Stripped down
Becoming 30 feels like a bless.
Unlike my mom back then, I haven't 2 children nagging around, and I actually have a nice job, providing me with money I can spend on whatever I feel like.
So, unlike people who freak out at thinking three zero, I feel quite happy.
I am finally losing some of my nervousity, and am (finally?) calming down.
Yet, I do feel it is the perfect moment to check some stuff.
Re-think the road I have been taking and if it was the way I intended it. If not, if it was good or bad to switch paths.
Back to basics too.
I like back to basics. To simple lines. And details.
I started out with this site. A re-design.
Putting the dead-line today was surely the intention.
Stripping off the extra's too.
After several years of blogging, and adding too many extra's, I stripped them.
Yet, trying to implement/leave the stuff I think worthwhile.
Verify the subjects I have been pondering about. Skipping those that bored me after all.
More focus on the stuff that is important.
Maybe even aim at more content again (like in the early days)
Stripping down a lot of other stuff too.
While the last few years have been totally focussed on internet and new media, I love the idea that lately I re-found fun in photography.
And I am actually enjoying being out side picturing real life, instead of observing this other space amalgam( ;) )
I don't know what the future will bring.
And actually, that's why I like it :)
Btw: no need to change your feed: indeed thanks to Feedburner it stays the same.
People who formerly surfed to Typepad instead of Monuments.nu need to change directions.
And please, for linklove, refer to monuments.nu instead of other stuff. Much appreciated!
The Dutch section also relocated. Tout nu is the new destination :)

Knew it was your birthday, but I didn't expect this Ine 3.0. Refreshing, and lightning fast. I hope you have a nice day!
