Day 100 – Gone like a Smoke

June 29, 2017July 4, 2017Posted in 365 Project, Everyday objects, Festivals, Getting started1 Comment

100 days… I’m quite proud of myself!

On one hand, it has been easier to continue taking (and posting) photos than I expected. I have never yet felt like giving up. (Although, I’m not very good at sticking to a routine.) On another hand, I never could have imagined how hard it is to come up with a different photo every day. I have never realised how rarely there is anything photogenic happening in my life – especially as I am trying to avoid alienating all my friends by having the camera on their faces every time we meet…

100 down, 265 to go. My imagination will need to get in a better shape.

Day 98 – Splash of Pineapple

June 27, 2017July 2, 2017Posted in 365 Project, Cooking, Everyday objects, WaterLeave a comment

Raw pineapple is the only thing I’m allergic to – Something I found out the hard way years ago, after having some pineapple for lunch during work. After the pineapple is cooked, the acidity reduces and I can happily eat it to my heart’s content. Nevertheess, we rarely have pineapple in the house.

Last weekend I found a recipe I wanted to try. Luckily pineapples are in season.

Day 97 – Coffee or Breakfast

I don’t drink coffee. I absolutely love the idea of it – the Something-to-start-your-day, the flavours, the warm cup… I would love to drink coffee. I just detest the taste. Hate it.

So I would choose breakfast every morning. And Stuart would always choose coffee.

Day 96 – Braai

Braai is probably the best ‘South African’ word there is. It just sounds so much better than BBQ. Even my Finnish family has adopted the word to their speech. And luckily, spit braai does not actually require you to spit.

Day 94 – Splash of Red

Friday. Wine.

Day 92 – Binding of a story

As mentioned before, both Stuart and I are passionate readers. We both get through at least 1-2 books a week – but unfortunately never read the same books. We have the same taste in almost everything, but books. Therefore, we both have to go through the pain of finding what to read next – every week.

Day 91 – Fork and Fork

Some evenings when I come home, I really struggle for photo topics. It sometimes feels I have already taken a picture of every single object in the house. Those days, internet can be useful. This picture was inspired by few photographers much better than myself. But I guess that is one sign of a great photo. It inspires. So thank you!
