This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge (#161) is ‘feet and shoes’. Trying to find something that fits into this theme was difficult. I am not really into shoes or feet, let alone photos of them! However, I found one. I think. During a visit to the bi-annual photo exhibition at Naarden (FFN) in 2007 I shot these photographers clicking away on a just married couple.

It is nice to look around for striking objects. This one is originally color but in mono the horse comes out.

Bretagne has one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. I love the rocks and the breaking water. A dangerous shore for sure, but a beautiful source of inspiration. Here a part of the marked entrance to the port of Saint-Malo,.

My inspiration for photography is triggered in any place I am, just looking around, looking for the things that strike my eye. One of the maybe peculiar subjects is tombstones or graveyards. Colleville sur Mer, Margraten, Père Lachaise or a little village graveyards in England. They all tells stories about life and people who lived those lifes. In my ‘archive graveyard’ you can find some examples. This is the graveyard at the parish church of Tideswell.

My inspiration for photography is triggered in any place I am, just looking around, looking for the things that strike my eye. It can be near home in the garden, on the road to work or during travels. In the latter case it helps that all I see is new, so my curiosity is raised a bit more than when I cycle the well known route to the station. This dog was waiting patiently for the return of the boss at the post office in Tideswell.

The harbor of Barfleur, a small village in the West of Normandy. Years ago I had an idea to sell postcards from photos I was shooting. It never came to reality. This would be a pretty one I think.

La Défense is a big, modern office area in Paris. I remember my teacher for French saying she did not like it at all, too modern, on the old axe of the Champs Elysées and Louvre. Years later I was curious about the area and went there on a long weekend trip, hoping for some nice images. Feeling small between the buildings of big companies, rising high up over the skyline of Paris. An alienating place, where human size did not seem to matter.

I am happy I am old enough to have worked with film and negatives. I still shoot black and white digital, but film is something different.
