Mucking about with +darktable makes me feel like an eejit. 
With great power comes great need to RTFM.

Anyway, here's a butterfly of some ilk.

As the days get warmer I'm in the market for some comfy summer footwear.
I don't give a crap what the internet says. I know what I'm getting.

Hepatica nobilis - Sinivuokko
Glad to see these white variants popping up again this year. The actual white Anemone nemorosas will come a bit later.

Jollei tästä maanantaiaamusta muuta kehuttavaa keksi, niin ainakin aamukahvi oli makoisaa kuin mikäkin. Kokeilin uutta merkkiä ja ilmeisesti annostuskin osui nappiin.

Does anyone else have problems with stuttering audio recording? Seems to happen with any app that records audio, like Easy Voice Recorder or Sleep as Android, and recording video with the camera app. Playing back other audio files works fine, but audio recorded with the phone sounds choppy and slowed down.

More motherflipping snow
One of the very few good things about snow is that nature can get quite pretty.

Ennen vanhaan kiskoin kitisemättä kaikki automaatti- ja pikakahvit ja sekalaiset pannunpohjat, mutta sitten hommasin kehutun AeroPress kahvipumpun. Sittemmin on tullut notkuttua pitempäänkin marketin kahvihyllyillä, lähinnä tummemman paahdon perässä ja eri merkkeihin tutustuen. Jostain kerran siunaantui lahjoituksena paketti Juhla Mokkaa, josta oli kyllä juhla kaukana. Se on ilmeisesti kahvi niille, jotka eivät pidä kahvin mausta.

An autumnal photo of the Imatrankoski Rapids
From finland.fi: "Imatrankoski is the best-known of the rapids along the Vuoksi. It has a drop of 18 m and was one of Finland's best-known sights from the early 19th century onwards, being renowned for its wild torrent for centuries before that."

I finally started going through my vacation snapshots, throwing out the crappiest ones. It's a slow, slow process as I often find myself stuck on some photos, dicking around doing panoramas and HDR stuff.
