Night shooting with the Sony RX1R
Olivier Glod
Ever since my trip to Dublin with the amazing RX1R, I wanted to explore its night shooting capabilities further. All I can say is: WOW!
So far, I've been out twice with it => Once in Echternach and once in Luxembourg City.
Here's a couple of shots from those two brilliant walks.

On Saturday, January 18th 2014, the Ville d'Echternach celebrated three of its most deserving citizens. Yours truly was very fortunate and documented the first ever "Bene Meritus" awards ceremony :-)

Some days are just perfect, and I would like to share a recent example with you. This is the story of Anne & Tim and how they took a leap of faith, letting me document one of the most important days in their life. Kick back, relax and enjoy :-)
Read MoreSanta came to town
Olivier Glod
I'm going to let you in on a little secret: I know Santa personally :-)
In Luxembourg, he goes by the name of "Kleeschen".
As we're good friends (and I'd much rather be on his "nice" list), I agreed at once to follow him around when he asked me if I would like to document this year's visit to Echternach.
Read More1.5 days in Edinburgh - An open love letter to Scotland and Fuji
Olivier Glod
This post is really special to me and has been a long time in the making, so I do hope with all my heart you like it as much as I do.
Benny, my best friend, and I have quite a bit in common: a.o. our love for our families, photography, whisky and Scotland. He recently was blessed with a second child, the lovely Lucy, baby-sister to the now 3 y.o. absolutely adorable Jules.
In order to celebrate our birthdays (both in July, only about two weeks apart), we decided to take a short trip together in June to the amazing city of Edinburgh.
The main focus of this trip was to have a brilliant time, combining sightseeing, photography and various culinary expeditions ;-)
Read MoreBlack October
Olivier Glod
I'll tell you straight away: my October sucked. Countless hours overtime at the office, bad weather, crappy light and now the flu. Well, dear November, here's hoping...
However, I did manage to catch about half an hour of alright shooting conditions at the lake in Echternach and still had some backlogged pictures of my first walk in the woods with the X100S, so I actually have something to share.
This leads me to the actual subject of this blogpost: Lightroom presets.
Read MoreA grim reminder and a celebration of valour
Olivier Glod
Two weeks ago, I finally managed to visit two sites which had been on my to-do list for quite some time: the German Military Cemetery, followed by the Luxembourg American Cemetery and Memorial. Both sites are within a three minutes' drive from each other in Sandweiler.
Read MoreProcrastination
Olivier Glod
I apologise, it has been quite a few weeks since my last post.
The exhibition ended on Friday, August 30th, and I wanted to write a follow-up post, but somehow never got around to it.
Oh yes, I've been busy...
Read MoreZoom Time
Olivier Glod
Beautiful, fun, rewarding, the result of hard labour and love. All of these could be used to describe both the Fuji and Luxembourg's Moselle region. I recently spent some time with the former, exploring the latter :-)
Read MoreThe exhibition
Olivier Glod
I have been quite busy these last few weeks. Between showing Joe and Max Harper around Luxembourg City and Echternach and having fun with the excellent Fujifilm XF 55-200mm F3.5-4.8 R LM OIS (a blog post will follow on this in a couple of days), I also managed to host my very first exhibition :-)
Read MoreALWAYS read the fine print
Olivier Glod
Last week, Patrick, a friend of mine, paid Cine Sura (our local and cozy cinema in Echternach) a visit and noticed an advert on the ticket for a landscape photography competition.
Being the nice guy that he is, Patrick let me know about this. It went all downhill from that point on...

Olivier Glod
Not long ago, I had the privilege of shooting the christening of the lovely little Lina, daughter to a good friend of my wife. The venue for this happy event was the church in Junglinster.

Olivier Glod
A couple of days ago, Fuji released yet another firmware update for its excellent X-body cameras and lenses. As I was allowed a two hour playtime window by my wife dearest this afternoon, I quickly updated my beloved X-E1 and all of my lenses before finally heading out with the XF35.
Read MoreUn peu de tout, mais pas n’importe quoi!
Olivier Glod
The past 18 months have just been wonderful. My dormant love affair with photography has had its first spark a couple of years ago with the release of the iPhone4, but it really hit full stride when I finally decided to spring for a DSLR upgrade.
