Toll House

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2022

The theme for the weekly lens artists challenge is ‘home sweet home‘. In the middle ages one had to pay tax (toll) to use the canal to enter goods into a city. This is a toll house in Oegstgeest at the Leidsevaart or Trekvaart. I am not following the brief, pointing to the places people should visit in The Netherlands. They are well known, and the paths towards them are flattened by millions of tourists. I just point to small places telling a bit about my flat country. This is the second photo of this toll house, the first was earlier this week (click here).

Autumn 2022 – Grass Game

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2022

The theme for the weekly lens artists challenge is ‘textures‘. Grasses in Autumn with a bit of sun behind deliver magic each time. I deliberately kept the focus on one, so you have to fill in the texture of the rest in your mind.
