I think that having people portraits appearing in the “Picture of the day” is a good thing sometimes. Today I’ve got a really quick shot that I managed not to screw up seriously. It captured the mood nicely.

A couple of days ago I went to the automatic car wash. Waiting inside, I noticed the aquarium with a bunch of turtles. I had time, great subjects, and the camera with me. The only thing missing was the light. I made about 10 shots and only this one came out more or less OK.

Today I was playing with camera stabilization. Not only it was placed on the part of the building, but the shutter was released with the timer to avoid the shake from hands. The resulting picture looks pretty good, so I guess it worked.
Due to a couple of really harsh lights that were spoiling the shot, I had to edit the image in Gimp. That 3-block building slightly to the left of the center is actually a 1 block one.

Things look very interesting today morning. It was raining heavily over night, so everything is wet and freshly washed. The sky is cloudy, but clouds are not too thick to stop the daylight. Everything that hasn’t been painted recently looks very dissaturated. Everything else looks oversaturated. I have tried to show this contrast on few images, but I don’t think I have succeded.

Olga and I started to prepare the room for the baby. As you might know, we don’t have a spare room just for that, so we have to get rid of our computer room. Today some of the first irreversable changes went in, but before that, I thought that it would be cool to keep a few pictures of the original setup. It will be fun to look at this in 5-10 years.
My table is gone now…
