Blue hour walk in Dortmund Nordstadt, Dec 28, 2014
So I’m still sick at home but today the weather was nice and I wanted to go out and take some pictures in the blue hour. In the end there were 127 pictures, 40 of which I selected here (most of the time clouds in the setting sun, one of my favourite themes).

Yesterday I visited Westfalenpark Dortmund for Winterleuchten with a friend. I was not good at taking night-time pictures with my canon, next time I’ll bring a tripod 😉

Lesebestätigung (blaue Häkchen) in WhatsApp loswerden / getting rid of reading confirmation (blue ticks) in WhatsApp / eliminar la confirmación de lectura en WhatsApp, Dec 16, 2014
Wenn Du vermeiden willst, daß andere WhatsApp Nutzer die blauen Häkchen angezeigt bekommen, wenn Du ihre Nachricht gelesen hast (das Chat-Fenster angezeigt hast), kannst Du jetzt (ich habe Version 2.11.476 auf Android 2.3, es mag schon früher funktioniert haben) die Lesebestätigung deaktivieren. Du findest ganz unten auf der Seite “Einstellungen – Account – Datenschutz” eine Checkbox “Lesebestätigung“. Wie im Screenshot beschrieben, bekommst Du im Gegenzug dann auch keine Lesebestätigungen mehr.
WhatsApp Lesebestätigung deaktivieren If you want to prevent other WhatsApp users from receiving the blue ticks once you read their message (display the chat window), now (as of version 2.11.476 on Android, it might have been there earlier) you can deactivate the reading confirmation. In the page “Settings – Account – Privacy” there’s a checkbox “Read receipts“. As said in the screenshot this means you also won’t receive any further reading confirmations as well.
WhatsApp: Read receipts Si quieres evitar que los otros usarios de Whatsapp reciben los ganchillos azules cuando has leido su mensage (has abrido el ventana de caht), ahora (tengo la versión 2.11.476 en Android, tal vez hubia mas temprano tambíen) lo puedes desactivar. En la pagina “Ajustes – Info de cuenta – Privacidad” hay un checkbox “Confirmación de lectura“. Como dice la captura de pantalla, si desactivaslo, ya no vas a recibir confirmaciónes de lectura tampoco.

Sunny day, Nov 22, 2014
So yesterday also was a sunny day, and although I just was running around with my smartphone, here are the results 🙂 The book you see is called “Pflanzen-Deko kreativ & selbstgemacht” (“creative, self-made decoration with plants”), written by fellow blogger Fee, a really nice person whom I was happy to meet during her presentation of it.
