mini-me

my parents are not the computer-techy type. but when i went to the netherlands, 5 years ago, we taught them to use msn and skype to keep in touch, and ever since then, they’ve been slowly venturing into these new technologies. they can manage their bank accounts online, pay for stuff and make spreadsheets/presentations… and to my surprise, the other day my dad sent me the link of a flickr account he created all by himself! :D i was so immensely proud!

new pictures have slowly been finding their way there. many are from their holidays in recent years, some from unknown ancestors and the ones i like the most, pictures from when we were kids! :D my dad has always been a keen photographer, and we are really lucky to have hundreds of pictures of us taken with his zenit. some will undoubtedly find their way to this blog, now and then.

this is little ana, celebrating her one year old in the algarve!

like sakura, 2

i’ve never been to japan, but sometimes when i look at these snowy photos, i imagine what it would be like to stand in the middle of a field of cherry blossom trees. it would be really neat – and probably not so cold… my camera doesn’t like the cold so much, though my fingers and body seem to be adapting to winter rather well – i’m the strange girl who doesn’t need gloves when it’s minus 10 degrees outside… :/

soft rime

Soft rime is a white ice deposition that forms when the water droplets in light freezing fog or mist freeze to the outer surfaces of objects, with calm or light wind. The fog freezes usually to the windward side of tree branches, wires, or any other solid objects.

we’re learning about types of ice we had never seen outside of finnish postcards. soft rime is unbelievably beautiful and eerie, and makes simple walks in the park truly magical experiences. it only happens once in a while when the conditions are perfect, so every time one of those days comes along, we run out of the house, cameras in hand :)
