Yes I'm still alive. I haven't posted in a long while about my life but there is not much to tell. I've been working like allways and when I'm home and done with the things that "have" to be done there's very little enegie left. So I sit in front of the computer and try to keep my eyes open long enough to read posts and make an icon for challenges I've entered while my energielevels where still high.
I've also done my "Sinterklaas" (that is a Dutch thing en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas ) shopping and Aranka's 18th birthday present is also bought.
But yesterday I went to Utrecht to do some more shopping and while I was waiting for the bus I talked to some people that where going to ZoomExperience which is a in Dutch Beurs but translates as market in English and is all about camera's and photography. I went there instead and had a great time. I finally bought the camera backpack I wanted at such a great price. In my local shop it costed 125 Euro's and the lowest price I found on the internet was 70 Euro's and I got mine yesterday for 49 Euro's YAAAYYYY!!!!! There where workshop's and models and cars you could take pictures off to learn how to do it and there was a booth by Canon where you could have one picture printed. I took one off the pictures I made and had it printed in postersize. Since I bough my camera I hadn't done that so I was curious how it would turn out. It turned out great, even people standing behind me told me so and they had like lenses 30 or more cm long. So very pleased with myself on the outcome of that.
This is the picture above I had printed (minus the text and yellow blob)
