Bergfrid and Pedro’s Blogs

As We were quietly watching Federer and Nadal go at it at the Wimbledon finals in men’s tennis, rain broke new records (highest amount of rain in my area since 1952) and with my usual luck, my basement was flooded ( images here ).

So do not expect a lot of photography from me in a few weeks, at the least until I’ve gotten things more or less in order again - it may even be that my webserver goes down every now and then.

I spent the better part of this saturday morning fixing up an application that will let a slacker friend of mine export his images to his apache-based web server. At the same time, I figured I needed a wee bit shorter URL’s to my own images (if you’ve ever tried to look at the image url, you’d probably be scared!), so I wrote a small wrapper that is able to fetch the correct image using the filename of the original without disclosing the RAW image that lies behind. Pretty cool, innit?

This lets me insert images like this without a link that takes up 5 lines of space, AND they now include an embedded watermark! Go ahead! right-click the image,check it’s properties, and look at the sexah url!

So tell me, what did YOU do this morning?

Working out…
3 Weeks ago, I upped the ante and I’m now working out every week-day for a grand total of 5 intense one-hour workouts per week.

A total of fifteen sessions the last 3 weeks as opposed to the usual 9 was hard as hell the first two weeks, with the last one being rather OK.

Last week, I went to a seek some advice at my SATS gym, and together with a professional, I now have a 3-split workout program for my weight training in addition to two spinning sessions per week.

Photography…

My devotion to photography has been renewed lately, but due to the intense step-up in working out, I’ve not had much spare time to actually do any work except planning and testing various light scenarios. I did however take a small walkabout with Knackezapper Ole and with Lene from work, aiming to learn how to use the flash better. Ole, of course, had to catch me in a moment where I (almost) wasn’t prepared!

Oh ,and I almost forgot! It’s our constitution day today! Hail to the Kingdom!
