  • The daily vlogs continue with a slightly different take on life in Hamburg. The weather has been so good the last few days I had to take advantage by getting in a round of Disc Golf at the HSV Volkspark.
    Disc Golf is by far my #1 hobby/sport addiction. For the last 5 years it's been a big part of my free time and mental health therapy. This is the perfect activity to help clear your mind, get outside, stay active and have fun. & it's usually free! You have to buy the discs, but the activity itself is almost always free to play.
    I'm a member of the HSV Disc Golf club here in Hamburg and hope to compete in a few local German Tournaments throughout the summer.
    More info about the Club - www.hsv-discgolf.de/

I used to play golf - 14 handicap , not in the same league as Nick Page - hes pro level , almost ! Love the daily blogs , its great to see around the place where you live. Main hobbies are going to football ,travelling and landscape photography , I made the exit from wedding photography about a year before all the restrictions came in - phew.

    I played Beachvolleyball until I injured my shoulder. After a surgery I watched all the Thomas Heaton videos and there my passion for landscapes started. Now while my shoulder is still not good enough for Beachvolleyball landscape photography + my UA-cam channel is my hobby #1. I like how it turned out so far, I think it was destiny :)
    I will miss the vlogs!

    Hi Greg,
    Loving the daily vlogs at the moment. Would be great to maybe stretch them out a bit further, but I expect that you may eventually get a bit burnt out doing them and trying to find new things to vlog.
    Keep them going maybe as long as you’re feeling inspired to do them, but as soon as it starts to get stale for you, stop and do something different. The algorithm may not like it, but the faithful followers will appreciate the content more if it’s what you want to do.
    You will soon find out, like I did, that once you have children, your hobbies involve chasing toddlers, and “clubs” like dancing, gymnastics, etc. Those are my hobbies now, aside from photography- taking pictures of the child! 😉
    Good luck with it!

    Bundle of positive energy you are . Looking forward to taking you to another pro soccer game , even though HSV are struggling a lot to go back to first league . Actually the best 11 disc golfers of HSV would do a better job I assume ...

    Hi Greg, I'm really enjoying your daily vlog series. I like the variety as well, not everything has to be photography related to be enjoyable. I found you through Brendan's channel originally and I have also enjoyed his vlogs about setting up the coffee studio. Your daily vlog series have been quite inspiring to me and motivated me to get out and explore locally to see what the possibilities are and try to make some images. My other hobby, aside from photography is field archery which gets me out to some great locations around Europe and fuels my passion for the outdoors. Just wish I didn't have to do #dayjob to support my hobbies :)

    Hey Greg, I have really appreciated the time and effort you've put into these. The format is good, in my mind it does not always have to be about photography. The length is spot on too. I also like that you are showing the city there. Shows you don't always have to go to some epic spot to make interesting art. I hope if you have the time and inclination you keep making these every so often after the 30 days. I need an extra hobby, have played disc golf twice a few years ago. That looks like a winner. hope like heck we can get back to travel which i guess is a hobby too. Thanks - tim

Also enjoy mountain bike on occasions , and walking whenever we get a chance . Hopefully normality will return soon , until then stay safe .

    Saw the motorcycle in the parking lot behind you and thought "cool! he's gonna do motorcycles!" but had to check myself. :^D I do that again too. Looks like fun though.
