Sleepy Cat

Dennis

I don’t have much time anymore because I meet a friend in voice chat the next minutes, but I wanted to push the photo above out to my blog. I tried to get a close-up photo of my cat with the 40mm macro lens I am using. The paw turned out to be a bit too distracting in the photo, and I hoped the paw would be less blatant. When I saw Shyna sleepy and surrounding her eye with her paw, I thought this would be a nice photo. I like how it is framed, but I really hoped there … Continue reading Sleepy Cat

Cat Wallpaper

Dennis

Today I shot some new photos of my cat and I experimented a little bit with my 40mm macro lens. I had the idea to take a photo of Shyna’s nose and mouth. Not sure what exactly I tried to achieve, but sometimes you find out later. When I transferred the image to my PC, I realized the image could work very well as a wallpaper in Windows. Because on the left side, there is enough clean space for all my icons. I think I might try the image as a wallpaper. What do you think? And how is this … Continue reading Cat Wallpaper

Under The Bridge

Dennis

Here is a photo that I shot two weeks ago during a walk around the city along the Trave river. There are some really beautiful parks and paths but also some shady looking places like in the image above. In some areas it’s dark under the bridges and there are many smearings on the fundaments. I thought I convert the image to black and white, because it made the atmosphere in the image look even darker than it was before. I now already have a couple of bridge photos on my blog, that’s funny because I don’t hunt to get … Continue reading Under The Bridge

Tomatoes and Onions

Dennis

Like the other day, I managed it again to do 4 km today. Yesterday I didn’t manage it but it was quite humid and I gave up after 3 km. But today it was warm but very windy and this is how summers have been here a long time ago. It’s the fresh breeze that makes it acceptable. So, I put my running clothes on and went outside and I enjoyed the exercise with the wind. When I was done and after the shower, I visited my mother. She cut some tomatoes and onions and we ate them with pepper … Continue reading Tomatoes and Onions

Running Progress

Dennis

I took the snapshot when I was done with my jogging tour. I have a nice belt where I can carry a 0.5 liter bottle of water with me. It’s always my reward when I walk back home, or when I need a sip during the run. Today I ran 4 km without a single break and I think this is pretty good considering that I ran three days in a row. Today my lungs and my heart felt like I could have continued to run forever but my muscles didn’t want it anymore at 4 km and I listen … Continue reading Running Progress
