Coping with public and private transport since 2001
Right now, I’m typing this from my mobile phone, while sitting comfortably on a lounge seat sipping my double espresso while in Greece. Well, life isn’t too bad like this. Today has been a day filled with sand, salt water and protecting ourselves from the inevitable sun. 30spf is barely enough. With about 35¤ Celsius in the shade it’s what

These days that role has been taken by paper at first and then the digital media. Youngsters are now counting space in gigabytes instead of pages of books… Am I getting old? To restore the old: we bought the following:

I had to wait for another full day before I could get my hand on the below depicted gems!
Continue readingI don’t know yet for how long it has been, but I’m pretty pleased by the fact that we’ve been noticed! Remember me posting some stuff on XBRL? It has been noticed by the XBRL-organization of Spain (XBRL España), and our document was directly linked from there! *evidence* (and scroll down) I don’t know how to respond to this to

It’s not just any lens, it’s the Tokina 12-24mm f/4.0 AF AT-X PRO DX II with Nikon F-mount. It’s a true monster compared to my tiny Nikkor
