It was so lovely to photography the daily routine of a working station and the extra bonus was the fog. Olga
For this week's theme on Macro mondays a picture of my daily routine: For
breakfast I squeeze oat to flakes and add some fresh fruit (today: quince,
blueberry, banana, grapes). HMM
Bhaktapur is a city where time seemed to have stood still. The 2015 earthquake caused extensive damage to the historic structures, including temples and traditional Newari buildings. Even the renowned Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a major tourist attraction, suffered substantial destruction. The lives of the local residents were deeply affected, with loss of life, injuries, and displacement being the tragic outcomes. The cultural and economic facets of the city were also heavily influenced, as tourism played a crucial role in Bhaktapur's income. When we were there in April 2023, we were impressed by the progress that has been made to restore and rebuild all damaged structures. As we ventured through the winding narrow streets that guided us towards the famous square, we were just like in Lalitpur and Kathmandu impressed by the intricate carvings adorning the wooden buildings and the vibrant energy of local life. I tried to capture some candid street shots, freezing fleeting moments in time that revealed the very soul of this extraordinary place – Bhaktapur, Nepal
I don’t need big adventures.
I need morning routines and memories and a little bit of familiarity in the unknown. I need slow moments and tea and comfortable clothes. I need time to think and grasp and to be alone as much as shared moments by the fire.
I don’t need big adventures. I just need all of the little things.
I recently spent a week in the Auvergne in France and it was one of my favourite holidays I’ve been on. The people I was with were easygoing, everyone did their own thing every now and then, the countryside made me feel so calm, and I especially enjoyed all the little moments and daily routines.
Humans foolishly attempt to capture and design there lives replacing the immediate experience with photoshopped digital traces. What is more important is what is cropped out of the picture. In this case brutal, wild, yet gentle infinite power of the nature. Reimagining the vanitas genre.
This "reflects" where my daily routine starts and ends every day. (The reflection is in the 3/4" knob on the toilet paper holder.)
In Bhutan, young boys from poor families become monks to alleviate their families' burdens. Joining a monastery provides them with food, education, and healthcare, while securing their future and spiritual growth. However, their decision means sacrificing a typical childhood filled with play and enjoyment. Yet, their unwavering devotion and hope for a better future keep them committed to monastic life. As a photographer, I was granted permission to capture images of young monks at Paro Dzong, the administrative seat of Paro district in Bhutan. I spent a morning documenting their daily routines. To express my gratitude for their cooperation, I offered the young monks juices and sweets. Witnessing the joy that such a small gesture brought to these disciplined individuals living rigorous lives was truly heartwarming - Paro Dzong, Paro, Bhutan.
Macro Mondays Theme: (Part of) My Daily Routine
Part of my daily routine is reading books before bed. Before children I used to read a lot but this went by the wayside after having them as I was just too tired, especially the twins! As the children got older it took me longer to get to sleep. However my husband would be out like a light when his head hit the pillow and then start snoring. There was I struggling to sleep with the noise!! It took me a while to realise that if I started to read right before bed again that I would be more relaxed and ready for sleep. So now this is my daily routine so that I manage to get to sleep before him so the snoring doesn't bother me!! My other routine captured in the photo is in the background. I'm a stay at home mum so I wanted to keep my mind active with free brain games on Lumosity. What I like is there are only 3 a day to play so it doesn't take long, but it's definitely benefited my memory and attention.
Looking forward to seeing and reading about your daily routines. HMM to one and all and appreciate all your comments and favourites.
Beyond the bustling streets of Siem Reap, life takes on a different rhythm. On Tonlé Sap Lake, homes float, boats serve as daily transport, and the water is both a lifeline and a way of life. A glimpse into the everyday reality of Cambodia, where tradition and resilience go hand in hand.

Daily Routine #5
Tried to capture myself taking a picture in this sculpture across from the Convention Center.
In April, as I wandered through downtown Bhaktapur, I was captivated by the lively street scenes. The ancient temples stood as majestic landmarks, surrounded by intricately designed Newari-style buildings. The air resonated with the sounds of craftsmen, street performers, and the enticing aroma of local street food. Each photo I captured became a cherished glimpse into the vibrant street life of Bhaktapur, where tradition intertwines seamlessly with the rhythm of daily life – Bhaktapur, Nepal

“Then came the moment, after it was fully set, that my boyfriend interrupted my reading to say something to me and I tried to look up to look at him. Because I had the mask applied to my neck and my face, and then had my head tilted down somewhat whilst I was reading, it had set solid, and it really is this tight I'm not exaggerating, so that when I tried to lift my head after it setting, I couldn't move it. My neck/head were set at that angle and no matter what I couldn't budge my head up which meant moving my whole body in order to look at anything for the remainder of time it was on. Again, this wasn't really a big problem, but something I felt was worth mentioning…
I quite liked how tight it felt, and how it had frozen my head solid, because I figured it must be really doing something…”

This shot was taken a while back. And no, she’s not skinnin’ potatoes in the kitchen…that would be a massive improbability! :)

Stu is out in the garden every morning checking the produce. Today he picked all of our Liberty and Freedom Apples for me to bake with.
captured at a cheese shop in viktualienmarkt, this photograph beautifully juxtaposes the rush of modern life with the timeless allure of artisanal goods. a man hurries up a staircase, his reflection merging with the display of golden cheese wheels in the shop window. his obliviousness to the charming scene underscores the contrast between the fleeting nature of our daily routines and the enduring beauty that often goes unnoticed.

This is something we do every morning as long as the weather is good. Shizandra loves to play ball and we love to get out and play with her.
Kolkata /koʊlˈkɑːtɑː/, formerly Calcutta /kælˈkʌtə/, is the capital of the Indian state of West Bengal. Located on the east bank of the Hooghly river, it is the principal commercial, cultural, and educational centre of East India, while the Port of Kolkata is India's oldest operating port as well as its sole major riverine port. As of 2011, the city had 4.5 million residents; the urban agglomeration, which comprises the city and its suburbs, was home to approximately 14.1 million, making it the third-most populous metropolitan area in India. As of 2008, its economic output as measured by gross domestic product ranked third among South Asian cities, behind Mumbai and Delhi. As a growing metropolitan city in a developing country, Kolkata confronts substantial urban pollution, traffic congestion, poverty, overpopulation, and other logistic and socioeconomic problems.
In the late 17th century, the three villages that predated Kolkata were ruled by the Nawab of Bengal under Mughal suzerainty. After the Nawab granted the East India Company a trading license in 1690, the area was developed by the Company into an increasingly fortified mercantile base. Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah occupied Kolkata in 1756 after company started evading taxes and due to increasing militarization of the fort, the East India Company retook it in the following year and in 1793 assumed full sovereignty after Mughal governorship (Nizamat) was abolished. Under East India Company and later under the British Raj, Kolkata served as the capital of India until 1911, when its perceived geographical disadvantages, combined with growing nationalism in Bengal, led to a shift of the capital to New Delhi. The city was the centre of the Indian independence movement; it remains a hotbed of contemporary state politics. Following Indian independence in 1947, Kolkata—which was once the centre of modern Indian education, science, culture, and politics—witnessed several decades of relative economic stagnation. Since the early 2000s, an economic rejuvenation has led to accelerated growth.
As a nucleus of the 19th- and early 20th-century Bengal Renaissance and a religiously and ethnically diverse centre of culture in Bengal and India, Kolkata has established local traditions in drama, art, film, theatre, and literature that have gained wide audiences. Many people from Kolkata—among them several Nobel laureates—have contributed to the arts, the sciences, and other areas, while Kolkata culture features idiosyncrasies that include distinctively close-knit neighbourhoods (paras) and freestyle intellectual exchanges (adda). West Bengal's share of the Bengali film industry is based in the city, which also hosts venerable cultural institutions of national importance, such as the Academy of Fine Arts, the Victoria Memorial, the Asiatic Society, the Indian Museum and the National Library of India. Among scientific and technical institutions, Kolkata hosts the Agri Horticultural Society of India, the Geological Survey of India, the Botanical Survey of India, the Indian Science Congress Association, the Zoological Survey of India, the Institution of Engineers and the Anthropological Survey of India. Though home to major cricketing venues and franchises, Kolkata differs from other Indian cities by giving importance to association football and other sports.
In Bhutan, young boys from impoverished families willingly enter monastic life to alleviate their families' burdens. By joining a monastery, they gain access to essential provisions such as food, education, and healthcare, which not only secure their future but also facilitate their spiritual growth. Nevertheless, this decision comes at the cost of a conventional childhood filled with play and enjoyment. Despite the sacrifices, their unwavering devotion and hope for a better future keep them steadfast in their commitment to the monastic path. I was fortunate to be granted permission to capture poignant images of these young monks at Paro Dzong, the administrative seat of Paro district in Bhutan. During my time there, I immersed myself in documenting their daily routines, hoping to portray their lives with authenticity and sensitivity. Towards the end of our session, I gathered the young monks in the income hall of the main prayer hall, where I invited them to join me for a group portrait - Paro Dzong, Paro, Bhutan.
