After organizing my photos, I finally got to edit and work out some of my photos 📷from Bar Harbor in September. More work to do, but progress…!

Also, sorting my photos, I’m considering a couple of features I’d like in a future camera 📷:

GPS tagging (so I can find photos by looking at a map in Lightroom)
WiFi syncing to Synology / DNS
Mirrorless Sony (so it fits my current lenses)
Longer video clip duration
Higher sensitivity (low light)

Since COVID, I’ve started to exercise in my room. I’ve been exercising way more often this way than I ever did at the gym.

What, no coffee? I actually have a couple of favorites. Pictured here, is pomegranate juice, slightly carbonated. Perfect with a spicy grilled chicken sandwich.

In a jar, red liquid. It is pomegranate juice with a few bubbles from carbonation in it.

That’s just me in the corner… typical morning routine.

A picture of a small manhattan apartment. Standing at the left, a bald guy with a cup in his hand looking outside. The apartment is full of objects, spices, a sofa, a table, a microwave, and two windows looking outside at the gloomy grey day.

Almost skipped this one… One of the side streets in Florance, Italy.

A paved road with a row of scooters next to each other blocking about half of the street. Yellow-painted walls are closing in on the street, making it more of an alleyway.

Who hasn’t had this sort of disruption at work?? (If you work on a Mac or Linux, sit down…). After all these years, this “feature” still makes me want to throw laptops out the window.

I’m having fun with the different photo modes on the iPhone. I didn’t explore them in depth before, but there are some interesting options.

Three kitchen towels, and a pillow on a chair with a vintage finish. The primary color is red-brown with some streaks of blue and patterns in the fabric.

🎶 These hot sauces are not kidding around. I only dare to use one drop on a bun. Any more than that, and I have a hole in my tongue. 🎶

Three bottles of hot sauce of different kinds. From left to right: Burn, Fiya Fiya, and aka miso

2024-09-19: I still have ‘em. Still only use one drop at a time. They’ve been in my fridge for about three years now.

When we visited Copenhagen, we saw these statues underwater in the canal. They were intended to be presented this way, with the algae and fish swimming between them.

five human figures made of stone, underwater. They are green and blue, with algae growing around them an on them.

Here’s a goofy one from pre-COVID days. I call it “that moment when you finally got yourself out to the gym and realize you left your keys behind 🔑 "
