Hello, anybody there?

Hmm… not even my photo got Weblogs.com to put me on the updates list. Weird. Does it decrease the number of scans if you don’t post anything for a couple of days?

Whatever, I need to go to bed now.

This is another one of the photos I took Sunday. I’m not sure why the colours in this photo are so different from the other photos. It was the same time and the same place, and I didn’t photoshop it. Seems like my camera likes to add its personal touch to the pics…

I don’t get it. Now that Oliver has managed to get The Far Side of My Mind back on the Weblogs.com update list, my updates don’t appear any more. I flipped the page this morning around ten (GMT +2), but it didn’t show up. Let’s see if this change goes unnoticed as well.

Too bad, I can’t reach Dangerousmeta at the moment. But Hal writes his heart is okay. Great news!

Schön, reich und berühmt…

… wird jetzt vielleicht der Schockwellenreiter, denn er ist in einem Artikel der Zeit erwähnt: Intime Notizen für alle.

Meine regelmäßigen Zeit-Links mußten in den letzten Wochen wegen Examensvorbereitung ja leider ausfallen, aber heute hat Jörg meinen Job übernommen.

[Und da Jörg in seinem heutigen Eintrag zu mir linkt, kriege ich von seinem Ruhm vielleicht sogar ein bißchen ab - in Form von Referrern. ]

Sunset

Today’s sunset. The photos were taken on the Meßdorfer Feld in Bonn and near Alfter-Oedekoven (the panorama) between 9 and 9:30 pm. A beautiful way to end a busy week…

I’m still working my way through Jeff‘s Alaska photos. Fortunately, the photos are loading much faster now than they did a couple of days ago because we got an ADSL internet connection on Friday. ISDN was fast, but with DSL everything loads almost as fast as if the stuff were on your hard disk. Wow!

I think I need a separate site for my photos. While I like the light blue background, it’s not very good for displaying photos on it. That’s why I add the white frame to all the pics, but I think the perfect solution would be black, white or grey (like Jeff uses) background.

Ah, so many great photos, so little time. I haven’t even made it through half of Jeff’s Alaska Photolog.

Oh, and Susan had some wonderful pics of Santa Barbara.

Personal

Yesterday, we finally got the dates for the written exams. The first one is on August 6th, the last one on the 24th. Not a long time for five exams of four hours each! However, there’s one advantage: The sooner I take the exams and the sooner they’re over, the sooner I can start preparing for the oral exams in October and November.

And now I’m off to bed. Gute Nacht!
