I just learned about the CSS scroll-behavior property and immediately applied it to a site. Super simple JS-independent smooth scrolling. :-)
đź“„ New camera: the Yashica FR1
Last year, I acquired a few new cameras. One of them was a Yashica FR1 (or FRI, as it’s often written as) with a selection of lenses. It was a random opportunity. And I took it. Here are some first images taken with the 24mm lens I bought with it.

March was a mixed bag. I was doing lots of trips back and forth between Ratingen and DĂĽsseldorf, preparing the move into our new apartment. Plus, I started a new/old job again, being busy working full time again.
đź“„ Dark mode
While this site is new and super-simple, I thought I add an automatic “dark mode” real quick.
Added syntax highlighting now, too. Since Jekyll generates the necessary markup out of the box, it was simply a matter of choosing an additional stylesheet, including it, and making a few more adjustments.
đź“„ Responsive images
I have now added the ability to display responsive images. And I write a little bit about how I do it using the tools I run the build this site.

Using an emoji as favicon with SVG
SVG favicons are supported by browsers. SVG can render text and emojis are text as they are part of the unicode standard.
đź“„ Hosting on GitLab Pages
A quick overview of how this site is hosted at the moment.
I was actually thinking that I might have seen enough Opeth gigs by now. But no! Last night in Cologne was the best one I’ve been to (yet)! Great setlist, great light show, and – as always – great musicianship. Very happy we went.
It’s the time of year where I generally push my films to ISO 1600. And that means I now need to slightly readjust my brain again for guessing exposure.
And in April it’s all back to ISO 400 again.

đź“„ Fuck you, Instagram!
I made a little bookmarklet to disable and hide Instagram’s login prompt and re-enable scrolling, so I can keep browsing Instagram web pages when I am logged out. I call it “Fuck you, Instagram!” or “FUI” for short.
đź“„ Recent film development fuckups
In the last two weeks, I had some bad film development results. This is a little article about what I think went wrong.
Went to see Machine Head yesterday. It was the “Burn my Eyes” 25th anniversary tour and so they played that album in its entirety, in the almost original lineup: Logan Mader on guitar, Chris Kontos on drums, and of course Robb Flynn. Would have loved to see Adam Duce, too, but I guess one can’t have everything. Anyhow: I had a great time, even joining a few circle pits.
đź“„ New website
I have a new site! It’s truly indie now. No more reliance on Tumblr. And I’m pretty happy about that! So, danielpietzsch.com is going to be my virtual home for the foreseeable future.
