I was today years old when I learned

chown rachel: foo

was equivalent to

chown rachel:rachel foo

All those years of keystrokes wasted!

Hi friends!

As I won't be able to compile the video the next day, I decided to just share the photos already. I played around a lot with foregrounds .. and honestly deleted most of them - but I also learned a lot.

We did this trail ... many years ago and we always wanted to revisit it. (of course I felt challenged to take better photos as well)

I hope you enjoy the photo as much as I did walking the trail.

Können wir Mal drüber nachdenken deren Hobby nicht mehr so massiv von Staatswegen her zu Subventionieren?

I really don't get why some people get so upset that they have to DM me about some of us regularly using hashtags here. In the absence of search, it's the only viable means to organize my own content here, but HTs also help others to discover & filter (ir)relevant posts. They also allow me to share project specific links like these below to non-followers or non-fediverse people:

• https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/tagged/ThingUmbrella
• https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/tagged/LandscapePhotography
• https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/tagged/LinearMemory
• https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/tagged/DANZA

I've been using hashtags very consciously and usually not an excessive amount. I'm also writing them in CamelCase to be more accessible. Putting a bunch of keywords at the end of my posts shouldn't cause issues to anyone. If their presence really does offend you, please share what (better) alternatives exist...

One of the photos from our hike through the #gleirschklamm near #Scharnitz . I finalized the #photos already - yet I'm struggling a bit with video-or-not.

Anyways, I like how the stream winds through the photo. I had to work a bit on the rock on the left so that it doesn't just look like a huge boring block.

I hope you feel both the strong stream but also the calm atmosphere of the moment.

Hey friends!

The weather forecast today was "a lot of rain". In the morning it had changed to "rain from 3pm".so we decided to do a small hike on the local #blomberg.

In the photos you see a couple of impressions from our 3h activity. It was really the best decision to go out.
We just returned, had a coffee are relaxing on the couch and the rain and thunder just started rolling over us.

Well. I hope you enjoy your day as well!

Hey friends!
I finished my video & blogpost for last week's #hiking day. I felt a bit sore if you remember. But it turned out to be a grand day!

I wrote about more context about the day. I'm slowly getting into writing longer texts.

And I'm getting more and more into #video ! okay, far from professional, though. But it's kinda fun (but weird to see myself on the screen).

In this image, we see a middle-aged man taking a selfie outdoors in a grassy field with a cloudy sky in the background. The man is wearing sunglasses and a backpack, indicating he may be hiking or backpacking. He is smiling and posing for the selfie, showcasing a happy expression on his face. The dominant colors in the image are grey, with the accent color being a dark green. The man's face is the main focus of the image. The overall scene suggests a sense of adventure and travel, capturing a moment of joy in the great outdoors.

Ticked off one from the bucket list yesterday: Gleirsch canyon, carved out by one of the earliest tributaries of the Isar river, both with an incredibly beautiful turquoise water color. The canyon itself is one of the wildest & Tolkienesque I've ever been too, higher up parts then offering amazing views of the epic Karwendel main range... ❤️

Back from an amazing hike. Did the big round across the Soierngroup mountains from Signalkopf to Soiernspitze, depending on how you count it 5 summits or so.

Winter is over - time to get rid of some of my #winter #photos on FineArtAmerica and change into a more summer style.

If you're interested in a print or anything from THIS photo - better be quick. I'll remove it soon.

Ha for today's #FotoVorschlag "Spuren" (traces), this photo came to my mind immediately.

I took it on a little #hiking tour in #winter when I was just enjoying the silence while having a snack, looking around and admiring the untouched #nature - and suddenly realizing that it isn't untouched AT ALL. 😀

Anyways, I hope you enjoy it.

🤔 Is there a way to embed a #Peertube player into #Wordpress similar to a Youtube player? In terms of auto-adjusting the width of the player to the screen size etc.?

Looks like CSS-fiddling .. 🤔

hikingdude, 28 days ago to photography

Hey guys - quick heads up: I'll remove this photo from my FineArtsAmerica Site, soon to give way to other photos.

If you think it would make up good as a Print, Poster, IPhone case, Pillow, ... don't think too long ;)

A rarely post about my work: But today was nice:

On an event part of my work / use case was presented amongst others. Yesterday I was told that it would be great if I'd present it myself. Slides were all prepared for me (didn't have to do them myself!) and I was introduced as "the champion of the tech-adopters".

I wasn't told before!! I just thought I should talk about my UseCase.
That was really a nice surprise.

My nephew said he wanted to climb a mountain this visit. He said he wanted to be challenged. So I took him to Mt Whitney.

I almost finished my blog post about last week's hike yesterday but couldn't agree on a title. Now it's done:

https://www.franzgraf.de/blog/2024/springtime-in-alpine-meadows/

You probably know the #photos already - but I added a bit of a text as well. Btw do you think it could be more text? I always fear that a lot of text isn't ready anyways and ppl probably prefer videos.
(I mean - I also like videos with good voice and no text.. why shouldn't you do as well)

Enjoy!

Hey friends,
we are back from a day in the #mountains! We both didn't feel too well when starting but we did the tour as planned:

We came up to the peak (from where the photo was taken), went to the 2nd behind me, back around the 1st up to the 3rd visible in the center and cont'd to the 4th in the back right at the border of the photo.

And then back down. Mood was good as you can see 😊 we are now tired but well tanned.

Hey friends!

I finished the #photos from last weekend. This is directly from the start. And I admit, I had a pretty WOW feeling.

I'm not 100% satisfied as I wanted even more blur in the front. But still it's been one of the greatest views at the start of a hike I ever had.

Enjoy!
