Family trip to Gruga this morning. [β¦]
Family trip to Gruga this morning. We've been here dozens of times (come to think of it, it's probably rather hundreds of times) but we are still finding areas we have not exhaustively explored. I took out the 56mm 1.2 again. It is my favorite Fuji lens β besides the OG 35mm 1.4.

Another Kidical Mass ride took place in Essen yesterday. First time the girls took their own bikes. Lumi cycled the whole distance (a bit over 10 km), Suvi hitched a ride (aka we loaded her and her bike onto the Tern) after about one km. I think that many people felt a bit overwhelming still.

[β¦] I like capturing the world form their perspective [β¦]
Based on the images I post on this blog, it would seem that I only photograph my children from behind. Which is obviously not the case. π But I like capturing the world form their perspective. With scenes like the one above, I usually take several shots, one of my children in focus, and another one β depending if it makes for an interesting image β focused on the thing they are looking at. (In this actual case, they were looking at an airship, but I couldn't get it and them into the same frame. Wrong focal lengthβ¦)

We visited the zoo in Duisburg today. I don't know, I always feel heavy-hearted in these places, especially in the presence of the more intelligent/sentient animals, like elephants. Anyways, I think the kids enjoyed seeing some of these animals for the first time (aside from in books of course). Watching the little suricates being busy was their favorite.

Passed by lake Baldeney today and obviously had to stop and take some photographs.

Some days (well, probably most days) I do not really know what to write about down here below the image. That's probably why I chose to primarily share photographs! They not always speak for themselves, but they don't need to either. There is not always a story attached to them. Sometimes something just catches my eye, and then I take a photograph. That's it.

We have to pass exactly four traffic lights on our way to kindergarten. I optimized the route over the years to avoid traffic lights as much as possible, because all of them are switched in a way, that is pretty pedestrian/cyclist hostile and all in favor of cars. And I hate waiting.

Earlier today we visited La Pista 500, which is an old test track, built on top of Lingotto, which was once a car factory operated by Fiat β and is currenlty the location for this yearsβ WordCamp Europe. The traditional round tables at Contributer Day reminded me of my very first one in Leiden in 2013. I am sure somebody can give me the exact numbers, but it feels like there were more people here today contributing, than there were attendees in total at WordCamp Europe 2013. It is a very different event compared to back then.

Had a lot of interesting conversations today at the first day of WordCamp Europe. Now I am so very exhausted and need to recharge. I didn't take many images, which I think is good. We set ourselves a goal to get some input on our plugin business, and that's what we did β and will be doing tomorrow. So not having time or the mind set for photographing is a good thing in this case. π

Another great day at #WCEU. Many insightful conversations made me feel like this time around I really got much more out of the event than in previous years, because I actually set some goals for myself. Anyways β photo-wise today was all over the place. But it turns out that I like a couple of portraits I took the most. I am quite happy how they turned out. So I guess, thank you Luca (on the right), for coaxing me into trying something, I usually don't do. π (I'll probably post some event documentation type photos tomorrow.)

Made it back home! I was quicker than my luggage, though, most likely because I had only 10 minutes between connecting flights in Munich. It will β hopefully β arrive later today. Lufthansa's process in this case is fortunately very transparent. (Fingers crossed they don't botch it on the last stretch.) I had a couple of hours yesterday to check out some of Turin's landmarks.
