For some reason I never got around to posting a few pictures of some pretty nice street art in Tel Aviv, that I spotted (pretty hard not to ;) ) during the Israel-tour with the Cornerstone gospel choir last fall. But, better late than never – here we go :)

Two years ago I was looking at writing a Linux kernel driver with a real-time 10ms loop for a new x86-based CPU card at work. After a bit of back and forth (and some much-needed stress-testing) I ended up with an implementation that worked pretty well, and more or less guaranteed that our 10ms loop would also run with the specified period.
Now I’ve spent the last months working on a new CPU card, and thought that I’d better run the old stress-tests on it also, to make sure that we still have the real-time performance that we’re expecting.
Leave a CommentWith summer being well underway here in Denmark (according to the calendar at least – the weather still has a bit of catching up to do…), I thought I’d better have a look at my backlog of spring images. Lots of spring-ishness coming up:

Last week I had to spend a few days in Texas for work – and managed to put in a weekend in New York on my way back. First time I’ve been to the States, and I did have a great time – although my legs were getting a bit tired after spending more than two days sightseeing a fraction of the stuff that NYC has to offer. The High Line, Times Square, Central Park, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Brooklyn Bridge, the Top of The Rock, jazz at Lincoln Center and a quick peek into B&H Photo were just…
Leave a CommentDecember 2014 in Denmark was gray and wet. But even so, Christmas did of course arrive – and surprised me quite a bit when I woke on the 25th, and saw that it had brought with it cold weather and even snow! That of course made for some much more interesting stuff to shoot – some of the results can be seen here…

Apart from photography, one of the other things I do in my spare time is to sing in a gospel choir in Odense – called Cornerstone. We’ve been talking about going on a tour for a few years, but this autumn we finally made it happen. That meant that I got to spend almost 9 days doing concerts, sightseeing and generally just having a great time in Israel with some awesome people – I can’t really think of a better way to spend the autumn holiday :) And of course I brought along my camera also – first batch of…

I’m currently enjoying my (rather short) summer holiday, and even got to spend some quality-time with my camera and my new tripod. Might add a few extra photos later on too.

I’ve just come back from a trip to Tanzania, where I, together with 7 others (and a lot of guides and porters), climbed up Kilimanjaro. An absolutely fantastic experience that I’d not want to be without – and at the same time something that I’ve no interest in doing again – at least not within the next couple of years ;) It was incredibly exhausting – especially the last trek to the summit – and I didn’t get to take quite as many pictures as I’d assumed I would. Mainly because a DSLR is a bit cumbersome to get out…
2 CommentsMy trusty Nikon D5000 has been with me for over 4 years, and has done well. But – in preparation for a coming holiday, I decided now was the time for an upgrade. Enter, Nikon D7100. A fantastic piece of hardware, and obviously in a different class than the D5x00 series cameras. It has buttons for everything, and it doesn’t feel artificially limited like it’s smaller siblings sometimes do (lacking bracketing, and similar features) – and the auto-iso feature is working quite well too. I’ve not had much time to shoot with it yet, but have managed a few decent…
