Yesterday’s half moon – I went back to the old method of using the normal resolution because an attempt with the digital zoom was just too blurry. But I upped the number of stacked images to 20 and that seems to have decreased the noise dramatically although I used a lot of wavelet sharpening on this.

Our poor Christmas tree had a rough time in the last few days – it was so stormy that it fell over a couple of times and it spent a night lying on the balcony floor for safety, but there was no damage. Because of the weather I haven’t been able to get the “official” tree portrait yet, so for the third Advent Sunday it’s the Bokehmas tree instead!

This statue is standing in front of one of the schools here in the neighbourhood, but I have absolutely no idea what those horses are doing or what they are supposed to represent.

Ready to take over the world. Or at least part of the balcony!

Actually, they just come in one by one, quickly grabbing a bite and then they’re off again –
and very hard to catch even with the new camera, so that’s why this is a bit blurry :-).
