I'm more of a guitarist, but that's a nice ukulele!

Thank you very much!
I am a guitar guy myself, but I figured a uke would be fun and easy to pick up since I have guitar experience.

Truth is, barring the fret is hard because I am not used to it. Already playing a few songs though. Is it possible to upload a video without uploading it to youtube? If not, that is ok. I might do a sample and put it up soon.
 
My Nürburgring bag's starting to tear apart, sadly, so I've bought this:

It was on sale so I thought why not... :p
 
My latest purchase! a 2015 Kia Forte. I've so far since purchase put 1k miles on her. It is in desert sand with light grey interior.

Satellite radio, Bluetooth, CD, USB, AUX, etc.

I do not have cruise control though and I miss it, but honestly when I do have it, I never use it.
Sorry for the lack of good pictures its cold outside!

Got myself a new suit! A steal for less than a hundred bucks, especially given the difficulties I've had with finding something that fits me in the past. H&M, of all places :lol:

Gotta resize the photo I took, gonna edit that in in a second.

Thanks! I was worried I'd end up looking a little too Swedish :D

So that's what you look like, huh?

Looking sharp. :p

EDIT: Forgot to mention this...

Oh yeah.

I don't always look like that :lol: How's Bloodborne, by the way? Might be another excuse reason to get myself a PS4, alongside Gran Turismo 7 and No Man's Sky.

I'll let you know when the damned thing unlocks. I can say this though: if you've played any of the Souls games then you already know what kind of... beating you're in for.

Wow, Canon cameras are really going cheap these days!

What you can't see is that it's actually a Cannon camera. :p

Is that strap a neoprene one? Looks like it at least from the photo.

Yup. Neoprene. Feels sturdy for the money though.

These are gonna come in on the 7th April, finally got a new pair since my Old dreamgear headset broke a while ago :p
 
Bought a second pair skishoes (ski boots). Found out that the other were one size too big.

And bought a second mini 0806 dashcam.
 
Inner sleeves for vinyl protection.

Where do you keep your food in the fridge? That lot must take up some serious space.

Don't need food when you eat, sleep, breathe photography! :p


I keep around 20 rolls (10x 35mm, 10x 120) in the kitchen fridge, the rest goes in another fridge in the garage. One day I'll get a smaller fridge and have a setup like this: http://arimotoshinya.com/archives/6161/
 
@F1GTR that's pure class and serious dedication to the art.
 
The KTM was in desperate need of some new parts.

D.I.D X-Ring chain, and a set of Dirt Tricks Ironman sprockets to go along with it.
The sprockets have a 1 year warranty which is unheard of for dirt sprockets, everyone on forums seems to love them so it should justify the price if they last twice as long.

A set of Bridgestone 403/404 tires. Had a set of Dunlop MX51s on it but that's only because it was the only set available when I changed them last year.

And rear wheel bearings.

To follow up to this post, I gave the basketball a go at my local neighborhood park. I am still a pretty terrible shooter and my dribbling skills have somewhat diminished. However, even though I was terrible, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to mess around on a court again and just handle a basketball. It has been much too long of a time since I last handled a basketball.

And I thought that having 10 rolls of unused film was a bit extreme for me.

It's either this or spend $60k on a achromatic medium format system and a Leica M Monochrom...
