My photo site (built on Hugo) was taking a lot to deploy after I added all the older content, as the pipeline was always deploying the entire site. Finally took time to look at it, and only upload the changes. I guess I got a slight improvement.

Como gostava de poder ver isto em pleno Planalto Mirandês! Nos próximos dias vai estar nesse cantinho de Portugal, para quem estiver por perto.

I love postcards! I try to send them as often as possible when I travel. I love receiving them at home ! This one made it all the way from Albania.

Postcard with a photo of a tall clock tower stands between two buildings with trees casting shadows on their walls.

Dave In Portugal has a neat video about the culture shock of his four years living in Portugal, but cherry on top of it has to be this Quim Barreiros moment! A scenic village view is overlaid with the quote: I put the car in, take the car out whenever I want. what a tight little garage what a sweet woman.

I’ve lost track the amount of times I’m going to open the app formerly known as Twitter and end up opening Fujifilm’s app. At least I use Twitter less and less often.

Two app icons featuring stylized X logos, with the left labeled "X" and the right labeled "XApp" under "FUJIFILM".

I was watching a video of new a camera (the new Hassie l, but that’s irrelevant) and mentioned something almost as a complain: these new models bring less and less new features. Well, that’s where we are right now, with the current release cycles, more of these incremental changes.

Nowadays you walk a lot in airports, or run, between gates. One of the many reasons I hate flying nowadays…

In a time where optimism with things around the world is at an all-time low, at least for me, having a documentary on your flight called “A optimist’s guide to the world” might be a good omen.

I have a new site! I explain it more in the post, but I really hit a wall with the old one. Hope this one works better!

Now I must rest, I have a flight early in the morning, but do take a look!

So, the Fuji X-E5 is out, not planning to buy one, but as an owner of both a X-E2 and X-E3, and still in use, this is a series that holds a sweet spot in my heart. Only later can check the reviews, but anyone has thoughts on it? Is the film dial too gimmicky?
