If you drive from Greetsiel to Emden with your bike, along the dike, you reach a small lighthouse, which stands directly on the dike, after a few kilometers. Some years ago they made a film there with the German comedian "OTTO Waalkes". Since that time, the lighthouse has the nickname "OTTO-Turm". One of Ottos symbols are elephants. In Germany we call them "OTTIfanten".
At this wonderful summerday, unfortunately there was not enough wind to take some KAP-shoots. The coloured lighthouse looks very good in this blue sky.

This day, the sky wasn´t blue, but the wind was ideal for
KAPing. The pictures were taken from an alitude of 5, 40 and 15 m.
On this KAP-session was something wrong with my rig. I coudn´t
turn it round 360 degrees. I thought it was the wind, but it wasn´t.
Later I noticed that there was a technical problem with the servo.
The big gearwheel of the beltdrive was loose.
Links to other KAPers and more you can find in my Surfers Guide.
I like to be available for questions, suggestions or experience exchange.
I would be very pleased about an entry in my visitor's book.
