Hi,

I recently discovered Flickr, and decided to use that site as platform for my photo's. This is because I believe Flickr has more to offer to me as photographer than deviantART. For the time being, Flickr still has lees of my photo ś than deviantART though.

For those interested, this is my flickr photostream: www.flickr.com/photos/dirkhein…

Last Saturday I finally got the chance to play with my new Tamron AF 70-300mm telelens. It's a great piece of equipment and I am looking forward to use it. So far it looks like a good lens.

School is now finally coming to its end. This week I officially still have school, but so far I only had to go there last Monday to bring back some books, which took 10 minutes. Tomorrow I'll head for school to get my rapport and then the holidays officially start.

So far it looks like I have nothing planned for the majority of the 7 weeks off I'll have, so I will probably go on a few wander-trips around my home to take some pictures. I'll need to force myself to do something, or I'll probably hang bored behind my laptop all of my holiday-time

Right now I'm a bit pissed off that I discovered that I can set the ISO value of my camera manually. Just when I come back from holidays, where I was annoyed by my dark pictures and pieces of scenery which didn't get on the pictures well enough...

A poem I read somewhere at a forum, I like it very much:

I know when I've been beaten
And when the end is near
I know when I have nothing left
And defeat is almost here

But still I keep on fighting
I refuse to show my pain
You can hit me, you can hurt me
But I’ll get back up again

I won’t go down so easy
On my pride I have to hold
The losers aren't remembered
The winners take the gold

I don't care if you're watching
Or there’s no one else to see
I only care about myself
Achieving victory
