Hello all, nothing special about this image, I just wanted to show my technical progress.
300mm at 10m distance. (50% crop)



I haven't been posting for about 6 months now, that's because I build a house all by myself.
But I watch your pictures every evening.
Thanks for watching,

Igor

A very nice pic, Igor. I think eagles are beautiful creatures.

Now, can we see pics of the house build? That's something I could never do. Congratulations!

Ok p38arover, I started last year but the police stopped me because I didn't have the right permit, (in Belgium you need a permit to go to the toilet) so the initial structure weathered during the winter, I started again the last week of march, this is the result sofar. The window frames will be painted in brown like the doors. Inside there is still a lot of work.





















10cm of foam is added to the walls and then mortar coating and a finish coating, that coating was done by professionals.






That's all.
