Image 13: The blue sky of the original photograph (exif data above) was overexposed, resulting in banding, i.e. a non-smoth color gradient. Therefore, the sky, including obtrusive tree branches, was replaced with a photo of a sky taken later at a different location.

Image 15: The exterior lights of the Klimahaus were switched on too late when the sky was nearly black. Therefore, two photographs were made: a first one when the sky was still blue (exif data above) and, 10 minutes later, a second one when the lights were on. The lights were then cut out of the second photo and pasted onto the first one. Read more on how this photograph was made on page The making of a night photograph.

Image 16 was laterally reversed for reasons of composition.
