									Home
		Short text version in English
		Welcome to Cologne!
		This is a "local" web site with many pictures of the large zoological garden in Cologne
		(Zoo Köln) and the small game preserves (Tierparks, Wildparks) around the city of
		Cologne. The zoo is one of the nicest in Germany.
		Cologne is located in the Rhineland of Western Germany. There are one million
		citizens living in Cologne. It is the fourth biggest town in Germany. Cologne is
		known for the great gothic cathedral (Kölner Dom), the Eau de Cologne (Kölnisch
		Wasser) and the two month lasting carnival (Karneval).

		Short version of the german texts
		The german text gives background information about the zoo and game
		preserves. And about my person: I am an electrical engineer and photography is
		my hobby for more then 20 years.
		The page "fototipps" is about my equipment and my experience with it. The
		pictures have been taken with two older Nikon cameras (F3, FE2) and one small
		digital camera Olympus C-4000 (4 megapixel). The films have been scanned by
		Epson Perfection 3200 Photo, a flatbed-scanner. This web site is produced with
		Microsoft Excel. The galleries are generated by Photoshop Elements 2.0 - it came
		with the flatbed-scanner. This software combination is easy to use and it works.
		In summer 2005 I bought a second digital camera: Olympus C-8080 (8 megapixel).
		And now for something completely different:
		Look at my landscapes and sea views of Ireland and Scottland.
