Fogs and blogs

Someone decided it would be a great idea if we took photos at sunrise in Krakow (looking at you @llfarms) and since that is not too long after the time we would generally head back to the AirBnB, I thought why not. I knew it would be very foggy as it had been the entire time we were there and it was beautiful through the streets of the Jewish quarter. This time though, we decided to walk along the river to see what we could see.

I love shooting in fog as it gives a shroud of mystery and eeriness to the images. The other thing it does is balloons the light effects and in so doing, creates very soft fades between light points. It isn't for everyone though and the cold isn't the most pleasant experience but being from Finland, it was summery for me.

These shots are cropped down to 16:9 but are otherwise unprocessed so far because as you know by now, my PC is in the office / babyroom and is inaccessible. One day, one day we will have a place that has enough room for a tiny little office. I don't need much, just a corner tucked away somewhere that is quiet and usable 24/7.

Speaking of 24/7, one thing that I have got to be stricter with is my sleeping schedule. It is time that I start getting my health in some kind of order and I am going to try posting more during the day instead of staying up until 4 am. I was surprised in Poland though that I held up so well considering the intense schedule and liquid diet.

Over the next few weeks I am hoping to throw some ideas out into the community that are mostly for discussion purposes. Some of them are more technical perhaps than others but since it is me, not too technical. I think it is time that I also break some of my own codes and even though I won't give advice, perhaps some recommendations for users will be presented. I will try to justify my positions though and it is always up to the individual to take or leave it.

What I am also going to do is throw in some more photography posts or fun posts that are shorter and faster to do. I like creating content but I find that unless I am willing to really cut down on the words, very few people are going to be able to read them. Don't worry, I am going to keep trying to add something of value in each. What I did learn at SteemFest is that voices are really worth something, it just might not be money.

Voiced ideas have value and I plan on throwing as many into the pool as possible so that people can use them as they see fit. In my opinion, to have a great idea takes many lesser ideas but because we judge people with bad ideas harshly, we ourselves fear putting anything forward unless it is likely to be accepted. That limits our range of ideas to the group averages for acceptance.

So, let's see what comes from it but I think it is time for some more changes in approach and see what feedback arrives. Who knows, perhaps it will stay the same but I hope not, I need the rest. ;)
