Crickson's electric eye

Originally from the UK, I am currently living with Spiderbaby in the sub-arctic city of Umeå in the north of Sweden.

Currently I am working part-time on a research project at Norrlands universitetssjukhus and being a stay-at-home dad. At least until the snow clears, then I'll be a pushing-a-pram-around-Nydala-lake dad. In addition I am trying to make my photography hobby pay by making some of my images available to buy from instacanv.as or from me directly.

Interesting things I read recently:

If the London Underground network at rush-hour were a city, it would be the fourth-largest in the UK.

"If someone can work out how to hook up a chocolate bar into a cell phone, that'd be pretty good, because there's about 35 times the energy density in a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk [than cellphone batteries]". Simon Segars, ARM

I am Pavlovs_dog on PSN and would be happy to link up with PS3-owning mobloggers : )

Too Much Information: The first album I ever bought was the Fraggle Rock soundtrack. Pretty cool, eh? I was only 16 : )

Bike-cam!

(viewed 915 times)
Took a cycle ride out of town along the river. I have a clip that attaches my phone to my handlebars so I can use sat-nav - but it also means I have a bike-cam!

Mid-summer BBQ

The mist coming in off the lake made for a very spooky atmosphere. The grass hat thing is traditional. Apparently.

A decent phone at last! The quality of the photos is quite a step-change from my last SE!

It's supposed to celebrate a mathematical breakthrough made at the university.

Sun-kissed horizon

(viewed 1334 times)
Taken just after midnight at lake Nydala. It never really got dark and by the time we'd cycled home it was quite bright again.

As we watched, sunset melted into sunrise and the sky was deep blue, purple and gold. A moment not even midges and Swedes loudly playing euro-metal through tinny speakers could spoil.
