I shoot professionally and am available for private and commercial commissions globally.
I love fizzy drinks, wearing hooded sweatshirts, listening to music too loudly. I love to shoot, whatever, whenever. My favourite projects often involve people doing what they love doing.
I have shot / assisted for the following clients:
I also produce a limited number of fine art landscapes of my local area just for fun. I love where I live and love showing it off.”
Industrial Landscape Photography Blog | Michael Kirste
“My name is Michael Kirste and am working alongside my studies in photography. Photography I came with 14 years ago when I had a small get paid to analog camera. At that time I have photographed mainly on vacation and traveling.
In school I attended a photography course where I learned the basic techniques of composition, exposure techniques and developing. Later came to my first digital compact camera. Now I use a digital SLR camera.
I am particularly interested in the nature photography (landscape, macro) as well as night shots of Industrialization and cities. The Photograph me a lot of friends because I can relax and switch off this. The possibilities for post-processing on the PC fascinate me. With my photos I want to capture the beauty of nature inspire other people.
Your comments and criticism in the photographs I am very pleased. Have fun looking at the photos…”

One of the most interesting things I enjoy about visiting photography blogs is not just the postings you may discover, but also the links to photography sites other commenters leave behind. I find many quality photographers just by following these little “breadcrumbs”. So, I recently did a little research (thanks InfoPreneur) on how to add more value to the wonderful comments each of you leaves from time to time and discovered a cool WordPress plugin, CommentLuv.
CommentLuv is actually “breadcrumbs on steroids”. As you craft a comment and enter your contact information, this plugin goes out and searches for your last posting and incorporates it with your comment. Pretty sweet. So now, not only are you leaving behind your insightful comment, but also a great way for me and other viewers to see what you are currently writing about on your blog. Here’s the author’s description of how CommentLuv works…
“This plugin will visit the site of the comment author while they type their comment and retrieve a selection of their last blog posts, tweets or digg submissions which they can choose one from to include at the bottom of their comment when they click submit…”
The only downside to this plugin I’ve found is, once installed, it does not address the previously posted comments. To the 2000+ visitors who took the time to comment in the past, I’m sorry. But what a great reason to leave a new comment today! Hope you enjoy this new feature.
Washington DC area Sports Photographer | Mike Bahniuk
Currently, I am working on what will more than likely be a 365 Project using exclusively Mobile Device (cell phone) imaging. There is always a camera around, you can always capture and create.
All photos on this site are original work, unless otherwise stated. I invite you to review and comment on my work (criticize if you must) but please don’t steal it.”
“I am originally from the United States but I have been living in Paris for the last 6 years. The French make me laugh, they are so complicated yet endearing. I am a professional photographer and I have been shooting film since I was 10 years old, but what I love about Tumblr is being able to post the “non-book” shots.”
