Bike Repair Stand For Less[a]
When washing your bike or taking a wrench to it, it's nice to be able to rotate the pedals, have things at eye-level, and so on.

Moon Over Husarviken[b]
Still not a cliche.

Droplets[c]
I think it's the little hairs on the leaves that hold the droplets.

Little Lost Bee[d]
Spring is here, and some get to work right away. (I helped it out.)

​March

Another Husarvik Sunset[e]
This will turn into a cliche, but it's not there yet.

Can't Turn Off Core Isolation or Memory Integrity[f]
Turn on Hyper-V.

Installing Photoshop CS6 on Windows 10[g]
Notes from a couple of painful hours.

Pre- and Post-Processing When Archiving Video[h]
When recompressing videos it's a good idea to get the video as right as possible. Since we're going to apply lossy compression to it we want to make sure that we end with as good a copy as possible

The Deer of Årsta[i]
A sign of spring, a herd of deer graze on the small green shoots found under the thick layer of last year's autumn leaves.

Cemetery of Laterino[j]
A large cemetery in Siena, dating from 1784.

Where the Walls Have Ears[k]
A building with a very stylish intercom.

​February

Three Years Fighting[l]
I think it's time we started properly curb stomping Russia. You don't win by incremental means, you win by really going for the kill.

Concrete[m]
Shape, not color.

A Walk Around Husarviken[n]
A winter walkabout.

​January

Video Recompression for Archiving[o]
The results were surprisingly good. 4K video would recompress to as little as 10% of the original file with no loss that I could see, while FullHD would recompress to about one-fifth.

Ice[p]
I find ice formations fascinating. A bit like the old-school plasma effect.

Sunset Over Husarviken[q]
Nice winter sunset.

And There Comes the Snow[r]
It's been hovering around freezing for a bit, but finally we got a proper delivery of the white stuff.

Gnomesville[s]
South of Perth, there is a place where every gnome can find a home.

A Cold Afternoon at Laduviken[t]
It's winter: with the cold, but without the snow.
