Brexit Coin


A week ago I got a Euro coin back as change money and didn’t notice it right away, but at home I had to laugh when I realized someone attempted to stamp out the United Kingdom from the coin. So, I took my 40mm macro lens and shot a photo. The person had a funny idea but I don’t think that it was correctly executed as Ireland is stamped out as well and not just the United Kingdom. It could also be that it is coincidence, that the Euro coin was not damaged on purpose. But anyhow, it looks to … Continue reading Brexit Coin

Feed The Cat


Here is an old photo of my cat from 2014. I fed my cat and took the photo with a point-and-shoot camera.

Here is a photo of a rook bird. The photo was shot from the inside when I saw the rook bird on the garage roof. Rooks always appeared mysterious to me. We have quite a lot of them in and around our city. Some people say they’re creepy. But I find them very interesting, especially when hundreds or thousands of them fly in formation during bad weather. I don’t know why, but somehow they’re attracted to stormy weather. This is maybe also one of the reasons why people find them creepy. If it gets dark and stormy outside, and you … Continue reading Hungry Rook Bird
