as in the last two years nina and me went to the polyball in zurich. it was a blast, although we couldn’t dance that much this year ‘cause ninas back ached a bit after an hour of salsa :-)

the image below is one of my polyball-set on flickr . if you’d like to see some more images of us, then you should proceed over to the site of the fotostudio unartig . they made professional shots of all the attendants of the ball and supplied a photo-studio where you could make some selfportraits. the set of our self-portraits starts here and the professional shots start here .

it’s my bike after work this morning, taken with a grain of salt…

hey, ich bin in der zeitung! this born hat in seiner kolumne weblog über das flickr-treffen geschrieben, und - obwohl wir uns am samstag verpasst haben - mich erwähnt [1]. wer den artikel in der bz nicht gesehen hat, kann das hier nachholen.

ich sollte meine local-feeds häufiger lesen, dann hatten wir gestern abend noch ein bisschen mehr gesprächsstoff gehabt…

english: i’m in the newspaper: this born writes a bi-weekly column in the local newspaper. he mentioned me , i’m flattered…

yesterday a bunch of flikreebies/flickrites met here in bern. if you want to take a look at the heap of images we’ve taken, then you should take a look at the tag “chflickrmeetupoct05 ”.

i really like the one stephanie shot while we were having a drink in the tramdepot:

see it in big splendor here .

i’ve officially killed my two moblogs [1]. from now on, all my (seldom) moblogging is going to happen here: https://flickr.com/photos/habi/tags/moblog/ . regarding that, i’ve also uncluttered my sidebar a bit. the latest images-section now shows the five latest images i posted to flickr. on top there’s the latest moblog, then the four latest “normal” images.

i achieved this with a mashup of the code of two flickr-badges . the first one is pulling just the “moblog” tag, the second one is pulling the last 4 images.

the pictures from the alleycat yesterday are already online for your perusal. go and see them here on flickr . if you have any corrections regarding names, send me a note.

update: yves also uploaded some pictures of the alleycat. see his set here.

until some hours ago i believed that maybe i made the first ever underwater panorama photograph, while on the philippines. a simple google search proved me wrong, there is already much more impressive work available online (see here , for the first ever published underwater panorama [1]). nonetheless i’m gonna tell you the story of the panorama of my alma jane shot in this post.

while we resurfaced from the alma jane i shot 7 images of the wreck and then tried to reconnect them later on with the excellent hugin for osx . as i mentioned before i started to use makecubic from apple to convert the .tiff-files from hugin to quicktime vr .mov files which are sometimes more pleasant to view.

i didn’t shoot any pictures this week, so i’m picking another one from our holidays on the philippines. although the nudibranch is not in focus i quite like the image below, mostly because of its vibrant colors. you can see some more images from our holidays in the pictures section or on flickr (which is better for the panoramas, ‘cause you can see them in a bigger size…).

in den bergen ist freiheit lancierte einen bergfotowettbewerb (um irgendein monopol zu brechen [1]). jetzt kann bis nächsten samstag (8.10.) abgestimmt werden, damit dann ein foto das schönste ist.

gute freunde werden mein foto erkennen, es hatte die ehre, als “es guets 2005”-karte verschickt zu werden [2].

also stimmt ab, es hat viele schöne fotos drunter (hier alle in gross.). am schönsten find ich persönlich patricks eigenes bild (nummer 1, das mit der tollen reflektion.)

you can see them here .

if you’d like to see more messengers messing around, then you can see mathieus images (from lausanne) or some more in the images-section of fahrradkurier.ch .

i’m still struggling with a panorama around the sharp turn of the uphill-sprint (the one here ). maybe my g4 has not enough ram to handle a panorama consisting of 15 5 mpixel images. i’m trying it soon with resized images and keep you updated.
