Lights in the Streets and first snow!

On Wednesday evening I met with a good friend of mine to go to Baden. Every year in November, when the weather gets colder and the people start wearing jackets, our city puts up very pretty Lights in the streets. It started to become quite a tradition and these lights are famous in the whole country. Baden even won the price for the prettiest Christmas lights in Switzerland!
Just when it got dark, there was a little theatre in the middle of the city and then, with the sound of dozen children's bells they turn the lights on.. Oooooh!
I also took my camera with my with the new (old) 50mm lens to try and get some good shots of the lights. I did not focus them, so they looked like big, round blobs of light which looks a bit better I think.














Yesterday evening there was also a jamsession in Baden where I went to. It was really cool because I have met lots of my friends there and played music with them :)


Ah and of course the snow!


See you next Saturday :)

A new vintage Lens and a very cool soul concert!

Two days after I have ordered it from Canada a new (old) Nikon lens has arrived! It's a 50mm with f1.2 and it's very lightweight and small so perfect to carry around with you!
I was hoping a lot that it was not a fake one since I have got it from Ebay and you can't always be sure.. But it works just fine!
Here are some test images and one of them turned out very nice. They show our very cloudy and autumny weather that we have got in Switzerland at the moment. It is really cold here and I am sure that there will be some snow coming soon!








And it really did just start snowing!!






On Thursday I went to a free concert at the Casino in our City like I do most Thursdays. But this one was especially nice and I took a little video for you ;)
