365-2020 – Rest in Peace Maria Buta

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about walking my mother-in-law to the final resting place to be with God – rest in peace Maria Buta. Less than 5 months ago, we said Adio to Ioan Buta her husband so to say we are devastated is an understatement. Thank you all for coming and for being next to us on these difficult moments. The sun and the birds even came out to say goodbye. FREE Digital Image Hungry for more beautiful images? Check out “A photo a day challenge 2020” gallery and download for […]

361-2020 – Snowy Bob the Snowman

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about the “Snowy Bob” the snowman ⛄️. When I asked my daughter what’s the snowman’s name she quickly responded: “Snowy Bob”. We used pebble for eyes, carrot for nose, two parsnips for mouth and two brooms for hands. Let’s hope tomorrow will be able to make a bigger snowman ⛄️. In this image the snow appears orange, because the street lights contain vapour of sodium and cast a orange hue in the presence of electricity. Below is the same image in which I used the eye […]

352-2020 – Glorious Morning Sunshine

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is an image of Doftana Valley near Bradet in the glorious morning sunshine. -3 degrees Celsius in Bradet this morning, but it feels epic. My hands were frozen on the drone’s remote control, and for the first time in a while I took my pictures and returned the drone safely home before the low battery warning message kicked in. Happy to see my mother-in-law walking again. For the last few days she couldn’t even get off the bed. She’s got Stage 4 cirrhosis (end stage liver disease), which […]

351-2020 – Shooting for the Stars

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is all about shooting for the stars. This image was shot with Canon PowerShot G16 with its “Stars” preset as a JPEG image. Normally, I would wirelessly transfer the images to my iPhone but for some unknown reason I couldn’t, so I had to take the card out, pop it into my laptop, transfer the images to the cloud folder, from where I could access them, pick my favourite, edit it with Lightroom Mobile app and export it in two “flavours”, one small resolution – for this […]

350-2020 – Takeaway Hep-lock

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about the hep-lock the nurse forgot in my mother-in-law’s arm after the procedure. This is not the first time when my mother-in-law is sent home with the hep-lock in her arm. I don’t know if this is a standard procedure in the Romanian hospitals or “can’t be bothered” attitude toward the patient? FREE Digital Image Hungry for more beautiful images?

347-2020 – Brown Boots

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about my new brown boots from Primark. These boots only cost £20 and look like the ones made of leather, but at this price, it’s very unlikely. Another clue is the lack of labels which mention the materials used during production. If will last me this winter, I am a happy chap. Like, comment & share!
