hello @all, my name is Manfred Möldner, born in 1948. My well-maintained hobby is railway photography as well as archiving rolling stock and train images of all kinds. In intensive prototype photography, I have specialized since 1968 in Swiss narrow-gauge railways. How I pursue it requires self-discipline. I have acquired a lot of knowledge about Swiss narrow-gauge railways through membership in the Swiss Rolling Stock Association and the Steam Railway Friends of the Rhaetian Railway. Additionally, I have been subscribing to the Schweizer Eisenbahnamateur since 1973, as well as reading the Schweizer Eisenbahnrevue, Loki, and some German monthly magazines. Since March 2006, I have been running a homepage as a photo archive about Swiss narrow-gauge railways. My tools since 1968 have been a SLR camera with which I started taking slides from the beginning. In 1992, I acquired a Minolta 7000i with motor drive and original lenses. After two more Minolta 7000i and 8000i cameras, I got a Leica R7 in 1997. Two more Leicas followed. My slide yield is about 250,000 usable shots. Since 2008, I have also started digital photography with a Panasonic DMC-FZ50. In my free time, I now also capture non-railway subjects for a change ---> see also pages Flora and Fauna. Now I wish everyone much enjoyment viewing my images. If there are any questions, feel free to send them by email.
