Just realized, since I have all the colors in CSS custom properties it is pretty easy to create new color schemes for the blog: How about hot pink, purple or jungle? (Reset to b/w with the theme switcher controls at the bottom. 👇)

Rethinking Find-in-Page Accessibility: Making Hidden Text Work for Everyone
I regularly attend UX Graz (Meetup / LinkedIn), a meetup covering diverse UX-related topics, alternating between in-person and remote events. At one recent event, a blind speaker demonstrated how they navigate websites (on LinkedIn). It wasn't my first time seeing someone bl...
Yiğit has written a lovely post about how I inspired him to start his photo blog! 🥹 We met at WordCamp Europe in Turin last year, although very briefly at a bus stop on our way home. Check out his blog, where he’s currently doing a 365 project. Oh, and he also has a stats page!
Thinking about removing the social media integration from my photo blog. 🤔 Not sure it adds anything meaningful to be honest. Don’t get me wrong: I currently enjoy using Mastodon and the interactions there, but I enjoy direct conversations (mostly via email) with people that I follow or people that follow me (mostly via RSS) much more!

Ok, I took one digital photo at our Landschaftspark outing.
🎬 Black Swan
Enjoyed this once more. All the characters are great and so well acted. (And good job in casting both Natalie Portman and Winona Ryder, two actresses I occasionally confuse anyway.) It has just the right amount of supernatural elements. And I was reminded how much I like the music from Swan Lake.
Last saturday, I spent a lovely day photographing at Landschaftspark Duisburg with Florian. I can’t share my film photos so quickly, but he can share his - and did. Check it out:

New Rules
Since finishing the 366 project I have not been posting regularly to the photo blog. It’s kinda nice, not having that pressure, but then again, feels kinda lazy not to post anything. I love posting there! So I decided to create some new rules. Here they are:

🎬 Wild at Heart
Very violent. Very sexy. Very funny. Very suspenseful. Very sweet. Very quirky. Surprisingly metal. Very nose-y. Very entertaining.
Dern and Cage are just fantastic. And so is Dafoe. And everyone else too, to be honest.
About calling your photography “work”: I mostly agree with Cedric's post, though I think sometimes calling it work also can give it special meaning, as in “I put some special effort into this”. I think of it more in terms of “I worked hard on this”, without it becoming my work (as in profession or obligation). I wholeheartedly agree that photography should spark joy and you should do it for yourself first and foremost.
