Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
I’ve been so busy with my job, Christmas activities, and the usual list of “honey-do” chores that I haven’t had time to do much photography lately. So I had to go back to some photos I made a couple of months ago for this morning’s selection. A distracting car show background […]
Merry Christmas!
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
We still say “Merry Christmas!” at my house. I know that nowadays some stores forbid their employees to give or return that greeting for fear of offending someone who doesn’t recognize or celebrate Christmas, and I think that’s sad. It’s a greeting that should be accepted with the friendliness and good […]
802 - The Lure Of The Sea
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
It’s 17 months now since the last time that I’ve been to Savudrija, a fabulously picturesque fishing harbor in Croatia. Honestly, I have no idea why I keep my visits so sparse.
From Villach, it takes about 2.5 hours to get there. It would even make sense […]
801 - Mountain Sunset
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
I’m very short of time. It’s past 8am and I want to make a trip to Italy today, thus we’ll keep it short.
This image was shot yesterday at sundown. I had hoped for something more spectacular in the south-western sky, and it may have happened indeed, at […]

A Bit Of Gift Giving Humor
Submitted by Howard Grill Blog
OK, so this one isn’t about photography! But sometimes I see something that I think would be fun to share. I really got a kick out of this little video about what happens when men mess up and give their spouse/girlfriend a gift that lacks thoughtful input……
Check it out here and […]

Looking Like Christmas
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring.
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart
Across the land, at schools and churches, children’s Christmas plays and pageants are being performed to the delight of proud parents and relatives. Yeah, […]

799 - Imaginary Friend
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
Three weeks ago, the morning after the first real snowfall, my first view out of the bedroom window was greeted by the friendly smile of a snowman. Alas, in the evening he was already missing arms, and the next morning rain had reduced him to a small, […]
798 - Train Song
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
I’m on the train to Carinthia right now. The choice of images was not exactly lush, I had five images of two subjects, one of each subject usable at all, one subject totally boring, well, that narrowed it down to - this.
Of course we had rain again, […]

A Better Moustrap….The Flowerpod
Submitted by Howard Grill Blog
In a past post, I wrote a brief review about the McClamp, a device used to hold a flower or plant steady when doing macro-photography. At that time, I mentioned that I thought the device was superior to the Plamp, a similar ‘gadget’ made by another company. Until the McClamp became […]
Blue Christmas
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
Our family makes a concerted effort to keep Christmas focused on what it really is, a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Too many holiday activities have nothing to do with Jesus at all, so we try nix those events, which helps keep our December calendar manageable. We try not […]

Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
In a comment on Juha’s blog I have announced to fail miserably today. Well, it turned out better than I expected. I photographed this somewhat lively car this morning near our parliament.
