride with this small airplane for visiting the Dry Tortugas Islands or catch the Ferry early in the morning.

This picture is the view from the top of Fort Jefferson and it gives me a feeling of eternity, peace and freedom: only blue water, clouds and horizon where ever your eyes are looking around.

After a very intresting guided tour in Fort Jefferson, take a walk on the walls all around the fort and enjoy nature, sunshine and the blue color of the water. You also will see many snorklers enjoying the crystal clear underwater scene.

It's just a perfect day out there - another part of paradise!

The white sandbar is the bird sanctuary across from Fort Jefferson.

The Color Blue

The Bounty

This is the original Bounty - sitting in the Gulf in front of Mallory Square - on that they filmed the movie "Pirates of the Carribean" with Jonny Depp. And of course this boat is a big tourist attraction every year.

Dies ist die original "Bounty" auf der sie den Film "Piraten der Karibik" mit Jonny Depp drehten. Sie sitzt jedes Jahr fuer eine kurze Zeit draussen im Golf gegenueber von Mallory Square, wo wir arbeiten. Und natuerlich ist sie eine grosse Turistenattraktion auch.

A short Trip up to Marathon

Yesterday we took a short trip up to Marathon and stopped here and there on the way. This picture shows a inviting privat beach scene at Geiger Key.


Gestern haben wir einen kleinen Ausflug gemacht, die Keys hinauf bis nach Marathon. Wir hielten an diversen netten Orten, wie an diesem kleinen, sehr einladenden Beach auf Geiger Key.




Most everybody dreams of having a little island like this for their own privat getaway. Do you? It's right here in the Keys, come and get it.


Soviele traeumen von einer eigenen Insel wie diese hier. Gehoerst auch Du dazu? Sie ist hier in den Key's, die Insel deiner Traeume!

This is a view out from the car of the 7-Mile-Bridge who is connecting Big Pine Key and Marathon together. Between is nothing than water, water, water.... to the left the emerald green water of the Gulf of Mexico on the other side the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean.

Dies ist die 7-Meilen-Bruecke, welche Big Pine Key verbindet mit Marathon. Dazwischen liegt zur linken Seite das jadegruene Wasser vom Golf von Mexico und auf der andern Seite das tiefblaue Meer des Atlantischen Ozeans.

Almost there..... Marathon is just some miles away and visible already.

Bald sind wir dort, nur noch ein paar Meilen zu fahren, Marathon ist bereits in Sichtweite.

This is the view on the way back home to Key West: the old 7 Mile-bridge on the right and the new bridge to the left in the sparkling late afternoon sunshine.

Auf der Heimfahrt wieder nach Key West sieht man rechts die alte, nicht mehr befahrene 7-Meilen-Bruecke und links die neue Strasse im glitzernden Abendsonnenschein.

My new bike

By the way: I got a new bike! I hope it will take me and my camera easy around the island. For sure it's more convenient for me now than to walk...!

Ich moechte Euch hiermit mein neues Fahrrad vorstellen. Es wird mir und meiner Kamera sehr gute Dienste leisten rund um die Insel auf Fotojagd zu gehen. Auf jeden Fall bestimmt angenehmer als zu Fuss unterwegs zu sein!

Sunset Sailboat is coming back

In this picture I have captured the last sunbeams at the Hilton harbor. The sunset sailboat is coming back to Key West slowly and enjoying the last pink lights of this terrific sunset. In the background you can see Sunset Key Island.

Dieses Bild enstand im Hafen beim Hotel Hilton. Das Sunsetboot gleitet gemaechlich in den allerletzten Sonnenstrahlen eines fantastischen Sonnenunterganges zurueck in den Hafen von Key West. Und im Hintergrund ist Sunset-Key Insel ersichtlich.
