Night Club Sign and Balconies in Rethymnon, Crete

Greece, Rethymnon – September 2016

LAPC 309 is about balconies. I have to admit that I do not pay special attention to balconies, unless they trigger me as I look around and they catch my eye. This in Rethymnon on Crete. A bit of a messy shot, but I spotted the sign of the night club (does one have to be envious to visit?) and the adjacent balconies and roof, mimicking the eye lashes of the club sign. A kind of eyebrows raised photo.

2nd Balcony Scene, but it’s not Shakespeare

LAPC 309 is about balconies. I have to admit that I do not pay special attention to balconies, unless they trigger me as I look around and they catch my eye. This in Rethymnon on Crete. My first entry was an original monochrome on film. With this one I could not decide between the original and the edited monochrome version. Hence you see them both. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Memory

England, Tideswell – May 2013

The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #160 is ‘Your Inspiration’.

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.

Patience

England, Tideswell – May 2013

The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #160 is ‘Your Inspiration’.

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.

Earth: Sky Blue

The weekly theme is ‘earth’. 

Lost my time lost my place in 
Sky blue
Those two blue eyes light your face in
Sky blue
I know how to fly, I know how to drown in
Sky blue

Warm wind blowing over the earth
Sky blue
I sing through the land, the land sings through me
Sky blue
Reaching into the deepest shade of
Sky blue

Sky blue
So tired of all this traveling
So many miles away from home
I keep moving to be stable
Free to wander, free to roam

Train pulled out said my goodbyes
Sky blue
Back on the road alone with the sky
Sky blue
There’s a presence here no one denies
Sky blue

Sky blue
So tired …..
