Nuremberg Subway Instawalk (1)

A few weeks ago I did join another Instawalk organized by the admins of the Nuremberg Instagram community. This time a group of local Instagramers with their cameras and tripods toured through the Nuremberg subway system. We were properly authorized with photo permits (thanks VGN for making it possible), because normally underground photography is strictly prohibited.

0.4sec – f/11 – ISO200 – 100mm

I took the photograph with my new favorite cam/lens combo, the Olympus OM-D E-M1X and the mZuiko 12-100mm F/4 Pro Zoom. Shooting in the low light underground was a perfect testing ground for the great image stabilization of the M1X combined with the lens-internal stabilized 12-100 F/4. The other camera I brought was the Olympus PEN-F with the WALIMEX Pro 7,5mm 1:3.5 Fish-Eye. We spent nearly 3hours in the subway system, divided into three groups, each exiting and shooting at different stations so we did not get into each others ways. It was perfectly organized by the Igers Nürnberg admins. See below a few images from the walk.

I hope you enjoyed these diverse insights into Nuremberg’s underground. Look for another post with a second set of images.

As with all Instawalks before, I really enjoyed the excursion with a group of likeminded photographers. We all had fun with the tour and the inspirations we took from one another, because each participant had different artistic takes on what and how to photograph. Thanks to the admins for organizing the walk and for VGN to make it possible.
