2018-52

Week 52 – The last blog post of the year, and also the last one before taking a break from blogging.

My last picture is one I took this week with my favorite camera Fujifilm X-T2 and vintage lens Pentacon 50 mm f1.8

I’ll continue to post pictures on Instagram (link on top) – Hope to see you there! 🙂

And last but not least: Happy New Year!


2018-9

It’s cold here in Amsterdam! People (and some birds, see below) are ice skating on the canals (link) 🙂

Ice skating for the first time

So far we haven’t had a real winter here in Amsterdam this year either, but last night it snowed for the first time! Unfortunately it’s melted away already.. These pictures were taken this morning

Where’s our Winter? We got no snow, no ice, no frost, only uninspiring grey and rain.. Here’s a picture I took one year ago, when we had a proper Winter

highlands

Yesterday I came across a fold of Highland cattle in the forest. Aren’t they cute? They let me come close (I didn’t have any zoom lens with me) and posed very friendly.

Two pictures of frost on a window- I couldn’t decide which image I liked more so I’m posting both and also adding my first poll (see below).

The first one is a closeup with automatic focus:
