I took over a hundred photos of her making soap bubbles on the balcony today. ❤️

Feeling a lot better today. 🙌 I even managed to get the car to (and from) the repair shop. Tires needed balancing. I felt a slight vibration in the steering wheel right after picking up the car (driving on the Autobahn) and Autohero handled it quickly and satisfactorily....

Came down with a head cold outta nowhere. Spent the whole day in bed. ☹️ Usually the kids bring it home and then the inevitable happens, but this time everyone else is fine. 🤷♂️ The weather was attrocious anyway, so here's a golden hour photograph of A41 from a couple of days ago.

New kicks for my daugther. Her first Chucks.

Mirror, mirror. No photography time (again) today, so another one from last weekend. Looking forward to the upcoming weekend, as there might be some dedicated photography time in the cards. 🤞 Also: beyond tellerrand is coming up in two weeks. There are still tickets left!

Dominoes.
Made it back home after a very chill weekend at my parents'.

Tried my hands on a GFX today. Not that I necessarily need speedy autofocus – I've been mostly focussing manually for the last several years, but the 100S felt kinda sluggish. Also, I thought shutter lag was a thing of the past? The images are gorgeous, though, incredible detailed! And I played around with the in-camera apsect ratios, as you can see above. 65:24 is very cool, makes me want to experiment more with a panoramic format in the future.
Fun fact: I had to update a bit of CSS so that these images are displayed properly (centered). I think I ever only posted 3:2 images… 🤔

Got nothing today, so when I just sat down to post a photo, I saw these tools on my desk. I bought this pipe wrench today, because I had to fix both of the faucets we have in our home. Come to think of it, we had lots of things break down recently. The weirdest was our oven door handle, which broke in two. 🤷♂️ Glued it back together, let's see how long it will last. 🤞

No photos today, so I'll just share this one from a couple of days ago.

Horses again. School's out and my daugher wanted go to the stables again. Unfortunately she came down with conjunctivitis over her first morning there, so the coming days are in questions. 😢

More of the same. Love the light in the morning and I pass this place everyday, so…

Spent lots of time outside today! Spring is my favorite season by far.

Pretty full week. Glad to be heading into the weekend. 🙌 Took half an hour today to wander around an area I haven't been before I picked up the girls from gymnastics class.

I think they are cleaning the facade.
So happy when I get the day's photograph early, because it is hard to find time to shoot now that Ulya has eight or ten (!) hour days. I am trying a new routine: getting up before everyone else to get some work done. This is quite the challenge, because I have forever been a night person: 2 am is usually when my creative juices flow. (At least back when I didn't have kids. 😂)
2025-04-01
If there's no time to go out to shoot you just have to make do with what is available. In today's case: The cherry tree right outside of our kitchen window (which has been featured before). I wanted to take a boring cherry blossom photograph, but a couple of bumblebees (and the afternoon light) fortunately made it more interesting.
In other news I bought a car today. A very small one. Used, of course. All online. If everything works out, we'll get it early next week. I'd rather not own a car, but Ulya's commute come May will be nearly impossible without one.

We stocked up on beans today. (That is a children's shopping cart btw, not ginormous bean cans.)

Took a couple of images today, but didn't really like any of them. So one more from yesterday's Gruga visit. The cherry trees were in full bloom, a bit of wind created a shower of blossoms. 🌸

Family trip to Gruga. Finally the deer enclosure was open for visitors. We tried many times before, but were never lucky. (I recently learned that these animals are cared for by volunteers, so the opening hours are more of a suggestion.) Anyway, we purchased a small bag of corn which the kids used to feed the deer.
