Nikon D300


Wheee! Finally I've gotten myself a new camera. A D300 with a 18-200 VR. Still waiting for the real glass, the 70-200 f/2.8 VR and the 14-24 f/2.8 to arrive...

ESPN X Games


The ESPN X games held at Festival City last weekend was some kind of showjumping with motorbikes. At least it looked like that to me, but I'm no sports fan so I might be totally wrong. :-P

Car park indicators


In this parking garage at Festival City there's a light in the ceiling above each parking space that turns red or green depending on if it's occupied or not. This allows you to see the free spaces from a long distance. Really neat function!

Stormy weather


Windy, dark clouds and sunset. It would be a nice backdrop for a scary movie.
