Duplo's blog

- Just another blog on the internet -

Laxity?

, , , , ,

Hi All,

Well the Duplo world updates are les frequent and I am not as active in the OC lately.
This is however in no way related to the title, the title will explain itself towards the end of this post.
The lack of updates is related to work. I have an at times massive workload and the last few months have indeed been governed by my workload.

This week I attended a 3 day management workshop, I were indeed some long days, but the discussions were good as were the conclusions that could be drawn, if I read things right, then work will be more interesting than ever in the time to come:)

We have had another visit from the "Føhn" storm and the latest pictures in the "Greenlandic Winter Pictures" album clearly shows how big an impact these visits has on the winter landscape. It is devastating:(

But before any of you starts talking about global warming I might ad that it is a quite normal phenomenon along the Greenlandic west coast.

This Saturday I took Miss Duplo for dinner at what I consider the best restaurant in Nuuk. It is called "Gertrud Rask Spisehus" (This link is in Danish only, I was unable to find any English version of it) and is among the most interesting restaurants anywhere in my opinion. After that we went to the movies and watched a movie called "Blood Diamond", It was good actually and kind of an eye opener, it does not exactly present any new information, but I will surely give it a though next time I am out buying a shiny little stoney thingy for miss Duplo.

I have set up a new album too. It is called "Air Transportation". It will house pictures somehow related to Air Transportation and travel, being either Air Crafts, Helicopters, airport pictures and more., here is an all new picture from that album:


Next week or well Wednesday to be exact I am off for my next travel, this time to Qaqortoq in Southern Greenland. A place I indeed am looking forward to see. The target is business, but I got the camera gear all packed, why I most certainly would expect to be able to present pictures both from Qaqortoq and new additions to the newly established Gallery called "Air Transportation".

I have yet to repeat my thanks to all of you, for the massive attention my pictures has gotten, I did by accidence notice the hit counter on one of my pictures and I was shocked.
This Picture has been visited 2177 times:eyes:
This Picture has been viewed 1231 times:eyes:
This Picture has been visited 1106 times:eyes:
So thank you soo much for rating and liking my pictures, I really do greatly appreciate that.

Well Ok I know, I have yet to explain the title of this post, why Laxity and why followed by a question mark? Well we are going a little while back, where I engaged in Shooting pictures for a Global Warming Project that are going to get published sometime in the future and "Laxity?" is the title of my latest picture for that project. So here you go, the picture called "Laxity?"

That’s all for now.

Do take good care you all:)

congratulations on the hits!

And I know what you mean about massive workloads. Gah. Shouldn't work just stop completely when you're away? Hrumph.

ANyway, glad you're posting again bigsmile

I understand why your photos get that much attention. I´d be surprised if they didn´t.

About heavy workloads: I think that hard work is very overrated. Even though ot can be very interesting smile

HI HUngry one:)
Thank you.
It would definitely be a nice touch if it did.... Unfortunately it seems to speed up when you are not there to watch it...

I am thrilled to be back, it were great reading up and to post again for a few hours yesterday night:D

HI Allan,
Thank you:) I really appreciate it.

well I agree with you completely... hard work is highly overrated.
As much as I love what I do, I hate the heavy workloads that comes with the job.
Unfortunately I love my job and I have to be passionate about what I do... now where is that full time paid half time job, doing what I do today:D:D

Thanks again.

Ohh Hungy,

You must have been very tired, not picking that one up:D:D

I will chase the menu, to make sure I get the details right, but it were called a "Princess Menu" kind of says it all:)

ALLY G.ALLY_G Wednesday, February 7, 2007 6:20:52 AM

Wow, a Princess Menu, that sounds already very majestic. chef

Some nice photos in you new album "Air Transportation". The red coloured airplanes are a wonderful contrast to the white sceneries. up

HI Elke,


Thanks you:)

It is in the honour of HRH Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, so majestic no, but definitely royal:D

That is one thing I like about our Air crafts... the colour and how it look in contrast to our surroundings:up:
