In two days…

26 05 2013

…the weather has gone from “freezing” (according to my wife…) to “too hot” for Pifa… she was waiting constantly by the door… wanting to get out… and she laid down on the concrete floor in the garage to cool down… 🙂





Pifa – plugged-in..! :-)

Pifa… waiting by the door… for her daily walk… 😀

(Yes.. she’s been to the doctor… taking some blood-samples… 🙂 )





Spring is here… random photos from home…

12 05 2013

Some photos from todays trip with Pifa, some outside, some from the balcony…

All photos, except one, are taken with my Canon equipment.. it needed some air… started to get jealous… ;-P

Can you guess which one is taken with the Leica? 🙂

(yes yes… I know… the info in the pictures are telling… 🙂 )





Playing around with my new Leica on my afternoon walk with Pifa…

…it’s so light… so different… so manual… no autofocus.. no bells… no whistles… no programs (aperture and manual mode only…)… no looking “through the lens” (TTL)… you really don’t know exactly what you will get… rangefinders are truly different… and amusing… and you have to stop… and think… and frame the picture… not just blast away and later pick the best one…

Although I knew all this, from a technical viewpoint, it is still… ehh.. better in a way than I thought…

I can’t explain it… and I guess that is the point… the old adage may be valid after all: seeing is believing… 🙂





Pifa looked happy too.. ;-)

A tribute to our beloved dog Pifa..!

25 10 2012

Today Pifa passed an “Obedience training course”, and can move on to “bronze level” 🙂

A big tribute to my wife Monica also who is the best dog-trainer ever! 🙂

Just some everyday pictures of Pifa, but on the other hand… that is how she looks to us every day! 😀





Sunrays and optical effects… nice blend…
