Saddly, no-one captured my 15K views.
Why could it be? The main culprit for it would by my artistic inactivity.
I haven't had any new Deviations submitted for a long time. Partly because I was too busy with life, work, etc.
Partly because I didn't photograph that much lately.

Undevelopped rolls in my fridge, with god knows what on it, it makes me wonder ...

But last week I was in Berlin, taking a well deserved vacation break from the busy July working period.
When in July we had this multi facetted festival going on, and lots of people were photographing the bands, the people, the atmosphere, and my trigger finger got itchy.
I had to rekindle my love for the lightscribing again, and hence I was still the analogue man, I first took my dads digital camera, took a few shots (none of them great, because it was the first I used it) and secondly the Nikon from work.
I experimented a bit, took a few good ones and was all retaken by the shutterbug.
I'll upload the good ones soon, but they're on my work computer.

Now, in Berlin I had my old trusty Pentax analogue beast with me, 2 lenses (50mm 1.8 and a 28-80mm) and the leftover unused rolls in the fridge (2 cheap colour rolls of 200 ASA, 1 Kodak Tri-X 400 ASA my preferred format, 1 Kodak CN Sepia film 400 ASA and a Kodak 3200 ASA that I had still in my camera with only 8 pics taken, so that'll make some funky double exposures later when I re-use it).

First days I used my colours to do some basic touristy pics of stuff, but the last day or so, we went to Olympia Stadium, which unfortunately was closed due to the World Championships Athletics (amazing recordbreaking stuff going over there) but the stadium itself was only open for people with tickets, so saddly no grainy shots of Nazi Architecture for me.
But not far from the stadium there is this amazing site called Teufelsberg ( check <a href=\"http://maps.google.nl/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=teufelsberg+berlin&sll=52.469397,5.509644&sspn=4.484907,14.117432&ie=UTF8&ll=52.497864,13.241159&spn=0.002188,0.006893&t=h&z=18&lci=com.panoramio.all\"> for directions).

Amazing, all I can say, I shot almost 2 rolls of film on the place.

Hope they turn out well when I get the rolls developped, and scanned!

New Deviations are coming your way, so look out for those beauties, oh yeah (F. Mercury - Queen)

Now I've gotten your attention eh?
Seriously, rent that movie, great laugh.

Anyhow, almost 15.000 pageviews, I can't believe it that I came that far, with my meager and measely gallery.
I know, I know, I'll have to start submitting when I get my 15k views,
just haven't been photographing lately (5 rolls a year ain't much, still undevelopped goodness awaiting in the fridge).

Been to busy with effing real life taking away all my precious free time away. Damn you work!

So, for the person screengrabbing the 15.000, choose a piece, and I'll make a print and send it to you, how does that sound for making ammends?

Good hunting, I mean PRTSC-ing!

And now I'm of to the spring sun (but it's night? shh inner voice, don't confuse the readers!)

Seasons pass by while on hiatus

The last remnants of what appeared to be a little Indian Summer have finally faded for the cold and brewing weather of fall.

Fall, is in essence, for me the photographic seasons, with it's vivid colourscheme, ever changing in front of our eyes.

It also is a season of rapid change, so maybe my artistic dryspell can be overcome!

Workwise, the halftime has become a full time as of November.
My weekend shifts still are exhausting, and the upcoming weeks and next month won't change that. Every weekend 2 days/nights in a row.
My biorhythm is completely fucked up, as I was a night creature before, but now I certainly am ever so much!

Can't complain really, the job is always full of surprises, it always is different from party to party.
The music is most of the time not really my cup of tea, but weekends like the last one keep me happy.
How would you react when you enter your venue, only to see it occupied by girls only? Too bad my sole position as a man quickly got overhauled as others enter the fray.

So, till the next update on life, the universe and everything in between!

Yatta! Yatta!

After years of living of welfare and unemployment checks, this bearded fellow here landed a job!

It's a half time contract, mostly weekend work in the Cultural Youth Centre where our youthclub resides in.
I'll be the weekendresponsible, the spokesperson for the centre and liaison for all the event organizers that hold parties and gigs and other things in it.
I'm the one keeping an eye on everything that goes around on their nights, the one to report if there are problems, etc etc.

And the sun is shining here in Belgium, although it's still a tad bit cold for the year!
Yes spring time is upon us!
