While in Kraków we took a random tram out of the city centre, and ended up with tram 4. When getting off I took some photos of the trains at the end/first station, when the driver suddenly came out and walked towards us.
He had a rather sour looking face, so my first thought was that he didn't like that we took photos of the trains. He talked to us in Polish, but when he understood that we was foreigners he asked to follow him to the other side of the lines.
There he told us what we ought to photograph; the Tatra Mountains and Zakopane. The mountains could be spotted somewhere behind the foggy horizon, and not really worthy a photo for me, but he was very impressed himself, and took up his mobile for a few photos.

What’s better than a classic car? Enjoying it daily. This BMW 316 Series is a perfect choice for that purpose. Just don’t forget to keep an extra jug of motor oil in your trunk—and you’re good to go!
I’ve attempted to build this model a few times before, but only now have I managed to make it truly appealing to me. The addition of LEGO’s Slope 2 x 2 x 2/3 Curved Wedge was definitely a game-changer here.
I really hope you like my new MOC!

My first attempt at setting up for a shoot. There are more in my album if you wish to have a look...JK
This diesel train driver was waiting while a problem further up the line was cleared.
He leaned out the window to take a look up the tracks and I grabbed this shot.
While at the salt desert to the border of Pakistan, we wanted to take a stroll to get some pictures and get a feeling of walking on the semi-dry salt lake. Our camel driver/guide took his camels for a stroll as well, giving me an excellent opportunity to capture them from a distance with a clean background. The salt lake was dry on the surface, but still held a few centimeters of water once the dried salt cover broke. Since I was walking in sandals, I cut myself over and over again, instantly filling the small cuts with salt. Needless to say, it was rather painful. That being said, though, I would easily do it again, albeit with a different pair of footwear.

So I survived a crazy weekend (actually more like 36 hours) on the streets of Mumbai shooting pretty much all the time and taking small breaks for a bit of sleep or a bit of coffee! Like I mentioned in a previous post, I went to Mumbai over the weekend together with two friends who are very keen street photographers and who have recently joined the “blogosphere” with a cool photography antiblog. While street photography is not really my biggest love, I had a great time and managed to get away with a few nice shots which are a bit different than my usual stuff.
We had no specific plans about the locations where we would shoot with the exception of the loose phrase “hey, let’s go somewhere where there’s lots of people”. Well, Mumbai has 20 million people so we were definitely covered there! Things were made infinitely easier by Arsh who’s been a reader of my blog for over two years and who graciously offered to show us around and take us to some places we would have never found on our own. Thanks Arsh!
Now on to today’s image… We landed in Mumbai very early morning on Friday (4am to be precise) and we figured that our best chance for some cool scenes at that hour would be a train station. We got a taxi to Victoria Terminus, a busy train station with beautiful Victorian Gothic revival architecture and plenty of people milling about. Outside the train station many taxi drivers were waiting for clients and I spotted this old guy thinking I’ll try something different. I’ve asked one of my friends to hold a bare flash pointed at him, while I was shooting through the window. I’m really happy with this shot as I think it’s got almost a cinematic feel to it, but as always I would love to hear what you think.

The Ferrari F12berlinetta (also unofficially referred to as the F12 Berlinetta or the F12) is a front mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive grand tourer produced by Italian sports car manufacturer Ferrari. The F12berlinetta, debuted at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, replaces the 599 series grand tourers.
Specifications
Engine
The F12berlinetta uses a 6,262 cc (382 cu in), naturally aspirated 65° V12 engine of the Ferrari F140 engine family. Engine displacement is shared with the FF, but the F140 FC version installed on the F12 produces 740 PS (544 kW; 730 hp) at 8250 rpm and 690 N·m (509 lb·ft) of torque at 6000 rpm, making it the most powerful Ferrari roadcar to date, only surpassed by LaFerrari. This allows the F12berlinetta to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in an officially reported 3.1 seconds, 0 to 200 km/h (120 mph) in 8.5 seconds and a top speed of over 350 km/h (220 mph).
The engine of the F12berlinetta has been designed to be more efficient than that of the 599, as well as more powerful. The engine management system is fitted with Ferrari's HELE start-stop system to reduce fuel consumption when idling. Ferrari reports that the F12berlinetta can achieve 18 mpg-imp (15.7 L/100 km; 15.0 mpg-US) – a 30% improvement over the 599 – and produces CO2 emissions of 350 g/km.
Transmission
Similar to the California, 458 Italia, FF and LaFerrari, the F12berlinetta transmits power through a 7-speed dual-clutch automated semi-automatic gearbox operated by the driver using paddle shifters behind the steering wheel. Compared to similar models, the F12berlinetta uses shortened gear ratios to match the power of the engine.
Chassis
The F12berlinetta is built around an aluminium space frame chassis co-developed with Scaglietti. The chassis is made up of 12 different aluminium alloys and improves structural rigidity by 20% over the 599, whilst reducing weight by 70 kg (150 lb). The centre of gravity has been lowered by around 25 mm (1 in). The F12berlinetta's weight distribution is 48% front, 52% rear.
Similar to other contemporary Ferrari models, the F12berlinetta uses Ferrari's third generation CCM3 carbon ceramic disc brakes with ABS, SCM-E magnetorheological suspension, an electronic LSD, ESP Premium stability control and F1-Trac traction control. The car's stability and traction control, suspension and other settings are controlled by the Manettino dial mounted on the steering wheel.
Tires
The F12berlinetta is fitted with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, with the tyre codes 255/35ZR20 at the front and 315/35ZR20 at the rear.
Aerodynamics
The F12berlinetta makes use of aerodynamic techniques based on Ferrari's 599XX and Formula One programmes, developed with wind tunnel and CFD testing. A notable feature is the Aero Bridge, an air channel running from the bonnet, through the flanks and along the sides of the vehicle, creating an effect that increases downforce. Another feature is Active Brake Cooling ducts, which open to direct cooling air only when the brakes are hot, keeping them closed at other times to reduce aerodynamic drag. The F12berlinetta produces 200 kg (440 lb) of downforce at 200 km/h (120 mph) – an increase of 76% over the 599 GTB – and has a drag coefficient of 0.299.
Performance
Ferrari reports that the F12berlinetta is capable of lapping the Fiorano test circuit in 1 minute, 23 seconds; three seconds slower than LaFerrari, a full second faster than the 599 GTO, two seconds faster than the Enzo, two seconds faster than the 458 Italia, two seconds faster than the 430 Scuderia and three and a half seconds faster than the 599 GTB.
Design
The body of the F12berlinetta is designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre and Pininfarina, and shares some styling elements with other recent Ferrari models. This includes a front grille similar to the FF and headlights shared with the FF and 458 Italia. The interior, based on the FF, features new "Frau leather" upholstery with aluminium, Alutex, and carbon fibre trim, and has increased luggage space compared to the 599.
