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.)

[β¦] I had a couple of hours yesterday to check out some of Turin's landmarks. [β¦]
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. Love the photographer's stance in the first image!

Had this beautiful little camera in a drawer for a couple of months now, and loaded it up for the first time today. Just felt like using it and took a couple of images of my daughters outside. It is super light weight, and while I much prefer the Leica's focus patch (probably because I am so used to it), the Olympus OM-1's microprism focusing screen works quite well. At least I hope so. It will take some time until I have the results.

A couple of weeks ago, I found a (tiny) wasp nest under the roof in the attic (where we usually hang our laundry to dry). After asking a friend who is a bee keeper (and knowledgable about this stuff), we made sure the nest was abandoned, then took it down this morning. We carefully cut it open to let the kids take a look inside. It has a beautiful structure and is amazingly light weight.

Jacobaea vulgaris, growing by the wayside. [β¦]
Jacobaea vulgaris, growing by the wayside. I pass this particular plant every day on my way to the office, and by now it is almost as tall as I am. My wife just told me that it is poisonous and sometimes mistaken for Hypericum, which is considered a medical plant. There you go!

The owners changed the name of the dog to βTinyβ, which I do not find as original as theβ¦ wellβ¦ original name of βAnne-Gretβ. But hey. The kids really enjoy their time with her, no matter what her name is. In other news, Daniel is currently having a great run with his monthly photo journal entries. We met in person for the first time last year at beyond tellerrand in DΓΌsseldorf, so there is two photos of me in his most recent post. Thanks, Daniel!

Feeling kind of uninspired in the last few days. [β¦]
Feeling kind of uninspired in the last few days. I'd probably have skipped today (and yesterday), if it wasn't for the 366 project. I'll be off work for two weeks, and have all these ideas, what to do during this time, but I guess I need to unwind for a bit first. We'll be visiting my parents next week, which I am very looking forward to. Plus having a change of scenery is always good for inspiration.

Walked past the flea market today. With kids this is dangerous territory, because they always find some toy they really like, and how can you say no to something that's just a Euro. But then again, that's one more toy lying around in the house. I am looking forward to the day, they themselves are ready to sell off their old stuff and I can go back to a more minimalistic life style. (I am well aware that this might never happen as long as we live under the same roofβ¦)
