Here are three quick shots I took off Robin shortly after his Communion. All dressed up for the occasion in his own style. The proof that rock and roll is still alive.
(Mirror)Less is More? FUJIFILM X100S
I love my Canon gear and will not depart from it anytime soon. But I was looking for something that would be less heavy to carry around, could still provide excellent image quality and would offer more than just a simple point and shoot camera.
For a while I already had my eye set on the FUJIFILM X100 and was interested in getting one. Although it had its quirks, most people seemed to love this little camera. Not only the camera itself was praised but also Fuji’s involvement. Firmware updates kept on coming to improve the camera. Then the X100S came out and this camera had even better reviews. Reading those reviews, I knew this was the camera I wanted to add to my collection.
Crossing the Bridge (Twice!)
Unfortunately I had to fly back home last Sunday. But because we wanted to show the little one to the family in Budapest and have a night out in town we arrived in Budapest on Saturday already.
With family members around to watch Iván we could escape for a couple of hours and enjoy the buzz of a Saturday night in Budapest.
After having dinner we went for a short walk by crossing the river Danube using the Széchenyi Chain Bridge (one of Budapests landmarks).
Haarlem (Yes, With Double A)
Haarlem is a city in the Netherlands and capital of the province North Holland. Thanks to Peter Stuyvesant it’s also known as a neighborhood in New York City (Harlem, Manhattan). 🙂
Haarlem had been on the list of cities to visit for quite a while now. Adri had been there already, I hadn’t. I definitely wanted to see the city once and Adri wanted to go back to have another look. We decided it was a good day to put this plan into action last Saturday. Not really having been into Harlem, NYC we at least should make it to Haarlem, North Holland. 🙂
We loaded the stroller into the car (including diapers, baby formula and of course the little one himself), grabbed the X100S and drove to Haarlem.
Military History Day, Leiden
It felt like we ended up in a war zone. Or a movie set. 🙂
We didn’t know the Military History Day was held that day (29th of March). But we discoverd soon enough. Or actually we did after using Google. 🙂
Photos were taking with the FUJIFILM X100S. Still in the process of getting used to this camera.
Iván David
Iván has joined us February 6th. Life has been somewhat crazy since then. And although we shared some pictures on Facebook already, I didn’t have time yet to write about our little boy on this blog.
Almost two months have passed and we’re still alive! 🙂 Me and Adri managed to survive the first few weeks as fresh parents!
Going Dutch (Sort of Anyway)
In October we had the pleasure to have some friends over from Germany for a couple of days. We always like to show our guests around the area a little and do a short round of sightseeing whenever we get the chance.
