hello summer...

hope everyone is enjoying summer. though its time to bring this time of the year to my blog too with some summery pictures :)




these were taken with the 35mm. the next one with the kit lens, cause my 50mm is off to get repaired. I've decided to look at it from the bright site and use this as an opportunity to use my other lenses more often.


I forgot what a good lens the 14-42mm is...may have to get that one out more often ;)

and I'm also in the proces of putting together a portfolio, which will probably consist of my own favorites for the most part. if you have any favorites yourself, I would love to know :)

looking at things from different angles

see, I'm really making an effort to blog more often hehe
with uni starting, I haven't had all that much time to take pictures, but I was looking through the pictures on my camera, and came across some I took right after I got the 50mm lens.

trying out some different angles is always fun and I wanted to know if the 50mm would also be good for macro pictures





with flowers I'm never sure, weither I like them better in color or b/w



I think it all depens on the flower itself. as much as I love b/w pictures, I think in this case I'm gonna go with color

this coming sunday its the end of summertime, which means we have to change all the clocks for one hour. good thing is we're gonna gain one hour, stupid thing is that its gonna get dark sonner than already. not a big fan of that for many reasons, one of them being thats its gonna suck for taking pictures in the afternoon.



but getting out all the candles, is definitely one good thing ;)

edit: hmm, looking at the pitures in firefox they look a little over-edited...they looked fine in PS :/

more flowers

wow, it's been quite some time since my last post. haven't really taken all that much pictures lately other then at family celebrations, but I'm very determined to change that once my exams are over.
don't worry you don't have to wait that long for new pictures ;)
I went into our garden and took some pictures to get my mind off some stuff.
well, here are the results

thought it might be fun to try out some different focus points

used these two for my new header

spring has sprung

one of the great things of spring is definitely all the pretty flowers.
I finally had some time to get some flower pictures during the easter holidays

and I also got a new header featuring one of those pictures :)

nature pictures

so, as promised, here are some nature picture I took a while ago. most of them were taken during spring, I think

this one was taken yesterday and it's not really a nature picture like the other, but I just love that shot :)
