Learning Swedish

The boys are still all on holiday despite the schools having started. I thought it too much to send them to school for a few weeks and then head off to SA.

Today is what is often called a rainy, cold and shitty day (at least by me). I have the fire going and the boys have been doing some Swedish grammar (Johanna got them started).

Viggo loves studying and had fun writing in his book.

As an aside, I am getting into the micro four thirds format more and more. It really is nice having a small camera which can take the manual focus lenses I collected when I bought a Leica last year. This image is taken with the Zeiss Planar 2/50mm @ f2. The lens is really pretty tiny and images are really bright.

Here's a larger version of Viggo as I think it easier to see the soft glow from the lens. I know it is the lens as I have a Russian lens I bought for next to nothing which is really fun to use but I discovered that the colors are all a little dull when compared to the Zeiss.

Not sure if you can see but here are two images, one from the Zeiss and one from the Russian lens.
