Still not feeling great. Made it out of the house for a little bit, though. Took a picture of my family inspecting some random stuff people put out on the street. My wife usually finds something β€žusefulβ€œ – much to my dismay. πŸ˜‚ As if we didn't have enough β€žstuffβ€œ already. But I digress. Tomorrow will be the final post of the 366 project. The year long journey will find its end. I have no clue what I will photograph. There is no preconceived concept to any of this, so I guess it will be random, just like all the other days before. πŸ™‚

Monochrome image of a flat tire on a caravan

Deflated. Made it out of the house for a short walk – and right back to bed.


Thought I had some time to reflect, but I spent yesterday (and most of today) in bed, and really didn't feel like sitting down in front of a computer to write down my thoughts. Maybe tomorrow. I have two post left. 😱

View out the kitchen window. I did not go outside today, because I am sick. It's actually a wonder this didn't happen sooner, as both kids have been running around with the sniffles for weeks… oh well. Hope it is over quickly. 🀞

Black and white architectural photo showing a building's upper story with dormer windows and a prominent octagonal turret, set against dramatic cirrus clouds in the sky.

Out and about with the family, enjoying the nice weather. Can't believe the year is almost over. Started to write my project 366 wrap-up post, but I am not really sure what to say. Only four (!) posts left after this one.

Monochrome image of my children in a train wearing headphones watching a show on an iPad and playing with a handheld console

On our way home. I should have known that my daughter would get the most playtime out of my new Miyoo Mini Plus. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

A black and white photo of a dinner table centered on a sliced Linzer torte. The formal place settings include rimmed plates and cutlery, with a lit candle and holiday decorations visible in the background. The scene is set on a striped tablecloth, creating an elegant, festive atmosphere.

Off to enjoy my mum's culinary delights for a couple of days.

We went out – despite the atrocious weather – to photograph a bridge. Always fun hanging out with Daniel!

Shiny jackets from little visitors.


Next time the kid has a birthday we are not talking about it on the days leading up to it: I took the first picture at 5:31 AM today. 😡 Still had a great day. 😊 Can't believe she is five already.

Monochrome image of my daugther, sitting on the window sill, looking out the window into the backyard, where a worker is cutting a a tree into pieces with a chainsaw

A tree was cut down in your backyard today. Suvi was really sad about it. The landscape gardener explained to us that the tree was infected by a fungus and would most likely have come down on its own during the next storm – and possibly in the direction of the house.


Even though these pictures have a sad vibe to them – and I just took them today, I already know they will be among my favorites from this year.

This monochrome image shows a graffiti-style artwork on a wall; it features abstract shapes, geometric patterns, and a stylized cartoon-like character which is looking through a camera

The graffiti practice wall was shooting back today. Only two weeks left! 😱


Felt good to send out more project 366 zines today! This reminds me that I should advertise the newsletter a bit more: So if you are interesed in owning one or all of the zines, subscribe and I'll let you know once they become available.

John McClane lighting his zippo in an air duct

Watched Die Hard with the boys tonight. (As previously announced.) Tim had never seen it before 🀯, which was fun! He gave it 4 out of 5 stars. (A solid 5 for me!) Couldn't decide between the two most iconic scenes, so I photographed both.

Monochrome image of my daughter laying in the flatbed part of a shopping cart, peaking through the groceries in the baseket from below

I just love this image from yesterday's trip to the supermarket.

Monochrome image of my daughters sitting on chairs next to a wood-burning stove

Went to a farm today. Had some cake and hot chocolate and warmed ourselves next to the wood-burning stove.

The image shows a tangled network of bare tree branches against a gray, overcast sky. The branches create an intricate, abstract black-and-white pattern with varying thicknesses and angles. There appears to be no foliage, suggesting this is likely an image taken during the colder months when trees are dormant.

I am tired. I think the dark time of year is getting to me. Went for an early morning Gruga walk after dropping off the kids. There is always that funny feeling: I have my camera with me – of course – and I know that I will get something before leaving the park, but I never know what it will be. It's a bit like a treasure hunt, without the suspense. I just walk – and look around. And then, there it is. Today it was this wire frame construction covered in a tangle of bare branches with tendrils sticking out in all directions.

Monochrome image of a large tv set showing a freeze frame of Michael J. Fox's character Marty McFly in the movie Back to the Future III

We did it! After part one and two we actually managed to watch Back to the Future Part III today. Next up: Die Hard. (The plan is to get that one under our belt before Christmas!)

Monochrome image of my daughters watching the construction going on behind some street barriers.

Short afternoon walk with the girls, watching the construction going on in the neighorhood.

Black and white image of Gruga Park in Essen, featuring an observation tower surrounded by bare trees and a grassy open space. The sky is mostly overcast, with some breaks in the clouds, and a crescent moon is visible in the upper right corner.

No rain today (πŸ™Œ), so to Gruga the girls and I went.


I had a really hard time posting the last couple of days. Only 23 posts left to complete the year. I want to finish strong, which means I need to schedule some dedicated photography time.

The image shows a large parking lot filled with cars, with a tall industrial smokestack or chimney visible in the background. The scene is captured in black and white, creating a moody, urban atmosphere.

Walked through RΓΌttenscheid this morning. Lots of cars, because of the car fair going on right now. Glad it's over tomorrow, because the ratio of stupid drivers I came across during my commute is definitely higher than usual. πŸ™„


I would be remiss if I didn't link to Daniel's latest photo journal post. He had a busy August 2023! 😬

This image depicts an urban sunrise scene with a vibrant sky. The sky is ablaze with warm hues of orange, red, and pink, creating a dramatic backdrop. There are buildings, streetlights, and a pedestrian crossing the street.

Crazy sunrise colors this morning. We had to stop the bike and take it all in.

Got nothing today. So, because I am already in the process of laying out the final project 366 zine, I chose to use another photograph from yesterday, because it fits perfectly on a spread with yesterday's images. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

The image shows a heavily graffitied wall, with various colors, shapes, and text scrawled across the surface. There are stairs leading up to the wall, and the overall scene looks like it is in an urban, outdoor setting.

A bit of a full day with no dedicated picture-taking-time. So more graffiti practice wall it is. Looking forward to Sunday, for some photo walking with Daniel! 🀞
