kribuWhy do I have the feeling that picspam makes up 2/3 of my recent posts? (And the rest is memes?)
Gah. Anyway, yesterday was pretty - sunnyish and not storm-class windy - although cold, which meant that my hands were absolutely frozen 20 minutes into the walk. Which meant complete reliance on auto mode (there was no way I was going to fiddle with anything more complicated than pressing the shutter button, which was hard enough) and thus some exposure problems... ah well. At least I got to take my wide angle lens out for some fresh air ... for the second time since I bought it, I think. About time, considering it's the most expensive piece of glass that I own!

The back side of the new Tallinn synagogue.
The front side.
A random door.
Reflections on a random house.
Some... things. I think they might be lamps.
An old grain elevator, waiting for reconstruction works to start.
Another angle, with the moon.
A random fuzzy cat on the construction site.
One of the department stores in the brand new / reconstructed Rotermanni quarter.
An entrance to the department stores.
Another angle.
And yet another angle.
Inner courtyard of the department store block.
Another building in the same quarter.
The department stores from another angle.
And in reflection.
Spent yesterday evening at home freezing ... at least it seems to be better now. Of course, the weather has also taken a turn for the warmer (=just above 0°C, sleet/rain, windy, disgusting). No going out today, yay.
Also just spent a quarter of an hour playing with Musti, throwing some wrapped-up tinfoil around and having her chase it all over the sofa and the floor. It's been a long time since Musti's been so playful, what with her arthritis and weight problems - but we've been lazier feeding them lately, and it seems both Musti and Kribu have become livelier. It's so great to see them running around and playing again.

Date: 17 February 2008 15:51 (UTC)Even cats seem to start behaving in a more respectable and distinguished way when they get older... it's partly why I was so happy to see Musti chasing it around today, I was starting to wonder if she ever would again! Not only will she (and Kribu) be 12 this year, but with her arthritis, she's really been having some trouble moving around too much in the last couple of years.
