About Me
This web site is
my outlet to showcase my photos of the little German town called Myhl and other
events that I film. Myhl is close to
the Dutch and Belgium boarder. Myhl is a
very small village in Germany with a population of around 4,000. Despite it’s small size, this town is very
much alive and rich with local customs and great fun-loving people. These photos are my contribution to this
town as seen through the eyes of this American. I’ve lived in Germany since 1994. I’m constantly reminded by my friends that I still need to
improve my German. I’m proud to call
Myhl my home. Ich bin ein Myhler!
I hope you enjoy
viewing these photos as much as I’ve enjoyed taking them. Come back often as there is always something
going on in this town.
I am very proud
of my work and I constantly receive very positive feedback from people that
have been on the other side of my lens.
Last
year, 2005, I really consider myself lucky to be contracted as “The
Photographer” at 17 different local Riding Tournaments (Reitturniers). This, above most of my photography
assignments, I have greatly enjoyed. I
really enjoy having both of my feet in the mud, photographing super nice people
reaching for, and at times achieving their goals with the horse.
More than that,
I really love watching and enjoying the triumph of “Wills” between a man or a
woman and his or her horse to achieve the common objective of finishing faster,
or in better style from a field of some of the finest athletes in the local
area.
To those “Athletes”,
my hat is off to you. I am just glad I
can place these few moments on film for you, and your family to enjoy for
generations.
Thanks, and I really
hope you enjoy my efforts,
Dennis
