Le Blurb has arrived ...

Today was the day ...

The Family Travel Book of our Trip to Portugal we have been working on for the last 6 months and sent to Blurb for printing two weeks ago did arrive today at the post (here in Sweden UPS delivers to the Swedish Post, so I could see on the UPS tracker it was printed in The Netherlands and on Swedish Ground since Friday).

So, off we went to pick up the package, and took it home for some closer inspection (*).

(*) Let me upfront excuse myself for all the possible color offset in the images as taking pictures on a white table of a book always has been a challenge for me, especially when you dont have a battery of softboxes set up (which I do not have yet). So any and all ugly colors you may spot on your screen are mine, and mine alone, and not the responsibility of Blurb.

The Season Started ...

Today it really felt the season is trying to get started.
A *huge* black trimaran was docked in Vaxholm, and when looking at her sheer power and beauty, it felt like getting the boat in the water and explore the deep blues ...

Mss. Friedland, I assume ...

I had this one stacked up still from our Portugal trip, when I bumped into these little doorbells somewhere in a non disclosed area in Coimbra where Mss. Friedland is living.
Most amusing, and when I decided today to finally sign up for Flickr (after 7 years of amusement on the one who choos'd the name and the color code when you compare it with dutch cultural awareness and the similarity with the word flikker) I noted I could actually sign up not with a Yahoo account, but with my Google Account.
Seeing Yahoo retrieving my Google account, and accepting the fact the battle on global identities is reaching a next stage made me think back of Mss. Friedland doorbells.

Crew Shooting ...

As I mentioned this morning on twitter it really felt like shooting weather today after 3 days of grey clouds and some snowfall (and not getting a real shot for the last 6 months).
So when we came back from shopping, and had a quick lunch we took the two D's out for a short walk.
We almost missed our window of opportunity cause the sun was falling fast at 3 a clock in the afternoon, but I think both me and Kalle managed to take some nice shots (as you can see it at the serious smile below when Kalle was examing his shot)

Maybe not the best, and a little bit rushed, but always good when you can get the "PICZ" vibe running in the family.
Postprocessing the sunsets, and will publish some on the archipelago blog.

Happy 1179

A wonderfull and great 1179 or was it 2011 ?!?

As I mentioned a little while back, the really latest picz I had was from the Portugal trip, and this little arrogant angel is looking out over the square of Alcobaca while sitting on top of the cathedral ...

Timeless ...

A great 2011 to all of our Friends out there ...
