I am on my way and on the roads towards Trelleborg and the ship once again. I have spent the morning packing two large suitcases with stuff that will become necessary and convenient for my life onboard. I know that I bring too much things with me, but I hate to discover that I'm not in possession of what I need or want at the moment onboard the ship. However, on this ship it is very easy to go ashore and refill the stack with stuff that I need compared to onboard the vessels which do not go into port that frequently. Even though, my bags are filled with books (an easy calculation shows that I just can't read them all, there will be no time, but I like to have the possibility to choose among the books so it suits my literature preferences of the day), I have brought my monospeaker (which also is complete necessary ;), almost all of my camera equipment (so there will be more frequent updates here) and a large amount of other technical gadgets. When I come onboard I do not like to leave the ship before the contract is over, I don't know why, maybe because I am too lazy to do so. But the possibility of shorebased shopping is however good when you are planning what to bring to the ship.
Yesterday I visited my friend Anna together with another friend, Linda. Earlier this week we planned a second photo shoot in her upcoming apartment (the first photo can be found here), so yesterday afternoon we spent an hour or two behind and in front of the camera. I have got a remote trigger for my camera now, which make it way more easy to take self portraits. Anna's dog, Doris, did also participate in the photo shoot.
Anna, Linda and Doris
A dog named Doris. With a hat. Selbstverständlich.
The self portrait
I think it is a little bit of a pity that the remote control is visible in my hand at the last photo, but it isn't so much to do about it now afterwards. I also see that the pictures are a bit too dark, but I believe it is because of the fact that the screen to the stationary computer at home are no longer calibrated. Maybe I will upload a set with brighter photos later.
Now - time for the sea.
