Story of “Hope”

The weekly theme is ‘story’.

This old wind mill from 1783 has its own story. Its name, ‘De Hoop Doet Leven’,  is a Dutch saying: meaning hope brings or gives life. Till 1999 the mill was part of the water management of a polder near Rijnsburg. It was too close to the new build of flower auction Royal Flora Holland, and the auction paid for its removal to this new spot. It is still working as a museum to the public.

Not the 2017 Favourite: Vogue, strike the pose: sleep! (Leftover 12)

The last weekly photo challenge of 2017 is ‘2017 Favourite’: share the most meaningful photo that you have taken in 2017. Well, that is tough: which one of the odd 365 photo’s to choose? A lot of them are special to me, meaningful, but it might be that I did not publish my most meaningful photo of 2017 on my blog. So I am taking my own direction in this theme: I am not going to choose. My personal theme this week will be about photo’s that are leftovers of 2017. And they all are meaningful to me as well. I hope you do not mind. Wishing all of you a fabulous 2018.
