A Stray Cat In The Garden

Dennis

Today I attempted to take a photo of a black cat that sat there on a small path in the gardens. But this cat didn’t give me much time to take photos and disappeared in the hedge. There was a woman in one of the gardens and saw my attempt. I wondered if it would be her cat and I said: “I tried to get a photo, this cat is pretty shy”. She replied that this is true and that it’s not her cat. She mentioned that this is a stray cat but it comes for a visit once in … Continue reading A Stray Cat In The Garden

Keep Your Distance Human

Dennis

Today I challenged myself again to take new cat photos. The garden areas are great for that. I already tried the same yesterday and I got a really nice close-up photo of a beautiful ginger cat.

In the post about the smartphone I mentioned that I might share a photo of the case too. So, here it is… Continue reading Black Rock Smartphone Book Cover

After 2511 Days It Was Time To Get A New Phone

Dennis

I am not exactly the type of customer that can be reached easily by mobile phone manufacturers. I don’t have very high standards when it’s about phones. What I need is a device which allows me to receive and do phone calls. Apart from that, it’s fun if the phone can show me notifications, run a few apps or if I can take a few snapshots with it. You guessed it, any smartphone will do. And my last phone did it for a very long time. I also check the look of the phone, but once I got one, I … Continue reading After 2511 Days It Was Time To Get A New Phone
