day 248: abstract composition This picture probably shows two things: First of all, if you’re uninspired, put the camera away and do something else. You haven’t seen the original picture before editing the crap out of it, so ...
day 247: urban alienation First of all, and entirely unrelated to the picture: Today I have finally finished the first draft of my novel! Interesting enough I had the ending written ages ago and now I finally filled ...
day 246: good day everyone This cute little guy is saying “good day everyone”, how very nice of him. Oh, these trustworthy red eyes …! I see him when I go to the shop two blocks from here. I ...
day 245: gadget alarm I probably took this picture because of the slight rendering error. It shows that I’m a very gadget friendly person, although this actually isn’t my own kindle. I got mine a few days after ...
day 244: abstract round It’s late at night. I need a picture quick. That’s probably what went through my head when I took this picture. Well, some days you have inspiration, some days you don’t and as abstracts ...
day 243: opening up I’m sure I’ve taken a picture of this door before, but from a different angle. It’s the only old door left in the flat and there is something quite funny about it: Even if ...
day 242: rays of light I’m always fascinated by weird shadows and reflections, so I immediately had to grab the camera when I saw this strange sight. Share this:ShareClick to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share ...
day 241: nature’s shadow Maybe you’ve noticed that I’ve been posting a lot lately. Well, that’s because I’m actually still more than a month behind on posting pictures. It doesn’t make much sense to take a picture a ...
day 240: obviously bored Ever spent hours playing solitaire on your computer? Well, I’ve not only played it on my computer, but also on my iPod. If the most interesting thing during a day is this, then you ...

day 237: focus It really makes a difference on what detail of the whole picture we focus. True for photography and for life. Sometimes it’s really interesting to change your focus and go with an unintuitive approach ...
day 236: staring at the wall Whenever I make the mistake of looking at information about Leica cameras, I cry a little, since you can easily end up having to make a choice between a Leica camera and a car. ...
day 235: drip drip So, you think you got a fast lens to capture movement like this? Well, you’re wrong, since the minimum focussing distance makes it incredibly hard to get a decent composition going. Oh well, at ...
day 234: day of the triffids When I noticed that the flower seemed to be eating the little figurine, or whatever you could call it, I immediately had to think of Day of the Triffids. It’s one of my favourite ...
day 233: shapes I really like the bokeh on this one, because it seems to have different stages. However, I just couldn’t think of a good name for this one. If you come up with something, please let ...
day 232: abstract stripes This is a picture that would have been impossible without my 50mm 1.4/f lens and I really pushed the shutter speed as well. It was basically taken in complete darkness with just the light ...
