I’m not much of a coder, but I did cobble together a handful of tools and scripts for my personal use. The fruits of my coding endeavors are avalable on GitHub.

A hand-picked selection of my photos is available at Wikimedia Commons. All photos there are released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. In my spare time, I tinker with Pygmyfoto, a crude solution for publishing a photo roll on the web.
