Zsofia’s photos from Sailing the Balaton
September 20th, 2010
Comments off
I invited Zsofia for a four day sailing trip (“bring a spare pair of panties, we may stay longer”). 15 days later we return! Anyway these are a few of her shots, obviously she’s quite good at this. This is a HUGE Pod Blog, hang on to your shorts…
- OK Zsofia, this is the boat and I know what I’m doing… honest
- Buzzer hatch. Pretty impressive if they stayed out the cabin.
- Some kind of funky lens.
- Basically a fantastic picture of my head.
- A castle. Probably Turkish.
- The Pogacha (which means bread roll).
- The rolling hills of the North side.
- Under sail…
- The Pogacho, formerly volcanic.
- Zsofika modelling the SL Hoodie.
- Flyfishing action.
- Intensive Imaginary Asp Fishing.
- Looking cool.
- Big skies and the Pogachoo from the other side.
- Nice picture here, Zsofia wearing the SL cap which she stole before I gave it to her for her Name Day.
- Many beautiful evening sailings.
- See?
- Zsofia is an artist and so some of the photos may be a bit weird.
- I took this one (it’s great).
- Zsofia took this one while I was sleeping.
- A harbour somewhere, Boglar maybe.
- Big skies, big water.
- It could rain…
- Art.
- Intense Asp Fishing.
- One telephone call, Ralf asking me to come fish Germany. I said Ja.
- Meanwhile Zsofia is doing artistic stuff.
- The Pogachas
- Sunset next to the Pogachoni
- A fisherman.
- New SL range of camouflage big game hunting suits.
- Capt Sexyloops at the helm.
- Windy.
- Wet.
- Windy and Wet.
- Some funky ass church on a hill.
- Random palace. No one knows its name.
- Action! We save this boat from certain destruction when it broke it’s mooring.
- Here I’m helping by drinking a beer and smoking a cigar.
- Back to the Art. I could tell you how Zsofia managed this but then I’d have to kill you.
- A steely pose with one of the locals.
- Puszi puszi.
- Hmmm. A shot through the window.
- Water – and light.
- OK, back to serious stuff. Paul navigates.
- Paul picks his nose. Zsofia likes this picture.
- I think this is a cool shot.
- Hard at work while Zsofia prepares noodles and toast (her speciality).
- Drunk.
- Rain coming in fast. It will rain for the next five days. But that’s nothing as it turns out.
- The Balaton can be extremely beautiful.
- Evening light. Photographers have a special word for it, but I’ve forgotten what it is. Welcome to Sexyloops, a minefield of information.
- Water.
- A rock fisherman. Probably fishing for carp.
- Siofok. Pronounced as you’d hope.
- The Pogacha
- Siofok again.
- Masts (nautical term).
- I like this shot.
- Not sure where this is exactly, but it’s on the Balaton.
- Another interesting shot.
- Ah, we’re still at Siofok.
- On to the next destination…
- Blue shoes for Lady Blue.
- The wind is getting up and going to try to sink the boat a bit later.
- The boat has eyes.
- You can take some cool shots with this lens.
- We decide to make a bog-roll note.
- In two languages we give many pieces of advice to fellow yachtsman such as ourselves.
- Evening light..
- Nose and ear exercises cleverly captured by Zsofi
- More sunsets.
- WOW this is a long POD Blog!
- Some photo art creeps in towards the end.
- We visit Tihany.
- The church at Tihany.
- Heading back towards Kesthely…
- Some more hardcore Imaginary Asping.
- Stormy weather…. and then Zsofia’s camera battery dies. Which is a shame because all the Big Asps were caught then!
