I took this one after work today. From what I heard from the glider pilots the wind was incredibly good today.
Pacific Beach
This spot is within a five minute walk from my current apartment. I just can't stop appreciating this.
Photo Flow - iPhone App Review
I found something really neat for all you picture takers who use iPhones and iPods. Actually it wasn't really hard to find it, as the author of the software asked me to use some of my images for an example slide show. So yes, I didn't find the app, the app actually found me.
So I tried this today, and I must say I'm really hooked. From a user experience point-of-view this app is super smooth and lets you create cool slide shows in no time. At the same time, the degree of freedom given to you as a user is pretty high. You can edit the duration of each image by moving a slider and choose fading effects from a drop-down box. I wish more apps could be so straight forward and yet powerful.
Other things I liked (besides the fact that it is free) is the option to convert slide shows into video clips and the fact that I can send slide shows as email attachments straight out of the app.
For upcoming version it would be great to have an option to import images from online photo pages like Flickr, etc.
So far it's my personal favorite for slide show creating. Two thumbs up!
You can find this app on iTunes right here.

Iceland #9 & Flattr Invites
Don't let the title confuse you. It's actually the 11th picture already :)
I don't remember any other time where I set up a tripod that often. The trip was only five days long, but I still have images I haven't even looked at yet.
Following this link you can see all the pictures I posted so far.

New Flattr Numbers
Last month I got 135 Euros ($178) through Flattr.
Looking at those numbers I'm truly flattered, thank you guys! I'm still only having two Flattr buttons, but the overall number of clicks increased from 90 clicks in June to 175 clicks in July. Mostly through the New York series.
During the previous month Flattr-clicks accumulated to 33 Euros. The other day I read a post on the Financial Times blog about this new payment system and was very surprised to find my report mentioned there.
I would like to share some invite codes with you, but I'm out of them. So I guess you have to check back later..
