I really liked the interesting remarks about lighting & photography, thanks for that. The golden hour is my favorite but you always seem to find the best perspective & setting for all your photographs. The tour through Substack was also interesting & helpful.

And Alexnotes. Well, you know how I feel about that so enough said.

Have a great day!

Loved the remarks on photography. I'm gonna try and catch the sunrise or sunset tomorrow. Might even bring my big camera. Knowing me it will more likely be the sunset.

We do like our croissants here as well (we call them Gipfeli). They are the reason it's not such a good idea to have a bakery right downstairs.

Your pictures are great and I enjoy anything on history or nature. I have even started enjoying art. Travel might be a bit difficult at the moment, but OTD stories could be doable. Also, anything you're working on and can or want to share. I'm really enjoying my lunch time newsletter. Thank you!

Of course I read through to the end. Didn’t want to miss anything. How tragic about that painter. We lost so many wonderful and creative persons through the wars. There must come a time when humans finally realize that war should never be the solution to problems. Seems not only are there creatures under the ice but there may be viruses that will affect our health. Another good reason to combat climate change.

Good morning Alexander, I liked your tour through Substack and discovered some more of its features. Navigating is easy, but one has to be curious enough to 'Click on all the tabs'. I missed the one under 'community' that shows the 'Comments' from current and past postings, and, I believe one can add some more 'comments' on previous posts. It feels more like having a conversation that sticks around, because you can still add thoughts to Way-Back articles when you have an 'Aha! moment to share. It's always nice to see an Alexnote. It reminds me that time evaporates but not your notes. (-:

PS. The article on the Pleistocene Age worms found in the Arctic permafrost and are alive and eating after being defrosted some 42,000 years later is amizing.
