A blog where Florian tries to post one photo per day.
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.
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.
I just love this image from yesterday's trip to the supermarket.
Went to a farm today. Had some cake and hot chocolate and warmed ourselves next to the wood-burning stove.
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.
Making beeswax candles.
Christmas party at my daughter's school today.
Short afternoon walk with the girls, watching the construction going on in the neighorhood.
No rain today (🙌), 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.
Walked through Rüttenscheid 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. 🙄
I would be remiss if I didn't link to Daniel's latest photo journal post. He had a busy August 2023! 😬
Keeping watch during naptime.
Crazy sunrise colors this morning. We had to stop the bike and take it all in.
Playing with Legos.
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. 🤷♂️
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! 🤞
Fiery sunrise. This must be some kind of record for the earliest post. Love when I am done that early – especially with a picture that I am very happy with – rather than to scramble to post something at 11 pm. 🙂
I do not often mention work here, but since this is photography related: We currently have a sale over at picu, which – in my biased opinion – is the best photo proofing tool out there (if you are running WordPress). Check it out!
Wrapping the present she got for her sister's birthday, which is coming up in a couple of weeks.
Early morning Gruga visit. Kind of amazing walking through the park, without anyone else being present. Quite the peaceful experience.
Still enjoying Claude assisting with the alt text generation.
Garffiti-covered Doorbell.
Haven't mentioned it on this blog for a while: On Friday (in two days), I will order a new batch of project 366 zines. Part II and III are now done and ready for printing! If you are interested in owning a copy, subscribe to my newsletter. I'll send out the info on how to order tomorrow. (Big thanks to those who already put their orders in! 🙏)
I am done with the dark and gloomy weather.
Not sure what was going on there. They extended the ladder, the guy looked into some windows, then folded everything back up. 🤷♂️ (The only photo I took today.)
Baking cookies at the neighbors'.
On my way home from Frankfurt. Lots of walking and talking with Claudio. Looking forward to going back to work on Monday! In find these in-person meet-ups essential and we definitely need to do this more often. And, maybe next time, we will finally not forget to make new team photos. 🙈
Did some exploring this morning and visited the observation deck of the Main Tower.
In Frankfurt with Claudio for our end-of-year Haptiq meet-up.
It is no secret that I am very apprehensive when it comes to LLMs. However, earlier today Claudio showed me some very cool stuff, he has built with the help of – his almost namesake – Claude. So I caved in and created an account to try it myself. 🫣 I mean, it surely can help with simple tasks, no? So: The alt text for the image above was created entirely by Claude and I think, it did an amazing job.
Making noodles with anneanne.
Abysmal weather conditions today. Only went out side to get my kids to/from school/kindergarten. Took five (not so great) images, including the one above.
