Have you taken 1218 photos?

I like to take photos now and then. I upload a few of them to my flickr account. This week I sent a link to my flickr account to a colleague. The first thing she said was

-”Have you taken 1218 photos!”

I answered that I like to take photos, I sure do. I take photos of things I like. It can be architecture, people, our cat (!) and food. I have my camera with me from time to time but not always. I have my flickr account where I upload a few of my photos and also a photo blog. The blog fetches the photos from the flickr account so I don’t have to double post my images. Well, anyway. My colleague liked my photos. She said that she would look through them, I wonder if she have the time to look through them all…

Psst. The 1218 photos is only 10.4% of 11746 photos in my Aperture library.

Have you met Creepy Girl?

Creepy girl works in Japan as a secretary. Mostly she helps out with daily work at Onkyo limited. She also has great love for following the mouse pointer on the screen. Check out the great work of Cubocc. It’s really amazing how far 3D, and virtual reality has come.
