No bore at all, you say? Well fine, if you insist. Hear ye, hear ye, I’m proud to announce that The World According To My Camera ranked first (tie with another entry) in the Macroday challenge themed “Photography” (as in the theme of the competing photos being that of photography itself), with the entry Vintage, which some of you folks might remember… <enter the cricket sound>… Either way, screwdrivers all ’round!

…brag mode off…

Today’s photo-of-the-week is an abstract of the Berlin Hauptbahnhof, which proved to be a real pain in the neck, literally, from all the staring up and left and right and over the shoulder, all the while going “ooh… aah…”.

In other news, I’ve been plotting and scheming lately around this idea that I’m hoping to turn into a new photo series (a bit more special than the others, though), which should be oodles of fun to work on, if all goes well. I’ll have to see if I can manage to pull it off. Cheers!

Don’t worry your pretty heads, there will be photos to come. Just not this week, since *someone* was kind enough to snatch my card reader without asking, and I can’t very well go looking for my data cable, for obvious reasons (indeed, sheer laziness).

Moving on, this week’s photo-of-the-week came to be as a result of a hellishly long train ride and a short-lived laptop battery. Enjoy…

I’m amazed at how much of a difference in state of mind just one week can make, if spent in complete R&R. Anyway, I’m also back with a few new goodies. Here’s this week’s, titled Railroad Blues:

Seeing how the arithmetic of one car, five people, and luggage amounting to the approximate volume of one small apartment resulted in *someone* drawing the short straw and taking the train (obviously, departing at 5 AM), one would be inclined to approve of the “Blues” bit in the title. Good thing I love trains, though. And at least I have a pretty sunrise to show for it.
