When I look back, I think I’ve had a very good year 2005.

How was your 2005?

Never thought I would stumble on a Space Invader at the Old Harbour in Bastia…

Bastia’s Citadel at dusk, as seen from the old harbour.

Philippe is a gardener who spent most of his vacation time fishing near Bastia’s old harbour.

First snow in Paris yesterday, Jardin des Tuileries.

Only my second experience of shooting in the snow.
The first one was disastrous, as my old digicam fell in the snow and refused to boot up for weeks. This time, I could really trust the camera’s body, and that makes a tremendous difference.
Too bad there’s no snow anymore this morning…

And then we danced.

I’ve grown a new interest in having a life recently, and some guilt for my readers who wouldn’t see blog updates in weeks while my flickr account is rather active.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so I’m just going to integrate the photolog in the blog itself: you’ll see thousands words, ain’t that grand?

Now, I think I could just use flickr’s “Blog This” function, but that would leave me with twenty six blog entries to edit for accurate date and tags. Boooooring.

So before I set on to script my way out of this problem with some flickr API love and direct post injections in WP, if you know a script that already does that please comment with some pointers!
Not that I couldn’t do it, but do we really need to code the wheel twice?

(That message brought to you by the I-have-a-thousand-things-to-catch-up-on division. Thanks for your attention, and have a nice day.)

Update: it’s done! (With custom, terrible-looking code.)

Hers, mine, and a stranger’s.

On a photo trip with madflo, I took this, while he took that.
