Fly-by.

Or how to be caught out with the wrong lens on. This was a manual focus 2x macro lens...

Buzzards (I presume) seen from my balcony. The local newspaper in Best had just printed an article that they were spotted in town and they were not wrong. I think I saw four flying together over my flat, I don't know whether that's normal behaviour.

Glad it's winter and there are no insects about, testing out my macro lens.

Canon R10 with Laowa 65mm F2.8, either with Godox speedlite flash off-camera or the light of my Samsung phone when I had already put the speedlite away.

Don't handhold macro shots they say. Don't use the built-in flash and don't use maximum aperture. They are probably right.

(This is nowhere near the maximum magnification btw)

Closeup of a croissant. Because it's a handheld macro shot with built-in flash and maximum aperture, it's not a very good photo. Particularly the depth of field is very shallow.

New toy: a Laowa 2x macro lens. Comes very favourably out of reviews, also for non-macro distances. It's the crop sensor advantage that this is small-ish and cheap-ish, while still being a super-sharp f/2.8 apochromatic lens. Now I have to learn to manually focus, and to use (flash) lighting.
#Laowa #Macro
Phone photo of a mirrorless camera, Canon R10. What's new is the Laowa 65mm F2.8 2x Macro lens mounted on it. The lens is small-ish because it is made for crop sensor cameras like the R10.

I went to the Christmas market in Maastricht today. It was nice and cold and crowded. It gets dark quickly this close to midwinter.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice with Jenna Ortega and The Pod Generation with Emilia Clarke arrived on blu-ray!

The German release of the latter has an alternative title Baby To Go, which isn't even in German. In my own country hardly any discs are released anymore, so we have to make do with these German releases.

Blu-rays that have just arrived: The Pod Generation (as Baby To Go) with Emilia Clarke and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (in 4k) with Jenna Ortega, the latter not pictured on the cover. Both are the German releases and photographed before unwrapping.

I also love how this video is shot, with the Corina on the right doing backing vocals for the Corina on the left.

More of Glow in Best, with the Windmill, the cemetery and eyes at the train station. The main Glow festival is of course in Eindhoven.
#Glow2024
The windmill illuminated with playful colours, as part of the Glow festival.
In the dark, people walk over a footpath past the cemetery, itself hidden behind a green hedge. As part of the Glow festival the hedge lights up in bright changing colours and sound can be heard coming from that side. Or maybe it's not Glow, but the cemetery's ghosts acting up.
Two large glowing eyeballs for Glow, seen in context of the traditional illuminated tree art work.

More of the church and chapel.

The top of the church tower can be seen between leaves of a tree and the rest of the church, the tower colourfully illuminated for the Glow festival.

Saint Odulphus, or his statue, stands guard in front of the church which is brightly illuminated with many colours for the Glow festival. The statue catches some of the light. The photograph looks steeply up, the wide angle exaggerating its prominence.

For the second one of these two I needed the other lens (building too big, etc).

This installation was maybe the best. High above the ground a sphere made out of moving mirrors was illuminated by World War 2 search lights. It was incredibly bright. It was also impossible (for me) to photograph it in any way close to how it appeared to the eye.
A sphere of moving mirrors hangs above the city and is illuminated by World War 2 search lights. The reflections were very bright and ever changing. The effect was very scifi like. The photo is exposed such that you can see the mirrors, to the eye it was like a bright star just above the city.

I tried to take some photos with my Canon EOS R10, with the RF 50mm 1.8 lens, some with the RF 28mm 2.8.

The ground is also illuminated while people are watching another light show. Only people's feet are shown, the ground has abstract shapes projected and drawn on it.

Made it to the start of the Eindhoven City Run (5km, this year relegated to the Saturday and not on the actual Marathon day). Also made it to the finish, but I was too tired to take another photo. My time was 34:29, not the slowest ever despite having to hold back due to an injury (the uphill bits were difficult for more than the normal reasons). Made it back home too and added to my collection.

I'd wish they had changing facilities near the finish line, or at all since on Saturday nothing is available. It was a long cold walk back in my t-shirt... Sitting here now trying to warm back up.

Most rains may have been a while ago, but some paths are still flooded.

A low sun shines through two trunks of a tree, creating a sun star. Only the leaves of a few young twigs coming out of the ground, are illuminated while most else is in the shadows, suggesting the sun star is shining only for them.
A tree's root misses the ground when it comes down a small hill. Several offshoots of the root go straight down into the ground, suggesting the tree has made a fence.

Happy Birthday, Jenna Ortega!

She may be busy filming Wednesday season two in Ireland, but today it is also her 22nd birthday and I feel like celebrating it with a #BirthweekRewatch. A week because a Friday doesn't give enough time to rewatch all I want to see. She made so many great things!

I saw Miller's Girl twice in the cinema, because I liked it so much. Now from the comfort of my own blu-ray player.

Photo of the blu-ray of Miller's Girl. The cover shows Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman as their characters, separated by the film's title.

It feels like yesterday but last year Mia Shanks impressed me with her first single Yesterday. Today, on her birthday, she announces her second single The Sound Of It. I'm really excited. We'll know the sound of it on 27 September.

So if you tell the Canon EOS R10 auto-focus system to focus on Saturn it's like, ok, I've got it.

Admittedly, it's very vague and it's a tiny crop from the whole photo, it being barely a spec of light, but the photo is taken with a budget camera with a budget lens and it is Saturn and the auto-focus did acquire focus. No telescope involved.

I like this! Promotion of the film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (in cinema 6 September), posting Astrid's three moods:


  • cozy spooky
  • hauntingly spooky
  • otherworldly spooky

Rather than muting the accounts, Mastodon has the option (in the settings for the list) to not have the posts show up in your normal home timeline. You still need to follow the accounts though. Apologies if this was already meant with the term 'mute'.
