Snowy morning
[posted at 07:58 GMT]    

Today morning is very similar, in sense of how I feel, to yesterday's evening, when I have put Alone tree picture on-line. Similar, but different. I woke up today, and in contrast with weather forecast, it is cloudy, dark and was snowing. And you know, in The Netherlands, this is not very common. At least not in past six years I am living here. This winter, in general, is much more stronger than anything I remember here. So, morning dark, with a little pounder two centimeters of dry snow on road and grass. Very beautiful. I used to went out with camera twenty five (Oh gosh) years ago and took shots in such a weather. I used 50ASA fomapan film (not in production anymore) and was shooting white fields, trees, roads leading to white land. Cool and nostalgic feelings. And those feelings I am sharing now as well.

Maybe you know last.fm and Pandora systems. Shortly, it is cool way to discover new music by listening sound stream which is customized for you based on your choice and what have you listen in the past. I like it, I have found a huge amount of music I never heard about, for example band Moloko :-). Today slahsdot brought link to interesting article, comparing both of these systems. So Take a look what it is and how last.fm compares to Pandora.
