Pixelmator. Cheaper, smaller and visually much more appealing than Photoshop Elements Editor. And it has the Healing Brush (and an interesting alternative, where you simply paint a selection and then heal this entire selection). And supports Lion features - so versions, full screen etc. I got it, PSE will probably be filed under "paying tuition" in the round file.

Another Visit to Hamburg

Der Gezeitenunterschied in Hamburg ist deutlich merkbar in den Fleeten in der Nähe des Hafens.

The weather wasn't the best, so it was dry and not too cold, but unfortunately the sky was rather averse to photography - only milky mush in the sky. Never mind, still took photos and still had fun. The spice museum is really great, especially because of the smells. The Cap San Diego is interesting, albeit somewhat meager (the engine room is of course great, but with the cabins only a few are visible and the whole thing is rather sparse, they could make more of it). The exhibition "A Suitcase Full of Hope" is interesting, although it consists of 90% of set-up cardboard walls with printing. So much reading is in order. And the evening at the landing bridges is for me always a nice finish.
