There are a plethora of reasons to publish this blog post and these images.

To most this is probably not a big revelation, but to me something clicked this morning.

❮ ❯ × My first car, with licens plates, was a 1976 Opel Kadett C Coupé with a trick 2,5 liter CIH engine and double 48 mm Weber carburettors.

As I am sitting here typing away at the keys on my laptop the warmth of the coffee flows through the body and I go from too cold to too warm as the perspiration emerges on my forehead.

Following on from my last post Getting started with Google Gemini AI and dotnet I finally had some time to get a bit further.

This will be short, boring and won’t save the World.

I can remember it like it was yesterday.

In my recent “recent” attack on editing old images I came upon the images I took at the Porsche Luftgekuhlt event in Copenhagen in 2024.

If you by any unrealistic chance should have read some of my recent posts, then you will know that I am as stable as a slow turning spinning top when it comes to decisions about cameras.

There is a saying - at least that I have heard - that goes something like this: If it is dark and grey - go for black and white Meaning that if there is not really any interesting light then the scene is better shot in black and white instead of color.

These images are close to two years old at this point.

Building on my post from yesterday (Letters from a Stoic - Letter 2) I decided to continue with letter 3 today.

❮ ❯ × I have so many pictures on my hard drive that I have never shared with anyone.

❮ ❯ × I recently picked up my very well used copy of Seneca’s “Letters from a stoic”.

There is something about ferries. ❮ ❯ × For centuries they have been carriers of journeys to far flung places. ❮ ❯ × They lie there in the darkest of seas.

I am circling around trying to avoid it.

I was inspired by an article I read on Hacker News about writing your own agent.

I have started reading “Build a large language model from scratch”.

I currently work as freelance IT consultant in roles as Tech Lead, Enterprise/Solution/Software Architect or Product Owner.

This is the first time I have tried to change valve guides, so please take the following with that huge caveat.

As part of renovating the engine for my 1959 Triumph Bonneville T120 I need to get to the sludge trap in the crankshaft.

AI has made a significant leap the past years, at least for the uninitiated like myself.

I feel like I am very late to the party.

Edit - as everyone hopefully knows Flexible Color Picture Control was brought to the Nikon Zf a long time ago.

I really love Fujifilm cameras for a whole host of reasons.

I was not even looking for it.

I had the great opportunity to see the Porsche aircooled car/art show “Luftgekuhlt” in Copenhagen this Saturday.

I have always had a keen interest in cars and especially in making them faster and better handling.

We are close to December here in Denmark and driving season seems over.

There are two reasons why I keep this blog/website alive.

I have spent a few years using Linux(Ubuntu) as my “daily driver”.

Seems especially prevalent in the photography community.

For a long time I have been looking for the “ultimate lens” for my weird needs and finally it seems like I have found it with the Voigtlander 27mm F2.

I shoot a lot of black & white images.

It is not that you cannot buy a rear fender for a V7 Sport.

In order to get to where I end up being the proud owner of a 1959 Triumph Bonneville, we have to go a few years back.

This is me then.

I have just signed up for my first flat track event.

As I wrote recently, I had bought my dream camera (X-Pro3) and then returned it.

For a very long time I have been looking at the Fujifilm X-Pro3 as the “dream” camera.

I had the pleasure of seeing the beautiful Copenhagen skyline from the tower of Christiansborg.

These are my highlights from volume 1 of Farthest North by Fridtjof Nansen.

This following blog post is actually a year old and originally appeared on 35mmc.com where I got it published.

The month of December has brought both a new camera as well as two rolls of film.

November has brought a good amount of pictures to the portfolio.

It has been months since the last installment of my “Roll of film” blog posts.

Processophobia – the fear of processes often triggered by the word “process”.

The adventure bike segment has exploded the last couple of years.

I am a big fan of motorcycles.

Since I re-started analogue photography a year and a half ago, my trusty Fujifilm X-T2 haven’t seen much action.
