Safety instructions

People work in all sorts of different environments. Most of today’s working places possess some dangers and hazards. In order to avoid these, personnel is usually provided with safety instructions. Some people choose to follow, others don’t. Here is a Top 6 photographed list of people who don’t follow safety instructions. Top picture is 6th place, next – 5th, and so on.

AVP: Alien Vs. Predator

Just came back from the cinema where we watched “AVP: Alien Vs. Predator“.

This is a very overhyped movie. Trailer was good, potential of putting both Aliens and Predators into a fight in a single film was good, niche for special effects was perfect. It is a pity that this film missed on all of these. Story and all characters were way underdeveloped. Computer graphics and special effects were minimum. Soundtrack sucked. Acting was missing. Basically there was nothing I liked about this movie. It was very very very average.

5 out of 10. Just because Olga liked it a bit.

Walking towards the city

 Walking towards the city

Olga and I went for a very short walk today. I used the opprotunity to make a few images. I tried to be as broad goaled as possible. And I think I’ve got it right this time. I have made portraits, panoramas, close-ups, and probably something else. Overall, I have selected 9 images after postprocessing. Check them out and let me know what you think via comments.

No Jumbo

We were planning to go to the huge toy story store “Jumbo” today. Olga and I need to see what they have to offer for little babies and give ourselves ideas on the price ranges. Also we are planning to buy some stuff for the Christmas/New Year celebrations (like a tree or something).

It turned out, Jumbo has switched on winter time and it is open only until 14:00 on Wednesday. I guess we’ll have to go there some other day. Tomorrow maybe, or Friday.

I will also have to find what to photograph today…

Bend It Like Beckham

Watched “Bend It Like Beckham” on DVD. It was a surprisingly good movie. I mean there are many similar films, but this one does really stand out.

Character development and attention to details is what makes this movie so good. Everyone you see on the screen seems so real, with the history, likes and dislikes and so forth. There are few interesting subjects brought up in the film: parents-children relationships and family, questions of preserving the culture in multicultural environments, sports and women. All of these are looked at from a tough, but kind perspective, which is thought provoking but not abusive of the audience.

Anyway, I think 8 out of 10 is a fair grade. Better soundtrack and a bit more original story could have made it better.
