Summer flashback

I just realized it's been months since I uploaded photos to my SmugMug photo site, and though: "I'll write a blog post or two next week-end".

Well, week-ends they come and they go, and I have totally forgotten to post any of my photos here. Truth be told, I've been quite busy at work writing two chapters to an upcoming book on Lync administration, and writing two presentation held for an international audience at Norwegian Lync Day and TechEd 2014.

This was all done after Jr's bedtime, and have left me no time for photo-shoots or blogging. But that's all been dealt with, and I am now looking at a "quiet" month, leading up to Christmas. Here are a couple of images from our vacation in Portugal this summer. My mom has an apartment in Tavira, and it's a great place to spend some lazy days.

One of my many favorite things as a photographer, is to walk in empty streets and try to see things I normally wouldn't notice. Take these flower arrangements as an example. I know I would have walked right past them had I not been look for something to shoot. I really fun and creative way to reuse old tires :)


And for last, a sunset view of the old Tavira bridge. I really liked the way the sun was reflected in the water, and also how the sun created flare in the end result (although that wasn't planned)
