A rainbow at the end of a rain

DJ — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 23:12:29 +0000

Dutch weather was a bit crazy last week with rain almost daily. What was unusual was the fact that it would be sunny for a minute or two and then it would rain for five minutes and then sunny again. Some days were better and other days were just strange with dark and windy sky [...]

Sony Ericsson Satio Video and Photo Samples

DJ — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 23:50:29 +0000

I am happy with the overall performance of the Satio. The camera feature is the most important to me and with a good enough video capture I don’t mind not having HD quality. That will come in the later version without a doubt. The Satio fits perfectly in my pocket. I can be out and [...]

Laugh About It

DJ — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 19:24:39 +0000

A song I heard on Q Music earlier today from Nederland.fm by Racoon. Laugh About It by Racoon. Can you give me solid ground, cause all my footsteps turn me down. One by one. Can you give me free advice, I don’t know if I can, but I’ll try to listen. And I can blast friendship to hell, or I can try to make [...]

Fall colors along the canal

DJ — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 15:23:28 +0000

When it doesn’t rain, then it’s a good day in NL. There are plenty of colorful things to keep me distracted along the canal when I go for a walk.

Fall colors

DJ — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 22:51:50 +0000

A set of photos I took at a park on October 14, 2009. I love the various shades of the leaves during this time of the year. The air is fresh and cool, not too warm and not too cold, just perfect weather for walking.

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol

DJ — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 19:41:04 +0000

Schiphol Airport is quite busy than usual during the summer months with people going on their one month or longer vacation. I was there in mid August to send off Johan’s parents for their one month annual vacation in Bali. I like going to Schiphol Airport because it is the only place that I know [...]

End of summer water lily

DJ — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 20:57:09 +0000

There were a few water lilies floating in the canal along my walking path toward the end of summer. I’ll have to look for them again next year. For now I can only enjoy the photos that I took of them earlier this year.

Biking path

DJ — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 22:14:21 +0000

My favorite biking path to take a walk alone and to take pictures along the way. It’s nice to just stand there on the tiny bridge over the canal and watch the ducks pass by. Simple pleasure in life that doesn’t cost anything.

Summer walk along the canal

A few clips from my summer walk during the month of August. Summer came and went by quick and now I can only look forward to spring. This year is going by too quickly.
