Spider bigger than my bootprint

February 15th, 2012

hairy-spider Following Pitat’s request, I am publishing an old pic from Parque Nacional Huerquehue, Chile taken in 2005. The spider was bigger than my boot-footprint and scared the hell out of me (it was an off season solo hike and I met literally no one the whole day).

Analogue terminated

February 15th, 2012 04720020

It is official, my old analogue 35mm SLR camera died today. Well, it went a while ago, it was just me getting used to that sad idea and finally admitting the Canon EOS 300 is gone now. It was a good mate, reliable, brave and always ready for whatever I wanted it to take and believe me we took it quite a bit around. Regardless of the conditions or circumstances it was recording like a dependable soldier. Our most beautiful wedding shots

Oh Really?

February 14th, 2012

vaclav_klaus_udeluje This post is strictly about Czech rights and wrongs. The very prominent  hundred-million hijacker after being manifold convicted is nowadays getting presidential amnesty for no obvious reason, while the very common citizen (actually a bus driver) is lawfully senteced for 100 days in prison for parody painting some politicians’ billboards, oh, I mentioned his judge is spouse of a politician, didn’t I?

The defenestration time is here. And I am going to buy an extra ticket home to give the crowd a hand.

Buffer

I am sorry, but currently being too lazy to tranlate this whole writing into English.

In short. It goes all along the meanings of our journey and stay here in Boulder. It allowed us to literally cut off our everyday reality and leave our lives and most of related concerns back there in Czech. If our brains have got some kind of a buffer (as among others the digital cameras do) it was the last minute for me to get it after all those busy running years cleared. And yes, if you would wonder, this is not just my personal experience, I am only processing some published scientific data: It’s not only healthy to get some rest for your brain (doing nothing), it also rises your chances to find out something actually wise (if not ingenious :) ).

Bald Eagle

January 3rd, 2012 bald-eagle

It’s been quite a while since our first and regrettably somewhat short meeting. However on the very first day of this year, Mr. Bird was ruling the waters of Boulder Reservoir from literally the same branch of the same tree. Generously waiting for us to come as close as we would dare, he gave us some good fifteen minutes of his noble posing. Afterwards he decided to silently leave us. It took him just a couple of viruous wing-strokes to cross the lake and have some rest being undisturbed by any excited mammals.

Some thoughts to another Czech Architectural Awards proposal

October 25th, 2011 [:cz]Chilská architektura[:en]Chilean architecture

I’m sorry, this is gonna remain in Czech only as I don’t see it to have any big influence even in Czech. The whole awarding thing is just too much according our small pond and involved conditions and minds (all obviously affected with some significant lack of oxygen).

A few pics from the beach

October 21st, 2011 Matěj

Today we’ve spent another great afternoon on the Boulder Reservoir beach. It’s hard not to love these sunny, colourful and fresh autumn days here on the foothills. And the ladies on the pier across the water…unpublishable but very nice footage. :)

Hearters(?)

October 10th, 2011 ari-vatanen

I received a link from my brother today. Mark Higgins drives around the TT track around the Isle of Mann and comments his tiny skid afterwards. Freezing. Quite a few years back Mr. Ari Vatanen on the same island originally came out with this kind of sick driving style. Then maybe Mark was just trying to look cool in someone else’s shoes, huh? :)
