FAlonso R29 Singapore GP

Leaving the luck with the safety car aside, Fernando Alonso has done a superb drive today at the Singapore Grand Prix. The disastrous qualifying problem that left Alonso on the 15 position at the grid with few possibilities to do a proper race, made everybody think this was totally lost. But a perfect strategy for such a difficult race, the luck with the safety car and a stunning pace and drive has made Fernando win the first night race of history, leaving Alonso, Renault F1 Team and all his fans with hopes for the future, which right now looks really on Renault’s side.

This weekend performance is the sign that with Fernando and a committed team almost any car can be devoloped to be a winner. So why not a next year specs Renault car?

My future camera

Wed Sep 17

It was time, after holding myself on updating my trusty Canon350D/RebelXT the powers that be (AKA Canon) had released my future DSLR, the 5D MKII, not only because is the affordable full frame Canon or because my lens investment is for full frame cameras, but because I can start taking advantage of the characteristics of an advance camera like the 5D MKII and is a sweet piece of hardware.
So lets start taking some money apart ;)

“The extended outlook for small, family-owned businesses is bleak, particularly when it comes to transitioning between generations. Only 33 percent survive the initial switch from first to second generation; 12 percent make it to the third generation; and only 3 percent make it to the fourth generation or beyond”

RAF Metheringham

Sat Aug 09

Slowly decaying since it stopped to be operational, one of the many airfields scattered around Lincolnshire UK, which supported bomber command operations with great sacrifice of people and resources, that are slowly dissapering.
Thanfully RAF Metheringham has a visitor center which carries the memory of the airfield, even when those old derelict buildings will fade away in time, the visitor center will carry the history of this and many other airfields that aren’t going to survive the time.

Lincoln

Sat Aug 02

At Lincoln in Lincolnshire UK, the bomber county, where in every couple of miles there is an active or abandoned RAF base, my kind of town :)
Apart from that a beautiful and friendly part of UK where I love to stay.
