Valorando lo que tienes

Esta foto que hice hace unas semanas mientras iba con prisas a un sitio me hace valorar lo que tenemos. He mirado las fotos de hace 25 años, diez días intensos a principios de diciembre de 1998 en los que volví de Cranfield, asistí a la  ceremonia de graduación y me fui a Armilla a empezar la mili. Hoy en día seguramente tendría muchas fotos y vídeos de recuerdo.

Puertas

 

I added a feature to my collage script to add a grey frame to each photo. One thing about programming is exactly this, if you want something, it´s in your hands to do it (at least for simple features).

Street Art: El Bocho

 

I went for a walk today in Charlottenburg and took my camera hoping to take the one or the other photo and I had a blast in the ninety minutes I was aroung. The icing on the cake was a really nice series of street art which I found just by chance. Turns out they are all painted by El Bocho

Entrance doors

 

Berlin is full of beautiful entrance doors

Breitenbachplatz (v)

This is a draft which was never posted. I cannot even remember why not. I guess at the time I did not like the oversaturated colours, or maybe I had already posted too many photos of Breitenbachpatz.

Better late than never.

Rotspanier

Aprovechando esta semana de vacaciones en casa, hemos visitado Rotspanier, un exposición itinerante sobre los refugiados españoles que acabaron en campos de concentración, que se puede visitar de forma gratuita en Berlín hasta finales de octubre. Fuimos entre semana y por la mañana y tuvimos la suerte de tener la exposición entera para nosotros solos, un lujo en estos tiempos que corren. Altamente recomendable.

Bajo la especie de una biblioteca.

I have always imagined Paradise as a kind of library.

Photowalk - September

After a long day of rain, the weather gave us a break exactly when we needed it for the photowalk. The bounty is several nice photos, great conversation ans lots of fun. We will keep doing this now in a regular basis, great excuse to get out and enjoy Berlin.

Ten years ago I took a photo from pretty much the same place. That one was ten years. Time flies.

Photowalk - July

Last Saturday I went out again with some colleagues on a photowalk. Really good fun, great company and great photos. Each of us has uploaded five photos to a shared album and we have 15 points to give away as we see fit, so the fun continues for a few days. Good example of how gamification of activities can have a benefitial effect.

From all the photos I took, this is the one I like best.

Serenity with a twist

It´s been a while since I last went for a photowalk. Yesterday a couple of colleagues and I spent two hours walking from Treptower Park to the East Side Gallery. When we were about to go home I saw this guy reading and asked him if I could take a photo, which he agreed to.

After I took the photo he asked me if I was going to post it somewhere so I came closer to give the address of this blog, and then I noticed that he had his mobile on top of the open book!
