Outside of Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, my name is Roman Eisele. At the present I’m working on my Ph.D. thesis at the University of Tübingen, Germany. I have made some contributions to the German edition of the Wikipedia, so see my user page there. You may also visit my personal website.
[edit] Personal Gallery
You can find any images I have contributet to Wikimedia Commons via the auto-generated Gallery. But as this list lacks systematic order and common-sense image captions, and also includes some stuff I have just moved from other Wiki projects, here is my personal list of my personal images.
As I have collected some nice old books, maps etc., I try to support the Wikipedia/Wikimedia project(s) in the first line with reasonable scans of images which are free to use but also of historic interest. It’s a pitty that I don’t have more time to spare … On the other hand, I add some photographs I have made here and there.

Hint: if you need some of the images listed below in higher resolution, special quality etc. for special purposes, just let me know; maybe I can help. Try the E-mail this user feature; depending on your Wikimdia Commons skin settings, it may be available in the Toolbox section at the left of this window. |
