Photography-wise I’ve been fairly unmotivated recently: no posting, no development, no scanning and only taking few photos. But today was finally a good day again: I spent the whole day outside in the sun with the family and friends while shooting two rolls of Foma 100 with my Lomo LC-A.

With the warm, sunny weather that we have had recently, I have twice visited a coffee shop in the evenings. A decaf flat white is my order — my standard after 3pm.
