Flowers

Spent this morning taking pictures of flowers in the garden, and tonight I made a few wallpapers of them.

Pictures can be found here: u2m.nl/photos/

Visiting Swomp.

Today, after sleeping in nice and late. I visited the Swomp, A small squatted piece of land in the middle of the city of Amsterdam.

The land is used by the neighbourhood as a sort of free-state and free-gardening ground. It’s been squatted now for almost a year and looking very green and tasty (they have lovely berries and wonderful rucola).

It’s a completely ecological and non-profit setup, some money was investing in getting some fertileground and trees, but lots was recycled or composted.

A great initiative I think, one that we should have more of. I’ve put some crappy pictures online aswell: http://u2m.nl/photos/2009-06-14-swomp-amsterdam/

And here’s a good shot:
