Was just fiddling with the camera when the screen saver came on.

Candle-ware, iPad, iMac and stuff like that are part of the daily routine.

 

Advice. You may prefer longer and less wide desks, but after all the most usable ones are the not-so-lengthy but deeeep ones.

 

The 146x50 cm MICKE has now been replaced by a 120x60 cm VIKA. And, yes 10cm of depth really make a difference.

On our 4th attempt, the Otters along the River Stour finally showed for us. Most are of the Mum (Sow) and her two pups. Only once did the Dog Otter make a brief appearance and had a little encounter with his Sow.

Spring Hazelcup (Encoelia furfuracea) in a small coppiced woodland on the South Downs, South Downs Natinal Park, West Sussex, England

This is my workspace, people!

 

Everyday, all day. Recently I also "stole" this stool from our living room and perfectly made it fit on that corner. The pillows added to the colorful composition of the wall.

 

God, the HDR feature of the iPhone 4 is awesome!

This little wall thingy has saved appreciable desk real estate.

 

Plus those hangers can be really useful for items that are usually lost somewhere in the room.

Forgot to get a photo of the chair along the desk.

 

So here it is with a sheep skin and back-supporting pillow from IKEA. Also it perfectly fits between the HELMERS! Precisely.

This is my office at home were I host multiple websites, like www.neue-bands.de and do some stock trading....

Otter (Lutra lutra) along the River Stour, Dorset England

 

On our 4th attempt, the Otters along the River Stour finally showed for us. Most are of the Mum (Sow) and her two pups. Only once did the Dog Otter make a brief appearance and had a little encounter with his Sow.

So I handed down to my sister the old MICKE desk.

 

I got a second HELMER drawer chest, and used it with my old white one as legs for a 120cm x 60cm VIKA AMON desk surface.

 

About a month ago, I had seen an article somewhere in Lifehacker or so, about the easy LACK+RIBBA desk elevator thing.

 

So I got the LACK shelf I had, placed two RIBBA frames on the desk and aligned it on top of them. The iMac is heavy enough to keep it sturdy, but I try not to move everything around. Nothing is screw-driven, whatsoever.

I find this practical. For various reasons.

 

Also, you can get an idea of the backlight on the iMac and of the shelf below it.

Finally people!

 

iBoot and Snow Leopard found each other and are now living in the alter ego of my HTPC.

 

This Mac Pro wannabe is fully functional, thank God.

Neat and tidy, as always :p

 

You could say I have some sort of OCD...

 

Oh, and the bed is not from IKEA, quite surprisingly!

Geastrum britannicum

Midhurst, West Sussex England

 

This is the 3rd season this new British species has been found in Sussex. Dawn and I found the first known (unfortunately mis-identified at the time) in the county in 2014 and after finding it again in 2015 we reported it to the SxBRC and to the Sussex County Recorder for Fungi. With his help and the taking of samples, it was confirmed by Kew in May 2015 as the new British species and this year it has appeared again in large numbers at this site.

Bored at my desk one day so I took some shots with my Fuji XE3 exploring DOF. That's my Mac Pro workstation in the foreground - the "Cheese Grater!".

In just a few months I'll be off to Kenya again for this year's Masai Mara Migration tour. Being on the road for the majority of the year, it's sometimes difficult to find the time to go through all the images, make selections and process shots. Today I found myself looking on the internet for 2TB drives to replace the 1TB drives that are now installed in my MacPro. But what I should actually do, is look at everything that I've shot and throw away the bad stuff. That should free at least 75% of the available disk space and save me a lot of money. :) So today I finally started to have a closer look at last year's Kenya shots, and this is one of the images that stood out.

 

While I usually try to isolate and separate my subjects to get the clean and graphic look I like so much, here I was much more interested in capturing the incredible mood of the scene in front of me. It was late afternoon when we stumbled across this small herd of wildebeest (not so difficult, considering we were almost unable to land our plane on the airstrip because there were so many of them). The backlighting, the rimlight, the warm colors, and the dust kicked up by the wildebeest , turned this otherwise mundane scene into tons of atmosphere. Instead of isolating one or two wildebeest, I therefore decided to frame it quite wide to show the lovely play of light.

 

I included a fair amount of empty sky, but I would never consider cropping it to a panoramic. Even though there is not an awful lot going on there, the subtle textures imo are essential for the shot. I did try it, also losing a slice from the bottom, but for me the wider approach works best.

This was my initial HELMER bought. I got a second one for a HUGE discount [€25->€9], but it was in grey. So to blend these two together, I exchanged half of the drawers.

 

Funky and easy.

This wall... It was too empty, so I got mirrors! And every now an then, I will get a new frame to put in the top right nail.
