Hi my dear friends and/or watchers :) Feels like yesterday when I posted my last journal entry... but that's already soooooome time ago... ;) So it is about time for an update :nod: Yes, I am still alive and kicking. I am still visiting DA every 2-3 days and I am reading all comments/notes and try to reply as quick as possible. Just in case you were worried about missing content updates (see also below). So far I could avoid a Covid infection *knocking on wood*, thanks to keeping the distance, wearing masks and having four immunization/booster shots in the last years. Hiking and photography took over most of my available spare time. Last year I could reach another goal of mine, hiking more than 2000 km in one year, puhhh.... but this also means I have to set a new goal for 2023... hmm 2200 km as goal and maybe reaching 2500 km...? ;) Photography wise it was again a wonderful year, we had a festival with lots of street artists in our town which was simply amazing and so much

Yeah, that was quite an "interesting" year... :( A lot of things I have read in some SciFi novels became reality... Oh boy... I never thought that such a pandemic situation could become reality in my lifetime. But as you see I am still here, reading comments, giving replies and from time to time I create something new in Poser / Cinema 4D.... but not so many this year... :( Poser 11 stopped working due to the shift from Smith Micro to Bondware but finally works again. Poser Pro 14 most likely will stop working in January when Adobe Flash will be killed... Sadly PP14 still runs much better than the newer Poser 11 (yes, their versioning was kinda stupid). I tried DAZ/Studio but I still think it is some very strange software... :( Oh and I am still "stuck" on the "old" C4D R21 version... this new rental model does not work out for me... not with this high price tag... :no: Artistic wise I am currently heavily occupied by doing lots of fotowalks with my DSLR.
