I was curious which photo might show up if I sort my Catalogue by my rating. Yet there are still some unprocessed folders.
But .. regarding my rating, I took my best photo close to the end of the year! Due to many reasons I didn't take as many photos this year as usual. But this one really resonate…

It does the download from phone or camera great. showfoto is most of the basic tools but setup generally for …

Everyone in the Netherlands knows the Wadden Sea, and we love it. Its tidal flats attract millions of birds, and tourists too.
But I can't remember any national politician drawing attention to the fact that we stand to lose those tidal flats to sea level rise, starting mid-century, due to climate change. Don't they know or don't they care?

People complain about the roads but don't do anything about it... well, some of us do.
I've been avoiding these two potholes on my ride home for weeks now, got fed up, finally stopped to report them to the city last week and they just got filled...
In four days. The city street crew filled them in less than a week. Hell Yeah.
(The first photo is what I submitted, second is from the road crew after repairs.)
The latest addition to the fleet: the Modular Galactic Spaceship. It can be split into three sections and has a replicator that makes great pizza.

Velella velella is the by-the-wind sailor, a type of floating colonial siphonophore, almost like a tiny version of portuguese man-of-war. It is often found in large numbers on beaches because they have a "sail" set at 45° either to the left or right. As a result, they can sail differently depending on wind direction. It is thought both forms are mixed m…
I have harvested the white elm oyster mushrooms that I am growing in the upstairs bathroom from a kit.
They didn't look quite ready but it seemed like growth had stalled. I gave one a nibble and it was sour, so it might have been getting bacterial in there. Not going to eat this lot.

This kind of literalism isn’t particularly my taste - BUT got to hand it to this guy for doing some seriously dedicated work using just scrap metal. 🤌 His name is Zoltšn Rónaszéki and he lives and works in a tiny village in Hungary. I couldn’t photograph the most impressive piece as he hadn’t unveiled it yet.
(And I really *didn’t* want to sit in King Kong’s hand, but…village photo cheese gotta cheese.)

It's not all roses and sunshine. Although Brand makes quite decent beers, this Winter Bock (ABV 7.5) was a bit underwhelming. A bit flat, sweet, imho they missed the target here.

Why SUV when you can LSV? (Low Speed Vehicles)
25mph max car! street legal in San Francisco.
Can drive on almost all roads in the city.
This one is not that great, imho (but try it at gocar). I want to see more LSVs. Amsterdam has many, and many types.
all roads w/ 35mph limits or less are ok, almost all roads in SF. Here are all limits on all roads in SF:
One more photo stop that we did after quite a rain pour in the #schwarzwald.
We came up this path when I turned around and saw the sun beams through the canopy. At first I was really stunned to be honest as I hardly *ever* see such scenes!
Strangely I took ways less photos than might have been appropriate, but those two I found worth sharing.

My brother has a bunch of old family photos. He’s taken pics of some of them and used photoshop’s AI nano banana pro on them.
This is my paternal great-grandmother. Name and dates unknown, but definitely sometime in the 18th century. I’ll add a name and dates if/when my brother sends them.
