Boston Globe: the Big Picture

One of my favorite blogs/newssite is the Boston Globe’s the Big Picture.

With its vibrant oversized photographs and minimalist design, the Boston Globe’s The Big Picture weblog launched on June 1 to instant global acclaim. It’s designed, programmed, and written by Alan Taylor, an old-school web programmer and blogger, in his spare time while working on community features at Boston.com.

Read the interview with Alan Taylor, creator of the Big Picture. Pretty neat stuff…

Mestreech

I was able to pull some old images from one of my websites through the Internet Archive. Finally some memories back. Having your database and hard drive crashed in the digital age is just a disaster. Look for the Maastricht album on my photography page.

Next step is scanning most of my hard copy pictures (oh yeah, old skool photography) and upload them here. Stay tuned…

San Francisco weekend

Last weekend A. and me went to the City to celebrate my birthday. We stayed at hotel Fusion in downtown San Francisco. The thing I love about the City s that you will discover new things every time you visit. As A. always says: Never a Dull Moment, and it’s true. Even though the weather wasn’t cooperating well we still had a great time. Yesterday I decided to put my photo page up again. I only uploaded 13 pictures since I only want to show my quality pictures (cough, cough). Let me know what you think!

Another reason for putting up the gallery page is that I want to pick up the camera more often. With the recent discovery of Vimeo it got me inspired to take more pictures. Eventually I want to start making videos but that’s something for the future.
