England, Blakeney – January 2023
The Lens Artists Photo Challenge #233 is ‘a one lense walk‘. The first week of 2023 we had a short stay at Norfolk; the beauty of its coast and its wildlife gave ample opportunities for photos. The Nikon D500 has the 18-105 mm lens on it. The marshes on the quay of Blakeney around sunrise.

This week lens artists challenge #214 is ‘favourite finds’. When you explore a city you do not know you walk into places and buildings you know the name of, but have never seen. Sometimes that is a surprising find. Het Steen in Antwerp.

Lens Artists Photo Challenge #211 is ‘what is your groove’. Basically I enjoy looking around, up and down till something strikes me as interesting. And being cheeky at times, like here while having a little pause on the road trip at a service station.

The Lens-artists challenge #197 is ‘rule of thirds’. The rule of thirds is a rule of thumb how to compose images. There are more ‘rules’; another is the ‘s’ like in the photo above. Whatever rule you like to use: break them and tweak them till you are happy with the result of the photo you are putting together. In the end your gut tells a lot about what constitutes a decent picture to your liking.

This week lens artists photo challenge is ‘that special place‘. The empty branches of a tree in Winter. During this pandemic I realized that the immediate outside of my house is an inspiration for photos. During the seasons and days it is always nice to look out and sometimes catch a nice view. Looking back over the years I realize that I have always been intrigued by little details near the places where I lived. Making these places special in a certain way.

This week lens artists photo challenge is ‘that special place‘. The moon is a big inspiration for stories and songs. The Dark Side of the Moon is a brilliant album by Pink Floyd, Mad man Moon on Trick of the Tail by Genesis, R.E.M.’s Man on the moon, Moon over Bourbon Street by Sting are some of them. And of course a French folk song ‘Au clair de la lune’. And the moon has impact on our lives on this planet: the moon causes tides on seas, and apparently has impact on the menstrual cycle.
