Tag: Nikon D5200.

I sort of miss those days.

I really like my birthday present I got from my eldest brother πŸ™‚

A sort of meh weather today, mostly cloudy with the sun peeking through the clouds every now and again. It has been warm though so I really shouldn’t complain. Our morning walk was rather late today just because I hoped the sun would show itself more later in the day.

Instead I drove to the big grocery store in FalkΓΆping to get what I need for the weekend, nothing much really but cat food was a must πŸ™‚ Β It’s not that I don’t have any at home but more because she demands the cheapest brand there is, for some reason she loves that wet food and who am I to complain that it is cheap πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ I had to stop at the grocery store in Gudhem on my way home because I had two parcels waiting to be picked up. The small one was a camera I’ve bought myself as a birthday present (Nikon D5200), nothing special with that camera more that I can turn the little screen at the back in almost any direction I want. So much easier to photograph something on the ground when I don’t have to lie down to get a nice photograph. I just turn have the camera close to the ground, turn the screen so that I can see what I’m photographing and take the photo πŸ™‚

The blueberries are getting autumn colours.

The other parcel was more interesting, it was actually another camera that my eldest brother gave me as a birthday gift πŸ™‚ It is the camera shown in the first photo πŸ™‚ It is a TLR camera (for film) As You can see there are two lenses on the camera. The upper one is the one you look through and the lower one is the one taking the photo. A bit expensive as a gift but I would be an idiot if I didn’t accept it :-):-) πŸ™‚ As You can see there’s also a second lens pair beside it and that’s a telephoto lens. not too common for these old cameras to have that. It weighs a ton so It is perhaps nothing one just hang over the shoulder when going out for a walk, the shoulder would be needed to be adjusted after that πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

This is a really nice mushroom to fry and perhaps make a stew. Or just fry them and put them on a sandwich with cheese and other things πŸ™‚
This and the next ones are even better πŸ™‚ I’ll think I’ll bring a bag so I can pick them all tomorrow on our morning walk πŸ™‚
By the way, almost all photos today are taken with the “new” camera (I always buy second hand and when it is cheap πŸ™‚ ). It takes a few days until we know each other well enough so I can get photos to look like I want them to look πŸ™‚

It hasn’t rained today and the grass was surprisingly dry so after the walk I cut down those trunks from the plum trees, they really don’t look that big but they were so heavy that I almost wasn’t able to move them away πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ If I’ve been handy and known how to carve I would have had plenty to work with when they have dried up πŸ™‚

I had to take this and the next photo through the kitchen door window so they look a bit off I’m afraid.

It is time for that last cup of tea for the day and I’ll also have an ice cream at the same time.There’s absolutely nothing to watch on tv tonight. I remember when I was a kid, You know back in the Stone Age, that Friday and Saturday night were family tv nights. When everyone in the family gathered in front of the tv, perhaps having sodas/coffee and something nice to eat. Not so any more and I sort of miss it even if it only be me and my dogs sitting there. The monster would perhaps join us but she would only sleep in the sofa anyway πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

I really hope we don’t get frost next week because this is the only squash (I think it is squash, have actually no idea because I used seeds I had saved from something I harvested years ago and can’t remember what it was, could be a pumpkin as well πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ ). The plants only gave male flowers until now.

Have a great day!
