bringing some old pics to life

i…want…to go!
My feet are itchy and I don’t know whether it’s because of what I keep hearing from my sister (all the invitations to the most extraordinary journeys and travels she gets…) or because a group of my friends is away in the Philippines with the Light the Way Missions, or because I simply miss the stuff… trains at night, foreign languages, dirty feet, the sun, the water, the backpack and and this wonderfully different way in which time flows while you’re on the move…

red chested little fella
The other day (last Tuesday to be exact), after a more-less wasted morning and early afternoon, I decided to pull myself together and finally do something. I went for a walk. I wanted to take some photos in the cathedral (it was sunny as I was leaving the home), but by the time I got there the sky was tightly covered with clouds and the inside of the cathedral looked rather gloomy. I decided that instead, I will go to the cathedral’s garden and -maybe- take some photos of birds. And so I did. And to my surprise and joy, the little, fat robin-fella turned up! The most sociable little bird I’ve ever met. This Tuesday encounter wasn’t our first one, but it was the first one whilst I had my camera with me, too. It was such good fun! He would sit in one place and sit there until i take the photo (it wasn’t that he would run away at the sound of the shutter though) and then fly over to another spot, maybe 1 meter away and sit there until i take another photo… and so on. Quite amazing. He also started singing quietly at some point… Made my day (:

our lovely colourful little display (:
The goal was to scan all individual pictures but I was so, soooo tired today, that i gave up in the end.
YAWN!
