Blurry things. Went for a pita yesterday and was lazy to make a good picture... this was the result. Sorry.

Haha. All the plastic imperfections! Nice camera tho.

Velvia 50 loaded for more cross processing in a near future.

Merry Christmas, mortals.

I know, gotta buy some new figures... this one is already showing up way too much in this blog.

84/365

This one is in the right spot.

This shot was supposed to be n# 80, and all shots since that should advance 1 position. But i screwed up and posted the wrong photo there. So i'm inverting places now. By the way, I don't care.

Fake cross process made in a minute.

82/365

Expired, cross processed film + fisheye + me ugly face + too much flash for the ocasion.

Snow melting and turning into ice, no hangover from yesterday, no money to buy the gift i wanted to buy, leaving a beer 20 minutes at the window to cool it down, not buying a big bargain for lack of patience... today was a very strange day, odd in comparison to what i expect. Except for 1 thing...

Another kulminator wednesday, this time my bike light fell and broke. Scheiße.

76/365

Enjoying my new bike to go to the center today. Sun, cold, trappist, photos, new chain and dynamo... Just forgot how money goes away fast.

75/365

Finally! Winter is here.

74/365

Oh, yeah! It's Christmas already, isn't it?

The cool thing about using my old course papers as cigarette "filters" (merely to avoid burning my fingers) is that, every now and then, i find some of those drawings/notes/etc that i make during the class (yup). This one i found a while ago, tryed scanning it but never really did anything good. Now i decided to photograph it, and edit it like hell.

Anyway... for references, this reminds me of a friend... Pé na Cova is his name, or almost it.

Another one shot with the Canon S90... photoshoped a bit to get rid of some major fingerprints in the glass. Friday's photo.

Not much to say.

Scientists found a new form of total eclipse, and it seems to happen only in Belgium. It's called "cloudy eclipse", and consists in stationary clouds over the same spot for a few days or weeks, completelly eradicating any sunlight or any clear views of sky*.

* description for Belgians that may not yet have traveled abroad, never having a chance to know the subject "sky": a typicaly blue-ish, due to many optical factors, layer of the atmosphere that is believed to cover the total territory of the planet

Uninteresting. Rainy day, got some passport pics of me ugly face, got some more rain on my way back home etc.

Bah.

Today's photo, as promised.

63/365

Yesterday's photo. Messing with Tom's (the guy on the right) new camera. The custom white balance now is not set by point-and-click like my sx100 is... it's fully manual with controls on the lens' and menu's rings. Great stuff... great stuff.

Today's photo coming later on.

A tiger, concidentially called Giu, concidentially coming from abroad, concidentially ended up living in the same places I do... guess what happened next? :)

Here is a blooper taht took place during hte photoshoot: poor bastard was so drunk he couldn't hold his head up for the 4 seconds exposure.

"That there, that's not me"

60/365

Pretty much an ordinary shot. Bad framing, bad subject, bad lightning, bad colors, but i'm still proud of how i managed not to shake (too much) for 15 seconds for the exposure. Photo taken at around 20:00... which means, at this time of the year, that it was as dark as teh night will get.

Shame tho... should've thought a bit more about the framing.

Jan taking a nap in between dish-washing sessions. Jet lag.

This year it didn't snow. It wasn't that much fun this time.

58/365

This looks like a late Halloween shot. Completes my day's atmosphere tho... woke up with a Marilyn Manson's song in me brain (Dried Up, Tied And Dead To The World), saw a giant owl staring at me from a rooftop (small/ugly pic at the end of the post), saw the wind carry clouds across the sky in "timelapse" speed, covering the moon, et cetera.

To balance things a bit i talked to a nun (yeah, there is a nun in my class... lol), watched 4 episodes of The Mentalist in a row to get a calmer/hollywood-ish evening, and played the new Super Mario Bross for Wii.

Contrasty, i have to say. And yes, i do need to vacuum the floor again... i can see the dust in the photo too.

How to make a painful photo in 4 seconds.

And then you think: "309 to go...".

My photos are way too dark lately.

54/365

Whatever... caption on Facebook (Picasa/Blogger were being weird a few minutes ago).

53/365

Cheap circuits. Cheap photograph too. Latelly everything has been cheap, but not in a good way. Except for solutions... no, those never come cheap.

52/365

Went out to enjoy the sun. Spent 5 hours under moonlight. Gotta love it.

Spent a small part of the day trying to fix the dynamo for my bike, which has passed away yesterday night, in mourn for Ireland's chance for the next World Cup. Well, didn't work. I guess when FIFA agrees to a rematch, the dynamo will just start working again. Go Eires!

On the other hand, took me 2 minutes to fix a dynamo flashlight that was being shortened by a LED. Then i wasted some 10 minutes thinking of how to convert this flashlight into the lights for my bike. Didn't succeed. Don't have the room to such a thing, although it looked extremely easy, for the right tools. Aaaaanywho, got a flashlight in one of those shops that sells all kind of cheap junk, but i forgot to buy the batteries.

In the end, i have to buy batteries tomorrow if i'm to ride my bike to Alice in Chain's concert. Crap.

Today, for the first time in a couple of years (around 4 i think), i really supported a football team. Ireland deserved the win, the french goal was bollocks.

But, as far as favourites go, France won. And although i got a free guinness and although i had a good time with an american and 2 frenchs (Marie, Remi and Geoff), i was disappointed. Now, why, i have no clue. I don't even like football. I guess i may be starting to get teh unexplainable feeling that sports fans, all around the world, have.

Imagine an unnecessarily bright light. Now imagine it in an unnecessarily fancy PS-like controlle. Now, imagine the headache one can get when that thing starts blinking if it is accidentaly activated while playing PES...

2 photographs taken with different exposure times, overlapped with "Color Burn" effect. Isn't expectacular, but i don't care. If you want something better, subscribe to work for the belgian government and work competently, deal? This way i can work and invest in some equipment or a short trip for some more interesting photos.

Somethings i still didn't test: 120 photography and cheap film from a trashcam.

Should go for it.
