Hi All,

well Duploworld has been turbocharged lately and it seems to be holding its pace.
It has become hard to keep up, but so far I am able to:)

The last few day has gone by getting the plans screwed as usual, We are now leaving for Copenhagen already on monday.. got a few meetings in Copenhagen thrown in on top of my planning, which means I have to clear all urgent tasks already by tomorrow and not by Wednesday as planned... well I was wondering what to do this weekend anyway:whistle:

The major upside is that I get a little longer at home and Miss Duplo will be with me this time:yes:

Well in lack of anything better I have decided to show you a bit more of the photo gear I have around:
My most recent buy, a flashgun (Pentax AF540FGZ, thought it might come in handy around Christmas,
Here it is mounted on my primary body (the Pentax K10D) along with my SIgma 17-70EX:

A bulky and heavy package (approx 2 kg in total) you might say, but it handles soo sweet:D

Well Christmas is just around the corner, why I have launched a Christmas album, so far it is a one picture album, but more will come:)
That is all for now... So with this picture I wish you a marry merry Christmas:)

Take care all:)

Thomas

Finally an updateLast update before Christmas:)

Do have a happy Christmas, Thomas - with family, food, presents and whatever goes along with it.

Btw - I like your xmas photo - which because of the reflection almost becomes a self-portrait smile

Your Pentax is what my camera wants to be when it grows up - but it needs to spend a lot of time in the gym to get there! smile

Travelling for work is not exactly a pleasure - but you're "in the business" so you know what to expect!

I always thought that Christmas on North region would be more nice! Maybe cos the snow!!!

and the stories we hear about Santa...

smile

Nice camera you got! Do a good job with it! up

hugs Thomas!

Thomas Bojer EltorpDuplo Friday, December 15, 2006 3:35:10 PM

I will be around in OC until Christmas though, just wanted to remind you all (actually my self as well) that it is almost Christmas:)

Thomas Bojer EltorpDuplo Friday, December 15, 2006 3:40:43 PM

HI Allan,
Thanks for the greetings and the compliments:)

I thought it made for a nice personal touch to an otherwise pretty traditional picture:)

Back in DK monday evening, I am soo much looking forward to this christmas with family, presents and all:)

Thomas Bojer EltorpDuplo Friday, December 15, 2006 3:41:13 PM

Thanks for the Greetings Waka:)

Thomas Bojer EltorpDuplo Friday, December 15, 2006 3:43:07 PM

Well Yooper, better get him a prescription for the gym then;)

Thanks for understanding the difference between the two types of travel:)

Thomas Bojer EltorpDuplo Friday, December 15, 2006 3:47:21 PM

HI Bea,

Well i would someday love to have my entire family here for Christmas, but I do not think it is entirely possible, It would be way too pricey to do that.

I love the Danish way of celebrating Christmas, This particular way to spend time with the family is something I value a lot.

I hope you one day gets the chance to experience Christmas in the North.

I will do my best to put it to use:D

Hugs to you too and do take care:)
