tired
[posted at 17:30 GMT]    

Oh my god, people, I am tired. I was whole day making walls in new two rooms flat. I do not know how do you call it, but you know you have raw wall and you want to make it nice and flat. Yesterday friend of mine was putting electricity there. So as you can see I am still not finished with this rebuilding. That is why I have no time to go and shoot some pictures for the book as I was planning. But I hope in one week it all will be done. After wall are ok, I need to paint them and than put the wooden floor and on one half wall wood. Than it will be half done. But my work will be finished. In one of the room somebody has to come to make two windows on attic and put new heater. Those are tasks I do not dare to do myself.
I have no idea how it is in your country but here in The Netherlands it is often that people do most of the things their selfs. I am not extra handy but I try hard. It goes quite well and at the end I think I will be proud that I made those two rooms for my children myself.

Amazing when you imagine how many people are working in this building with hundreds windows. They all are linked with satellite dish to the rest of the world. I like the sharp winter light. Shot was take in Stockholm, Sweden in January 2003.

Somehow I miss it and I feel sorry that for so long time I didn't put new picture. I am using IMatch for my archives and I have bunch of shots selected there. Shots on which I would like to take better look. I pick up this one now. I did this shot back in 2003 when I was using Voigtlander Bessa R2 with Ultron 35/1.7 lens.
