Officially she's not due until two more weeks. I'm pretty sure she'll be out to say hello just a bit before that. My wife is getting huge and is starting to look like someone who really wants to have a baby RIGHT NOW!!!

...and thanks for asking :)

Day 88
Visited a friend and tried a little petography




And then there was the real reason we were there in the first place

Now I'm hungry!! LOL

Love the building face. Like the architecture shot we spoke about, this might be better with a little vertical perspective correction to square the sides. It's problematic, though, because it's taken off-center, so even if you had room at the top to tilt forward, getting all the lines straight is still difficult.

Nice set of shots Jonas. Particularly love that building. The ivy seems to be growing out into the trees :D

Re: nidding's first year of shooting

Thank you both :) I'm happy that you like it. I was in a bit of a hurry when working with it, so I didn't even think of correcting the lines. I think I'll try to correct them when I get a little time.
There's a lot of buildings on my university that are very well proportion end and interesting, so it's a great place to have a walk with a camera. The staircase we talked about earlier, Jake, was also on campus.

Besides the straightening, I think I would not crop so tightly, leaving a little more background on either side. But very nice shot. Interesting building.

I think the dog is wondering if that is his sandwich that you are building. I hope he at least got a bite.

Re: nidding's first year of shooting

Thank you all! And thank you so much for the constructive feedback! That is great to get some things to work with and try to improve.
I've tried to adjust the building to get a better perspective. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a looser crop, as the surroundings didn't allow me to take the photo from further away without getting all sorts of clutter on the sides and background. Instead I tried to center the building a bit more.


The dog was very interested in the cooking - both of them were, but as the sandwiches were quite spicy we didn't give them a taste. They were good however ;)

Day 89
My fishtank is suffering heavily from my lack of time to look after it, and is pretty green from algae, which means it's not a very good subject for photography at the moment.However my zoanthid corals are thriving, so with the right amount of zoom, it can give a decent photo :)

Day 90
Besides my studies I have a job at a local open air museum. It's out of season now, but I went by today and took a few pictures

Day 91
Okay, so this is the same flower as on day 86. It has changed colours quite dramatically, which I wanted to try and capture :)
