Weekly Photo Challenge: Threshold

Dennis

The motto of this weeks Photo Challenge is Threshold. They say that Threshold means that we can share a photo that captures the threshold. They mean that point just before any action happens. I though the photo above would fit pretty much. It´s before Shyna gets her favorite cat snacks. It´s before I started to feed my cat. I took the photo when we shot all the other photos of an earlier set. The hasty furball image, the red-eyed cat photo, the photo for the cat tricks article, the funny meerkat cat trick article and the above my cat scene. … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Threshold

Ladybug Taking Off From A Blue Jeans

Dennis

The image above is really awesome considering that my mother shot the image with her Samsung Galaxy S3 and that you simply can´t plan photos like this one. My mother and me took a lot of photos of this beautiful ladybug. I showed one of the photos earlier. My mother with her S3 and I with my Sony Xperia P. But my mother took some more photos when I was done and at some moment the ladybug was taking off from the blue jeans and I said to my mother “With luck, you have the scene saved!” and we browsed … Continue reading Ladybug Taking Off From A Blue Jeans

A Ladybug On A Blue Jeans

Dennis

As promised here, I have some nice new ladybug photos and I want to show you one of them now. You see how the nature starts to flourish and at the same time you can find the first insects, that is what I like about springtime. Some things on our earth are so beautiful that you don´t need a professional camera or image editing, to show the prettiness. I think ladybugs are a great example here. They are simply beautiful on their own and it is always cool if you have them on a photo. I didn´t do anything other … Continue reading A Ladybug On A Blue Jeans

Daily Prompt: Land of Confusion

Dennis

The Daily Prompt asks: “Which subject in school did you find impossible to master? Did math give you hives? Did English make you scream? Do tell!”. This is an interesting question. Even as a German, I´d say that German was at times complicated but not that I had problems to write or speak in German but I always had the feeling that you would need a master degree in Latin first to understand the latin terms which describes German grammar rules. They did attack us with so much Latin terms that I sometimes started to wonder if they want to … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Land of Confusion

My Mother Got A GoPro Hero 3+ Camera For Free

Dennis

It´s not often that someone in my family has luck. But I talk about contests and the reason is that we usually don´t participate in contests or lotteries. But there is this very serious company that we know and they sometimes run contests and the conditions of participation are not that horrible like in most of the contests. What I mean is, that it is no scam and everything is really fair. My mother did participate and a month later she has won a GoPro Hero 3+ action camera. She got the video camera and we saw that this one … Continue reading My Mother Got A GoPro Hero 3+ Camera For Free

If You Have Polish Neighbors, You Will Get Tasty Snacks…

Dennis

My mother has Polish neighbors and they are very friendly. My mother even laughed and said they are in fact too friendly. What she means is that they often bring things to my mother like delicious snacks and food. For example if it´s weekend and if her neighbors have visitors, they also will bring some of the delicious things down to my mother and that happens often. But my mother gives them things too, for example if my mother’s husband did cook again some delicious German food. I noticed it is a “give and receive” there and I wish I … Continue reading If You Have Polish Neighbors, You Will Get Tasty Snacks…
